EASTERN
Time Is Urged For Entire
State Of Ohio
Legislature May Be Asked
To Take Action

Eastern time for all Ohio is to be
proposed in bill to be introduced
in the legislature next month. Cleve-
land adopted eastern time last May
and several cities in northern Ohio
Immediately did likewise. The rest
of the state retained central time
which by law Is official.
"Cleveland's experience under east
ern time has been SO successful that
opponents of the move to change all
Ohio to that time have hardly leg
to stand H." said Munson Havens, Sec
retary of the Cleveland chamber of
commerce.
"The advantage Of eastern time in
Cleveland is proved this winter. 1t
is now daylight until we quit our of.
fees, whereas last year we used elec.
trio lights from until o'clock. This
is only one Of the innumerable bene.
fits the city has gained by having
adopted eastern time.
IF referendum were to be taken
on the question of retaining eastern
time, believe 1t would carry 10 to l.
This is the reason we will try to have
the legislature pass bill making
eastern time the official time for all
Ohio"
Secretary Havens also said that in
February the Cleveland chamber
would join in more daylight
movement before the United States
chamber Of commerce. This is the
movement which was approved in
to stand on" said Munson Havens
secretary of the Cleveland chamber
OF commerce.
Cleveland delegates to the nation
al chamber certainly will endorse the
proposition Of bringing eastern time
as far west as the Mississippi" Mr.
Havens asserted.
The change from central to eastern
time was made by Cleveland May
after more daylight" crusade OF
several years. In this project the
chamber of commerce had the sup
port of every newspaper in the city
and of nearly every business house
and factory. Council passed an ordi
nance designating eastern time and
at midnight, April 30, all clocks were
pushed one hour ahead.
Stores, schools, churches, theatres
and other institutions continued tc
open and close at the same hours by
the clock as they had done under cen
tral time.
Interurban lines and two railroads
changed from central to eastern time
but through east and west railways
clung to central.

COMB SAGE TEA IN

If Mixed with Sulphur it Darkens SO Naturally Nobody
 can Tell.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti- fully darkened, glossy and abundant with a brew of Sage Tea and Sul- pbur Whenever her hair fell out or took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. By asking at any drug store fo. "Wy- eth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Reme- dy." you will get a large bottle of this old time recipe. ready to use, for about 50 cents. This simple mix ture can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair and is splendid for dandruff, dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
 A well-knOWn downtown druggist says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied-its so easy to use, too. You simply dam pen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair taking one strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, it is restored to it's natural color and looks glossy, soft and abundant.-Agents, Busy Store and Bear Drug Store-Adver- tisement.

THE RAINBOW OF PROMISE

And the Lord said in his heart, will not again curse the ground any more for mans sake; for the imagin- ation of mans heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
 While the earth remaineth, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
 And God blessed Noah and his sons. And God spake unto Noah and to his sons with him, saying, And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you; and with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cat tie, and of every beast of the earth with you: from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth. will establish my covenant with you neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of q flood; neither shall there any more be flood to destroy the earth.
 And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make be- tween me and you and every living creature that is with you, for per- petual generations; do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of covenant between me and the earth.
 And it shall come to pass, when bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud: and I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years. And all the days of Noah were nine hun- dred and fifty years.-Genesis viii q, P; ix, 1, 8-15, 2S, 29.

HAS BEEN RUNNING MORE
 THAN YEAR WITH SUCCESS
Fixes Auto Stage Between Phoenix
 and Mesa Has Celebration

Freeman Fike, owner and manager of the Fike stage line that plies reg ularly between Phoenix, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, has nine cars running reg ularly running on scheduled trips be- tween the cities named. Last night for the first time in a long time eight of the cars happend in Phoenix at the same time, and immediately bright idea struck the hustling manager. He lined up the eight Ford cars in front of headquarters oppo- ard ran all over the city, drawing all sorts of attention to his com mendable enterprise.
 This stage line has been operating but little more than a year now. It started with one car, making four round trips daily. Now there are nine cars running regularly, and over thirty trips are made daily between the valley towns. Eleven men are constantly employed by the concern and the payroll amounts to more than s240 per week. The trips are made every thirty minutes.
 Mr. Fike says that he is endeavor- ing to give the people of the valley transportation service and that the
 number of cars running will be in creased from time to time as the business justifes it, just as has been the habit of the past. When the line first opened it was suggested that it was a 'fliver' This has been disproved. Instead it has been found to be a most decided success.
