TOLEDO’S FINE ELECTRIC FLAG

The Toledo (O.) courthouse was one of the first public buildings in America on which was erected an electrically lighted flag to carry its lesson of patriotism by night as well as by day. The electric flag was originated by E. L. Frantz of Cleveland, and a number of cities have adopted the idea.
