Unpleasant as it is to do it, it seems that a flnal word as to light sav- time would be of advantage at thig time. As suggested in these columns many times it is rather wise to examine a matter while it is in the public eye, to make notes and obser- vations in order that, when the thing up for discussion again, long it has abandoned, the memory of “how it worked" may be refreshed, We went to work under the time. We will con- tinue to do this for the next few months. In justice to the plan, to ourselves and to the community we ought to watch how the thing works out and *jot down"” our conclusions.
