DAYLIGHT SAVING. Phlladelphia is the latest city to adept a daylight saving ordinance. Such is now law there and will apply between the last Sunday in March and the last Sunday in October when the clocks will be changed as they have been for the past two years The Quaker city has followed the action taken in New York city in re- sponse to the same sentiment that has brought about action in Jersey Cit Hartford and other cities. In Phila- +deiphia as in New York the question was raised as to what would be the #ffect of such action on the part of the city upen the surrounding cities and towns and in beth instances it was the maintained that it would re- suit in the smaller communities fol lewing the ceurse of the larger ones. In the east it thus appears that an {‘emcouraging start has been made in bebalf of the idea of continuing the benefits of daylight saving which, theugh it could of course be put into effect in individual cases at will, will gt the umited respomse that is re- quired to make it a success through erganised actien.

It has been one of the cit- ies that hag been suffering from the lack of fuel. Restrictions were im- posed there as elsewhere and in some respects more stringently than in many cities for they were applied to schools, churches and places of amuse- ment, and yet Kansas is one of the states that produce bituminous coal. But the situation in that state has shown decided improvement since the governor of that commonwealth de- cided that the production of coal could not remain halted. Knowing that the coal was to be had, that it was needed to keep industries going and to maintain comfort and being as- sured that there were many who were anxious to engage in {he work of dig- ging it Governor Allen took over the mines and set the state up in the bus- iness of coal production. The result is that though the workers are not experienced miners they are getting the coal out in sufficient quantities so Kansas City is already experi- encing relief and it is to be presumed that other cities of the state are like- wise feeling the good effects of the governor's action. His good ‘example has been followed in other states and had there not been a willingness shown on the part of the miners to accept the president's pro- posal there are good reasons to believe that a much more general operation of the miners would have been under- taken both by the government and by | states where mines are located. The | { fine points about mining may not be known. by the velunteer workers but| with certain experienced men guiding the workers coal can be obtained by unskilled hands when it becomes nec- sary.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Who Can Tell? Mr. Editor:. When Mr. Monigomery began to “extinguish” himself through the medium of the press, we wondered what his official status could be..Con- sultation of the staté register showed that he was“not even a member of the | school board of his town and the offi- cial annals of said town seem to be ominously silent about him. Then came the period of his “weather” and “seeds.” The public seems to be wary of “weather Elijah: healers and thé like, Although = not claiming any especial merit for his personal opinion, this writer assumes to ask if It would not be well for Mr. Montgomery to ‘achieve sothe _office from which. to_handle difficult matters of internatfonal policy. Oneé of the of- icers of his own town. a man of his own party, has assured me that the republicans of his town regard him as a “joke” and that they would not for a minute consider making him a_jus- tide of the peace. 3 Now for the “arguments” (so call- ed) whicli he admits are “unanswera- ble.” - One- would hardly suppose that they rise to the level of argument. As usual his logic is fauity. He begins y asserting that a man who- can wash lamps without breaking chim- neys and carry hods of coal without spilling the coal is abler than the president. No one is obliged to accept this on his say so. Beside he offers no.proo? that he doesn't break chim-! neys und his ‘neighbors.are decidedly of the opinion that “spilling over’ is his best hold. As for the president’s “mighty plea” no- one ever supposed jt to be mighty. As for electing a democratic cangress the American people have done it sev- eral times and survived the shock. As for the American ~incompetents at Versailles, there are among the Amer- ican people, state governors, represen- tatives in congress, United States sen- ors, justices of the supreme court sen ace high above lamp washing and coal heaving who do not consider them indompetent at all.
