 SIGN FOR DAYLIGHT SAVING

whether or not Norwich will run on daylight saving time will depend on the action taken at the open meeting to be held this (Thursday) evening at the town hall under the auspices of the Norwich Chamber of Commerce. AS the state legislature has forbidden an7' municipal ity in the state to adopt ~ daylight saving plan, If the people desire the day light time 1t will have to be secured by common consent
 The manufacturers and merchants and majority of the general public want the daylight saving time, it is claimed, rather than standard time. Inasmuch as the railroads running through Norwich will move their train schedules to conform with the. daylight plan in New York and Massachusetts, it is thought advisable to move the clocks in Norwich ahead one hour.
 Many of the manufacturers and mer- chants of the city have signed petition requesting daylight saving by common consent of the people. The petition is as follows;
 "Whereas the city of New York. the states of Massachusetts and Rhode Isl- and and the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad will go on daylight saving time on April 24th and our com muting and transient population, our mails, our newspapers. schools and banks will therefore be seriously fnconvenienced unless they conform to this schedule, 1t Ia hereby moved and seconded and voted that we, the undersigned, do pledge our selves to move our clocks ahead one hour at 12 midnight, April 24, 1921, until midnight of the last Sunday-Sept. 18th of September, 1921. for ourselves and our respective businesses, and we fur Al. ANa churches to advance their clocks to cor respond"
