Soon and we'll save no more day light and alarm clocks will get much needed vacation while the light trust sends over to the bank and tells the cashier to reserve two extra vaults for increased profits.
 And, for once, let us hope, the farm CT will be satisfied.
 If they are, something will have been gained, for it will be the first time Hi ram Rube has been contented since the day a stone age genius invented the idea of scratching the earth with hooked stick.
 Of course the daylight saving hunch was all wrong. The Hon. Cong. Camp bell of Kansas (you can always bet on a guy like that coming out of Kansas proved it was a foolish bunch of crazy , notions. He proved it by the rooster.
 "The rooster begins growing at o'clock in the morning" the Hon. Campbell argued, and it is unfair to him to have him start at o'clock
 You bet it is-to the late sleepers. 1 So you see the daylight saving law was nothing more than an unwarrant | ed and unAmerican attack upon the l lroosters constitutional right to begin waking the neighborhood at 3 a. m. 1 Who. may we ask, did put across this nefarious bit of daylight saving | legislation?
 The golf players. That's who did it.
 The Hon. Cong. Bland of Indiana says so.
 Now just listen to him: Yes men who work short hours and want long afternoon for golf wanted the daylight savings law. We do not play golf down in our section of the country. Playing mumbley peg and i pitching horseshoes are among our finest sports
 Now we know why George Ade said. The smarter they are the quicker they beat it out of Indiana" So we soon hike back to mean as tronomical time, and then the rural debating societies will have left no de batting subject and the president will have nothing he can veto when he feels in vetoing mood.
 Most people, it seems. have acquired the understanding that the daylight repealer will make it illegal to get up early in the morning or to retire be- fore midnight. In this presumption they err.
 And furthermore you don't have to turn ahead your home clock or your : vest pocket watch if you don't want l to. You still may keep the same time r you did all summer, as far as the law l goes, and be an hour out of gear the rest of the day. For there is an unwritten amend : ment on the repealer. and herewith ;t T is published for the first time: S Be it provided. that nothing con l tained in the provisions above shall be
 construed to mean that a native, na- = turalized, or resident citizen of the . U. S. A. shall be denied the right O. : getting up as early in the morning as
 he sees fit and so desires" i Of course this is nothing else than a = hand-ou to the golf players, but i
 may be of use to those early birds who want to shovel snow off the sidewalk this winter.
 Which reminds us of John H. Whit
 more, New York lawyer, who reached
 the age of 100 by going to bed every
 evening at 6 o'clock.
 And Dr. Marcello Boldimi, Italy.
 greatest scientist, has discovered that
 the worlds greatest men are born be-
 tween Jan. and March l, months
 when there is the least daylight.
 Woodrow Wilson barely escaped be-
 coming a great man by being bor, December 2S.
 W. Howard Taft missed it a mil,
 with a September birthday. Same witt Gen. Jack Pershing. He unthoughtfulll picked September for birthda, month.
 If John D. Rockefeller. Jr.. hadn' chosen July for his natal month h might have become the greatest mal instead of the richest
