The British House of Commons has
passed Il bill To put all clocks ahead
eighty minutes during the summer
months. They have way over in
the tight little island of getting rid
of troublesome bill By passing IL
and then handing 1t over to com.

ca we let the committee do all tho
work. thus giving the members OF
Congress more time to distribute
seeds and campaign literature.
While IL is doubtful whether the
Pcarce Daylight Saving Bill will ever
become law. the idea Is worthy of
deep consideration. A system where
by man may get up at 7:40 in the
morning and think he is sleeping till
nine needs no defense at our hands.
