TWILIGHT SAVING
PASSES IN NIGHT,
NEVER To RETURN
Fr0greSSVeS Turn Watches
Ahead Eleven Hours While
others Adopt Safer Plan of
Turning 1t Back Houh'

Western Union clocks in $50 stores
and offices in Albuquerque will be
turned back automatically early this
morning in compliance with she eX-
piration of the daylight saving act.
The turning back viii be started at
O'Clock, daylight saving time, and will
take about thirty minutes as the mas
ter clock IN the Western Union Tele-
graph company's office can be set
backward only two minutes at a time.
Persons who haven't Western
Union clocks, however. VIII have to
turn lack their own timepieces by
hand The operation appears to he
comparatively simple but several die
ferent plans We're suggested, One
was turning the hands ahead eleven
hours. This was recommended for
persons who abhor the thought of go
ing backward ... "
The most favored plan seemed to
be retardng the family chronometer
before going to bed that is, before
the family went to bed; not the clock.
although since the piping days of pro-
hihition the police no longer have to
deal with persons who tried to wind
themselves up and put the clock to
bed. The underlying idea Of this
method was that you gained an extra
hours snooze Another was that it
gave reasonable assurance Of your
being on time for church or the base
ball game.
The Santa Fe railway planned to
change its time promptly and al
trains arriving here today viii be
running on the non-dayhght saving
schedule~-the one observed by the
solar system and ROSTERS as far back
as the oldest timer can remember
Train No was to be held here an
hour, and to be sent out on the new
time, other trains were to be held
an hour at the first terminal reached
after the change.
The passing Of daylight saving is
permanent unless congress changes
its mind. year ago It simply went
into Information and came 20 life
again in the spring, but its going
early today was its final departure,
Tho act providing for daylight saving
was repealed by congress.

WASTE NOT YOUR WASTE

HHE definition of waste is apprcciably
= narrowed by the war which the De-
partment of Commerce, in conjunction
with the national "Clean-Up and Paint
Up Campaign Bureau of the Savings
Division of the United States Treasury,
has declared on the city dump. That in
stitution is notorious prodigal. How
extravagant are its destructive methods
is demonstrated by the governments
plan to exchange war-savings stamps
for sufficient quantities of trash" gath
cred together as result of the spring
house cleaning.
Old paper is especially valuable The
practice of burning it on the dump has
been glaring example Of American ex-
travagance. England was cured of this
sort of wanton destruction during the
war. The opportunity of the American
housewife is now at hand. She can aug
ment her collection of war.savings
stamps, make the cellar neat and at the
same time aid the government if she
deals with the "Clean-Up" agents who
viii visit her.
The individual who will venture to call
anything worthless trash" NOWADAYS is
likely to be way of in his economies.

ROUND OUT THE GREAT EVENT

FTsHE indications that sixty per cent of
= the Iron Division will be disembarked
here adds stimulating dramatic factor
to thsssnomentous celebration to which
the whole city looks forward The pa
rade of the entire Twenty-eighth will, of
course. be the supreme event. but a real
homecoming directly to the shores of
the Delaware must inevitably intensity
the thrills. The river pageant will be
foretaste.
The present plans, however. will to a
certain extent preserve the thread of
the story. As a great port, Philadelphia
has right to demand that this conti-
nuity be maintained as much as possible
Perhaps with little more pressure the
government may be still more accommo-
dating.
The obvious ideal would be the landing
Of the entire Iron Division and then
after brief camp sojourn, the superh
parade. That combination would con-
stitnte real homecoming.

1t is foreshadowed that the question OF
removing from the memorial the boards
which have covered it since Secretary
Baker advised against dedicating it in
1917 will come up before the German

of sensible reasoning can justify the
juxtaposition of discredited and incor-

IN THE EXPERIMENTAL STAGE

TT REMAINS to be proved that mar
= ket where the farmers will come in
direct contact with the consumer will be
more satisfactory than the parcel post
system of delivering country produce 10
city customers.
The city is to permit curb markets
this year where fruit and vegetables may
be sold by the farmers. If they sue
ceed, market houses will be arranged
in which the produce may be exposed
for sale.
But the federal government is trying
to build Up a parcel post business in
butter, eggs, chickens and other farm
products. 1t will carry green corn and
new onions and the like if this sort of
stuff is offered, and it will deliver every
thing at the door of the purchaser in the
city.
The purpose Of the two plans is to
bring the producer and consumer into
closer contact and to prevent the cost of
living from soaring too high. 1t is i'm
possible to say, except after experiment,
which plan is the best. Perhaps they
can both be worked. Next fall data
enough will be accumulated to guide the
city authorities in developing the mar
kethouse plan.

There is pressing need in Harrisburg
for a rhetorician. We do not mean
man who will sling burning words all
about the air of the Capitol. There
are enough such now. But a man
is needed to apply the elementary rules
Of rhetoric to the construction of the
bills before the General Assembly.
For example, his services are seriously
needed by the men backing the Salus
bill The title of that measure reads in
this way:
An act authorizing municipalities. with
the consent of the electors duly obtained
at an election, to Use money borrowed or
authorized to be borrowed for purposes
which have proved impractical, or impossi-
BILE, or unnecessary, for any lawful pur-
pose.
We suppose that this is intended to
mean that when it has been found impos-
slble to spend money for the purpose for
which it has been set aside the voters
may authorize its use for any other law
full purpose, but it does not say this.
There are children in the grammar
schools who could correct this title so
that it would say what it means. But
if we had state rhetorician such SLOW
emily English would not be allowed to
appear in the printed bills
BY all means let US have an expert in
English in Harrisburg. He would save

present burdens.

hell they deserve il the world believes
that it can contend in the future with a
hell in the heart and center of Europe.
Even the tories at Paris have begun to
perceive that this latter arrangement
might be uncomfortable and highly dam
gerous in the near future. So the diplo-
matists Of the old world now face the
difficult business of going home without
most of the things they have promised
their peoples as slight recompense for
the horrors of the last four years. The
fault is. in the final analysis, with the
war. 1t lasted too long and destroyed
too much. &
America has stood consistently upon
the pledge given to the world when we
entered the war. The small nations
everywhere and all peoples who seek
justice and peace have based their hopes
upon our promises. Even in some of the
Allied nations there are millions who,
with waning faith in their own leaders,
still depend upon America to insure
them, somehow, against the hideous
prospect of another war.
To what extent can the American rep
resentatives compromise with official
groups whose aims are not so great as
their own in order to make peace which
may be safe and at least constructive
even if it is not ideal?
To what extent shall we abandon our
solemn pledges in order to insure the
stability of hard pressed governmental
institutions and to avoid an inconclusive
peace that would leave the world again
to fall apart in lawless units?
These are questions that appear to
have harassed the American peace dele
gates almost since the day of their ar
rival in Paris. But a graver question
confronts them now. If they should ever
decide to withdraw from the Peace Con-
ference to maintain, by this desperate
alternative, the validity of the principles
for which we fought, could they be sure
that they would not, by their example,
give aid and comfort to the forces that
seek to destroy all government in
Europe?
The Americans at Paris have to make
decisions more momentous, perhaps,
than any ever before made in the history
of government.

Water is wondrous blessing,
Great for washing nccks and ears;
