RAILROAD T0 SAVE DAYLIGHT APRIL 30 Action Forced by Mass. and New York States It has been definitely decided by the management of the New Haven road to operate train schedules un- der the daylight saving plan. This will be inaugurated on Sunday, April 30, and will continue until the last Sunday in September. The New Haven finds it practical to put through trains on daylight saving because New York city and Massa- chusetts both have daylight saving and it is reported that the city of Providence is to adopt it also. Last year the New Haven observed the spirit rather than the letter of the daylight saving. It set ps nger train schedules ahead one hour, but operat- ed all trains on eastern standard time. An example of how the New Haven road accepts the daylight saving in spirit rather than in form follows. The Knickerbocker Limited now leaves New York and Boston at 1 p. m. Its leaving time will be changed on the time table to 12 o'clock noon, so that it will leave at 1 o’clock by daylight saving time. ON CREPE, LONG CLOTH 19¢ value.

The New Haven, however, advises its pa- trons to get new time tables, which will be ready in a few days before daylight saving goes into effect, Oper- ating exigencies keep all changes in train schedules from being made by exactly one hour. In some cases there will be differences of a few minutes more or less than an exact hour, so that new time tables will be neces- sary if trains are not to be missed.
