Excerpt from The Illuminating Engineer, Vol. 15: The Journal of Scientific Illumination; Official Organ of the Illuminating Engineering Society (Founded in London 1909); Jan. 1922 to Dec. 1922

It is agreed that much might be done by the improvement of existing lighting conditions, to make London amore cheerful place in the evening. But discrimination in the use of light should be shown.
