Title: Electric supply for country towns. (Illustrated)
In: Commonwealth Engineer
Imprint: vol. 2, no. 1, Aug 1914, pp. 56-59
Abstract: The flexibility of electric current makes it extremely suitable for country towns for lighting and power, and numerous installations have been made. The Mildura, Victoria, installation has been chosen for the subject, not because of any special feature in plant, but of difficulties met with and successfully surmounted. It was one of the pioneer installations. Electric power plants require no more professional attention than other similar undertakings, and the author holds the view that country town schemes can be made to pay well.

"... the rengitj, as a visible mark or imprint on the land, is characterised as a place of origin, the repository of all names, as well as a kind of mapped visual expression of the connection between people and places which is to be carried out in the temporal sequence of the journey."
