DAYLIGHT SAVING
Clocks Throughout Country VIII be
Set Eack One Hour March 10

When Sunday. March so. arrives.
the clocks in this cit:: and all parts
Of the corntry will be set forward one
horr, in accordance with the daylight
saving act, which was effective for
the first time last year, and which
continues in effect indefinitely, or
until Congress otherwise provides.
On Sunday, October 26, all the clocks
will be set back one hour.
The impression exists in some
quarters, it has been learned. that
the daylight saving act was only for
one year, and that Congress must
act again if the measure is to be af-
fective this year That is wrong,
however, The law says:
THAT at 9 o'clock antemeridian
of the last Sunday in March of each
year the standard time shall be
advanced one hour, and at ? o'clock
antemeridian of the last Sunday in
October the standard time shall. by
the letarding Of one hour. be 'e-
turned"
There was an agitation last fail to
have Congress pass another law
establishing the time under the day
light saving act as the standard time.
ard have it continue the year round.
But the movement was given rp.
Sunday morning, March 80. at 2
o'clock precisely, the clocks are all
supposed to be moved forward. As 4
practical matter. however, most
clocks Will be set ahead earlier Sat-r-
day night, so that when their owners
wake Sunday morning their time
pieces will be right.
The daylight saving law gave much
satisfaction during last year, since
it enabled men and women who work
to get cut of their Offices and away
from their jobs while the sun was
still shining. Unless the law IS re-
pealed,. each year will find the clocks
turned forward one hour the last
Sunday in March.

EX-K AiSER'S FLUCTUATIONS

Kaiser Wilhelm had birthday the
other day, and though defeated and
axiled, ne received more bouquets ARD
CONGRATULATIONS than President Wilson
did on his, if we may judge from such
accounts Is have come 70 US. 1t IS true
that some of the messages sent him
were not polite, but even the European
singers Of mud at the Kaiser were no:
nearly so mu:h in evidence on that
one day as the Senatorial rotten-egg-
crs Of the President are almost every
day in the week. Which provokes the
inquiry, is the Kaiser still as popular
in Germany as the President is in the
United States?
4 dispatch from The Hague de-
clares that the Kaiser has recently re-
gained much of his former popularity.
AZ several political meetings in Her-
lin lately he has been checred. "Dr.
Naub, speaking in the Circus Busch
for the German National party, open
Cd the meeting with cheer for the
exKaiseF, 4Whichs,t!wasfsss sfssseda With with
laundering applause, lasting several
minutes, and also withveheersnfor Won
Tirpi.z and Ludendorff:" It is noted
also that the Reichbcte sent a loyalty
address signed by thousands of people
for the Ex-Kaiser's birthday The
German Peoples party also sent a
telegram Of congratulations and loyal
ty, and in the Prussian municipalities
the school children had holiday OF
the occasion of the birthday. ."--Balti-
