SUMMER SCHEDULE
TO Be DISCUSSED.
Proposition to Save a Little Daylight
for business People viii be Con-
sidered at Commercial
Club.
MIR. JOY HAS PLAT
Beginning Halt Hour Earlier in the
Morning Keeping Same Lunch
Hour and Closing Half Hour
Earlier in Afternoon.

The plan for giving Keokuk bust
ness people half hour more of day
light in the coming summer months
will be presented to the Commercial
| club at it's meeting tonight. The plan
was considered favorably by a com
mittee from the Unity club, consist
ing Of Mr.. JOY, Mr.. Renaud and Nj.
! Mcnamara. The idea as expressed
by Mr.. Joy vas not to disarrange the
present hours of business, or to in
convenience anyone. To accomplish
this it was suggested opening bust
mess a half hour earlier, keeping the
same lunch hour, and closing hall
hour earlier.
| For instance, Offices that open now
! at s O'Clock would begin their bust,
ness day at 1880 O'Clock, have the
same lunch hour and close at 4:30 III
the afternoon instead OF at five as
under the winter hours.
The following letter from Mr.. JOY
to Mr.. Renaud explains very thor
oughly the plan suggested by ms
committee and is given here:
| NY dear Mr.. Renaud:
l regret that l will be out of
the city next Tuesday evening SO
cannot meet with the directors of
the Commercial club to consider
with them a change in the time
of opening and closing.
| It does not seem practical to
| me that we should try to follow
the plan of the preceding two
years as it will throw US out OF
gear with the rest of the world,
but in our own business we could,
without inconvenience, begin our
day half hour earlier, keep the
noon hour as at present from
1900 to 100, and close a half
hour earlier in the evening. This
| would not require the change or
j clocks and, if other members OF
employees families kept to the
+! present working hours, 1t would
not disarrange meal times. On
extremely hot days the half hour
in the morning is a much more
favorable time for work than
half hour in the late afternoon.
so that, from the standpoint of
work accomplished, we feel that
it would be an advantage. On
the other hand, the half hour
more of daylight after closing IN
the afternoon has it's advantages
to the employe.
Should this plan be adopted
quite generally, l think no one
would be inconvenienced and it
would be to the advantage OF
both employer and employe.
Yours truly,
| c. R. JOY.
Through misunderstanding yes
jterday, Mr.. Joy was misquoted in The
Gate City on this daylight PROPOSE,
! ton. It is due Mr.. Joy that this
statement is made, and it is hoped
that the publication of the letter
written by him will clear up any
points which may have been clouded
