YOU Ii GET UP EARLIER
BUT YOU WON'T KNOW IT
Under Daylight Saving Plan
Which Bill Passed the House.

Clocks all over the country will be
set ahead one hour beginning March 81
under the so-called daylight saving bill
passed Friday by the House 262 to 40.
Senator Calder, author of the meas
ure in the upper branch of Congress,
said immediately he thought the House
amendment should be agreed to so that
a conference would not be necessary. 5
The bill provides that at o'clock
p. m. on the last Sunday in March
each year, clocks all over the country
which affect any operation of the fed
eral government or railroads, shall be
set ahead one hour. At 2 O'Clock p.
M, the last Sunday in October of each
year they are to be retarded one hour.
All business relating in any way to the
federal government will be conducted
on the time set Further inducement
for its use by everyone is given in des-
ignating the time in the various zones
as United States standard Eastern time,
United States Standard Central time,
etc
lnasmuch as commercial and labor
organizations the country over have
petitioned for the bill, Congress ex-
poets general agreement with the law
everywhere. The FIVE zones are to be
fixed by order of the Interstate Com
merce Commission. But it is directed
!, in the bill to haye "due regard" for
present railroad classification. The I'M
official understanding is that no import
ant change Is to be made in present ar
rangement. There will be Eastern,
Central, Mountain, Pacific and Alaskan
time.
Representative Dewalt, of Pennsyl-
vania, said that under daylight say
ing" France had saved ten million
dollars and Great Britain S12, 1000, 900,
which would have been used in Lighting
in five and one-half months.
Most of the unfayorable votes were
from farming districts.

THE SAVINGS HABIT

NAEING a dollar and investing it
shows more patriotism than sing
~ ing the Star Spangled Banner 1t
is serving the country, by increasing its
capital and promoting its thrift. There
is no one who works but can engage in
this patriotic effort But it depends
upon the person. Some will save a dol
lar out of ten a week while others will
go in debt on twenty. So the last anal
ysis is the resolution to save, and then
if little self-denial is needed to sup
port the resolution, so much the bet
ter. Saving promotes character; makes
better citizenship; increases the gen
eral happiness. Just as soon as a man
begins to save little out of his wages,
he is making a better man of himself;
and this is largely so, because he is
thereby promoting the public good.
Whether your income is little or big,
save.
James J. Hill said IF YOU want to
know whether YOU are going to sue
coed the test is easy. Are YOU able to
save money! If not, drop ont. You
will surely lose. You may not think it,
but you will lose as sure as YOU live. ~
Once get the saving habit and, unless
you are an exception to the general
rule. YOU will find that saving money is
as easy as spending money.

The young man who squanders his
youth in riotous living, expecting
chances of luck to bring him a fortune
later in life, should scan these figures
and learn that he has just nine chances
in one hundred to ever accumulate
S., 900 or more, and that if he is to be
one of the fortunate ones he must be-
gin early to save.
The individual who has back of him
a savings bank account, to be depend
ed upon in any emergency, is morally,
as we'll as financially, a better citizen
than the one who lives from hand to
mouth and is researches. The head
Of family who has laid up something
for rainy day in the bank, or in some
other way, faces the future with more
spiritual and moral confidence than
the one who is living on from day to
day trusting to luck or his friends or
society to help him out if he falls vic
tim Of sickness OF unemployment.
1t is easy enough to live up to your
income, whether YOU earn SIS a week
or SIS, 900 year, and by the way you
settle this question you settle your
fate. If you save part Of your earnings
YOU will achieve independence. If YOU.
spend all you make you will be a wage
slave as long as YOU live, for it is not so
much what we make as what we save

TAPS

Taps have sounded over Newark,
The name of new hero has been
added to local history, and all the
community shares in the grief and
pride that surrounds a soldiers
death.
Thorough sportsman that he
was, Al O'Daniel has gone west
with his faith toward the goal of
a day when might shall no longer
mean right and justice shall pre-
vail among the nations.
Full of enthusiasm and love of
his country; full of strength and
daring; so childlike in his SYM
plicity and so bold in his concep-
ton, he typified all that American
manhood on the fields of France
means to the world. He died as he
lived. showing a keen relish in the
joy of life, yet ready and eager to
do a mans part in the great strug-
gle.
The war must be won. May the
sacrifice of this young mans life
bring deeper spirit of consecra-
tiOn to us all.

It is probable that owing to the

Students will ordinarily not be
permitted to remain on duty in the
college units after the majority of
their fellow citizens of like age
have been called to military service
at camp. Exception to this rule
will be made, as the needs of the
service require it, in the case of
technical and scientific students,
who will be assigned for longer
periods for intensive study in spec
ialized fields.
No units of the Students Army
Training Corps will, for the pre-
sent, be established at secondary
schools, but it is hoped to provide
at an early date for the extension
of military instruction in such
schools. The secondary schools are
urged to intensity their instruc-
tion so that young men II to IS
years old may be qualified to enter
college as promptly as possible.
There will be both a collegiate
section and vocational section Of
the Students Army Training
Corps. Young men of draft age of
grammar school education, will be
given opportunity to enter the vo-
cational section of the corps. At
present about 27,500 men are called
for this section each month. APP
plication for voluntary induction
into the vocational section should
be made to the local board and an
effort will be made to accommodate
as many as possible of those who
volunteer for this training.
Men in the vocational section
will be rated and tested by the
standard army methods and those
who are found to possess the re-
quisite qualifications may be as
signed for further training in the
collegiate section.
In view of the comparatively
short time during which most Of
the student-soldiers will remain in
college and the exacting military
duties awaiting them, academic in
'struction must necessarily be modi-
fed along lines of direct military

dents enrolled, the ratio having
been fixed by the government as
one officer to every rs students.
A number Of interesting facts
were set forth by DR.. Samuel C.
Mitchell in an interview last night.
He called attention to the fact tn.
more than 100 students will have
received training in Newark dur
ing the year, beginning July l.
During the Summer School 200
were registered, 125 have enrolled
at the Women's College, and at
Delaware college aggregating the
students in the regular courses and
those in the s weeks courses, ap-
proXimately 1900 technicans and
$50 officers will have received
training.
Another interesting feature is
the fact that a great number of
Delaware families who have NOV
ed out of the state are sending
their boys back to Delaware Col
lege, thus illustrating the homing
instinct in times of stress and the
desire to stand united as a state in
this crisis. He stated also that it
seemed providential that the en-
largement program made possible
through the generosity of Pierre
dupont and of the Delaware Legis-
lature should have been carried
out in time to enable Delaware to
take such prominent part in the
work outlined by the government.
He commended highly the work
of the State Council of Defense in
their patriotic achievement of
arousing the interest and enthus-
iasm of the people of Delaware by
bringing the facts concerning the
Student Army Training Corps to
the attention of the people of the
state.
Additional facts concerning the
government program are contained
in the following extracts from
statement by Robert l. Rees, chair
man of the Committee on Educa-
tion and Special Training.
The student soldiers will be
given military instruction under
officers of the army and will be
kept under observation and test to
determine their qualification as Off
Ger candidates and technical ex-
perts such as engineers, chemists
and doctors. After certain period
the men will be selected according
to their performance, and assigned
to military duty in one of the fol-
lowing ways:
(a) He may be transferred to
central officers training camp.
(b) He may be transferred to a
non-commissioned officers training
school.
(c) He may be assigned to the
school where he is enrolled for
further intensive work in a speci-
fed line for limited specified
time.
CD He may be assigned to the
vocational training section of the
corps for technician training of
military value.
(e) He may be transferred to a
cantonment for duty with troops as
a private.
Similar sorting and reassign-
ment of the men will be made at
periodical intervals, as the require
ments of the service demand. It
cannot be now definitely stated
how long particular student will
remain at college.
