It may be sion What person any use for an- Wastes the early morning other who its light. The ideal worker gets up the morning eager to “go to it.”” He is late at his work; he wastes no in doing little un- necessary things, nor in dallying along the street. He is far happier and his work is far better done if he goes to it straight and gives his best until it is done. in not precious minutes energies to it Standard time is no more “God's Time' than is DayMght Saving time, be it said in all reverence. If one were to heed the argument that “God’'s time is good enough for me and we have always gone by it,”” one would reply that God's time to do a duty is the moment one is able to do that thing. Of course people camouflage the matter by saying a man may work in his garden or may do some other ad- vantageous thing with that extra hour of sunlight in the morning. Al very well—but the average man does not do it. He wastes that hour. He becomes less fitted for his real work o! the day. Arguments against Daylight Saving time are made because of the “gener- al mix-up” it causes when all eom- munities do not use the same time. Let the general “mix-up' come for a year or so. “General mix-ups’ have come whenever any new plan has been adopted. Never is it wise to stick by an old plan, after its dis- advantagés have been shown, merely because a few refuse to recognize the value of the new plan and to adopt it. We must not be held back from taking advantage of the better things because of a few. Rather, we should persevere in our advocacy of the new, Better plan.gnd bring the backward to our p of view.

Several thermometers in different parts of the city registered as low as three degrees below zero at 5 o'clock this morning. At noon they regis- tered 12 degrees above. The leading candidates for the re- publican nemination for town elerk are Frank Johnson, Colonel Thomp- son .and Frank 8. Cadwell. Last week’s payroll for the street department amounted to $79.11.

By establishing such a system more interest would be stimulated ameng ont eitizens in civic affairs, and they would be guided by clear thinking and acting in matters which directly concern themselves.

At such ward meetingy affairs of the ward eould be discussed and very good materia] ecould be found to represent the ward in the city council. The councilmen would benefit by such interest in the right sentiments of their mm’- ents.
