Almanacs, tide-tables and astron-
omical tables already printed for the
year 1918 will become obsolete when
the daylight saving law goes into ef-
feet at 2 o'clock Sunday morning, for
at that time 2 o'clock will suddenly
become 8 o'clock and the tide will be
an hour late in arriving at the flood.
BY setting the clock ahead Fargo
will be able to open offices, churches,
and factories an hour earlier. But
the moon, the tide. and the sun will
persist in following their original
schedules.
We will all lose one hour OF sleep
tonight, which, If We adhere
strictly to the daylight saving plan,
will not be made up until the night
Of October 1927, when the clocks will
be turned back again.
Two hundred and ten hours of day
light will be saved by the plan, one
hour each day, between March 80 and
October "a.
w. Adolphe Roberts, formerly Of
the Paris Eagle bureau, was in Spain
when the plan was first proposed
there, and was a spectator Of a most
practically the entire Spanish press. Fl
Germany, England, and France had
already adopted the scheme and POr-
tugal was about to do ii. The Span
ish papers flew into rage and con-
jured up the most horrible pictures
Of calamity should the plan be adopt
ed in Spain.
One paper prophesied that thou
sands Of babies would die because OF
IT,. Why? Forsooth, because cows
who had been accustomed to giving
their milk at certain hours all their
lives would refuse TO do so at any
other.
They also predicted that Spanish
land owners would work their labor
to death under daylight saving con-
dttions.
'arhey always work their men un-
til dark, anyway and If they get
them up an hour earlier they will
squeeze an extra hours work out Of
them every day." they said.
The fact that Spanish time is large
ly kept by old fashioned clocks pre-
scented another obstacle. These
clocks are for the most part of the
striking variety and ii was predicted
that il any attempt was ever made
to turn them back past the hour they
would all go to smash.
Other papers said that the whole
scheme was obviously wicked, be-
cause 1t was plainly an attempt to
change a law OF God. They said that
IL would only be considered in revolu-
tionary countries like Portugal, for
whom the Spanish have a profound
contempt.
In France, on the other hand, thG
plan was accepted with glee. The
Parisians. fond Of their outdoor cafe
tables, found that they could sit out
OF doors IN the summer until nearly
3 o'clock. That was enough to rec
ommend the plan to them.

Two Distinct Armies.
Assignments OF duty have been
made to these various commanders
consisting of definite assessments
against the members OF their regi-
ments. The enemy" that is to be
encountered and overcome in this
drive 10 divided into two distinct
armies. The first is fighting the
soldiers and sailors at the front and
dnus allegtanc8 under the banners
OF want misery, disease. suffering
and death. The other army and that
with which we are more closely en-
gaged in this offensive follows the
ensigns Of apathy, indifference. dis
LOYALTY. selfishness, penury and
treachery.
Service Twofold Nature.
Service In the Red Cross armies is
Of twofold nature, finding express
sion in personal service and money
contribution. The women enrolled in
this army have fulfilled and are still
fulfilling their full share In the per-
sonal service division and to a large
extent also, this is true of the men
serving in the campaign as above
enumerated.
These men are now charged with
the duty Of contributing their money
and obtaining from every LOYAL cliff
zen Of Fargo a contribution COM
mensurate with their financial re-
sources as determined by the finance
committee Of the Red Cross. The re-
suits OF this campaign should classi-
f. with reasonable accuracy those
who are supporting the Allies i'm this
war and those who are not.
The regimental commanders who
have reported to the war board of
the Red Cross have enthusiastically
entered into the preliminary offens-
i've. have accepted the assignments
as made by the board for contribu-
tons by their respective regiments
and there is every assurance they
VIII advance to victory.
