 FUR COURT

According to good authority, the term of court to be held at Cordova, which is called for July IT, primarily is for the purpose of allowing persons who have taken out their first natu- ralization papers to become full citi. zens, and to give others who wish to become Americans a chance to take out their first papers,

HOLLAND PLANS ID SAVE BY
 CHANGING CLOCK

THE HAGUE, Netherlands, June IA. Holland expects to save approxi- mately $2,00O,O0O annually through its new summer time" or daylight saving scheme, which went into effect at mid night of April 30. Parliaments act, comprising one short article, was adopted by both chambers with only few minutes discussion. and 6,000,- GOO people are rising an hour earlier and retiring an hour earlier. Aside from the financial gain, much is eX- pected to result in the way of bene- ficial influence on the nations health.
 The change was effected with minimum of inconvenience, and there were few late corners in schools and factories on the first morning of the new regime. By curious oversight, the big clock of the Palace of Peace at The Hague was seen to be still in dicating the old-time on May Day morning.
 The one industrial sphere in which objections are raised is the agricul- tural world, and a number of farmers in Friesland and elsewhere are evinc- ing an inclination to regulate their activities by the old time. Earlier milking, for instance, is not in the interests of the milk yield, while much disadvantage Is anticipated in the har- vesting months. The earlier working hour will, it is declared. be useless. as moving and other operations are then impossible owing to the damp
