ONE HOUR AHEAD

On April 25th at o'clock A. NJ. the
City Of Augusta will adopt the So
called Daylight Saving plan and
carry out the practically unanimous
sentiment expressed in various ways
by the people of the city. In COM
pliance with the following prociama-
ton issued yesterday afternoon by
Mayor Burleigh Martin the clocks in
the city will be set ahead one hour.
- Augusta, Maine, April 23d, 1920
In response to the resolutions pass
ed by the City Council and the ex-
pressed desire by petition or other
wise of a large majority of the cit
liens of Augusta, and of the express
ed wish of practically every manu-
featuring industry of this city, and
ALSO because of the fact. that nearly
all other Maine cities and the electric
railroads have adopted, or are about
to adopt. this plan, it has been de-
cided to put into effect Gin, Augusta,
the so called Daylight Saving Plan"
This plan of adopting by different
localities has not appealed to me very
strongly, because of possible confu-
sion and other Inconvenience, but,
the evident wish of the citizens Is for
the adoption of this plan.
Therefore, in conformity with the
vote of the City Council the City
Clocks will, on Sunday. April 25th at
A. M. be put ahead one hour and
the business of the city will be con-
Quoted upon the time arrangement
which will then be in effect,
RITRJ ,EIGH MARTIN
Mayor.
With Gardiner and Hallowell
adopting this plan and Waterville to
adopt 1t in May, Augusta, in con-
forming to the plan is doing only
what is rlghtfully expected to bring
unity of time between these cities.
BY the survey made by members
Of the City Council to find approx
imately the sentiment of the citizens
Of the city i'm regard to the adoption
of the plan it was found that there
was hardly a dissenting voice in the
whole city. Practically every manu-
featuring plant expressed their desire
for the plan and through petition and
by word of mouth and otherwise 1t
was found that the majority of the
citizens were in hearty accord with
the adoption of the plan.
The Androscoggin & Kenncbec
Street Railway Co. in compliance
with the plan is to set it's clocks
ahead one hour at midnight on Sat
urday. April Gath.
The Augusta Merchants Associa-
ton have set their sanction on the
plan by announcing that all stores
and places of business will begin
Monday morning on the new time.
The citizens of the city are urged
to set their clocks and watches ahead
one hour on Saturday night before
they retire. They will lose one
hours sleep in the morning but will
regain it again in October when the
standard time will again become eff
fective. .-

UNITARIANS TO MAKE
INDEPENDENT DRIVE
FOR CHURCH FUNDS

The prudential committee of the Uni
tartan church held meeting at Library
hall Friday evening . which time ar
rangements for carrying on meetings ut
the church were made.
The matter of the Interchurch World
Movement was brought up for discus
made to the press by Rev. william
Charming Brown for the prudential COM
mittee:
LAS representing the prudential COM
mittee of the Unitarian church of Wa
terville, I desire to make a few mat
ters plain respecting our attitude to-
ward the drive for funds by the Inter-
church World Movement, which Is
scheduled for the coming week.
g l. We have nothing but good will
for any Christian work of this nature
and we wish our brethren of the evan
gelical churches abundant success IN
their enterprise. For all the good they
can do we have nothing but applause.
y. AS the Unitarans are, by the con-
stitution of the 1nterchurch World
Movement, excluded from membership
and participation in its councils, we do
not feel called upon to take part in
promoting or to suggestto other unita,
rians to contribute to these funds.
49, We would not however. take Il
merely negative attitude when the doing
of good is afoot. Therefore we are
next week, to conduct drive for funds
to support the Unitarian church of Wa
tervile for the coming year. This
church has served the community for
81 years. 1t has had able and beloved
pastors and we should hold it a calam-
ity to have it's usefulness end or be in
any way abated. There will be oppor-
tunity as the canvassers for the Unita-
rian church call upon members and
friends, to contribute to the American
Unitarian Association, which body is
responsible for our home and foreign
mission work-work in Japan, India and
Hungary as we'll as home missions in
the United States al Canada"
Pledges or contributions may he given
or sent to Frank Redington, Everett c.
Wardwell, Charles A. Allen or to Mr.
Brown at the Elmwood Hotel Contri-
buttons toward the painting of the
church and parish hose will also be
gratefully received.

ROTARY CLUB
HEARS ABOUT
COAL SITUATION

A very interesting talk on the coal sit
uation given by Sidney A. Green of the
firm of S. A. & A. b. Green was the
feature of the Rotary meeting Friday
evening at the Elmwood Hotel The
meeting was presided over by George
F.. Fose. vice president. in the absence
Of the president. Arthur J. Roberts OF
Colby. j. Howard Welch was admitted
to membership in the club s. f. Whit
comb and Charles A. Pooler of the
board Of assessors were guests of DR..
A. Jolly at the luncheon and meeting.
Ivan Lang, secretary of the Rotary
Club of Augusta, was present and ar.
rangements were perfected for the visit
of the club to Augusta on Friday eve
ming next. A large majority of the men,
bers will take the trip.
Fred j. Arnold, who has recently re-
turned from a winter in California,
spoke briefly of his visit in the west,
and Sidney A. Green gave talk on
the coal situation. Mr.. Green said that
he had been in the coal business for 90
years and conditions had never been so
hard ito judge as at present, that pos
sibly not till after the first of May
would the dealers have any idea of what
prices will be on what contracts they
can fill. He also said that a committee
is now engaged in reclassifyins sizes
OF coal so that there will be two sizes
instead Of four. IS usual. This was
brought about because Of the large
nyMher Of steamers burning oil which
leaves a surplus Of the small sizes and
each dealer has to take a proportion Of
these sizes in ORDER to get the coal he
really wants. Watervilie, Mr. Green
said. has been much more fortunate
than many places as there has been
some coal Of one size or another on
hand all the time.
A committee to assist in the arrange
ments for the visit Of General Pershins
was appointed consisting Of j. Howard
Wslch. DR.. A. Jolly and DR.. r. T. Hin.

these gentlemen carried on jewelry
business where Hartman is now located
and they are known to nearly everyone
in the city and vicinity for miles
around. Both of the gentlemen receiv-
ed many fluctuations from their friends
on the happy event of rounding out so
many years and best wishes for many
more birthday anniversaries
