Still the Time Question

Unquestonably the voice OF the
residents of the city is against the
continuance of daylight time in this
city. The few weeks that we have
had, when all the neighborinG towns
and cities are on standard time. IS
quite sufficient, and we predict that
if the matter went to the people. the
majority in favor of returning to the
regular time would be large indeed.
There has been filed with the city
clerk a petition signed by $40 OF the
voters of the city of Gardiner. pray
ing the following:
ITO the Honorable City Council OF
the City of Gardiner: We, the UNI
dersigned voters residing in the cit
Of Gardiner, qualified to vote at the
city elections, hereby petition youl
honorable body to pass the follow
ing ordinance: Standard time shall
be the time on which the business
of the city of Gardiner shall be con-
Quoted until the adoption of a state
or national daylight saving law"
The city clerk is now at work
verifying the reliability of the sig
natures in order to ascertain If the
petition contains the names of 2o0
bona fide voters. When this Is done
the city council can do one of two
things-it can either pass the ordi-
nance or pass the buck to the
people at an expense of approx
matcly $500.
Section % of the charter covers
SITUATION like this with the follow
ing: THE city council SHALL (a)
pass the said ordinance without al
teration, within twenty days after
the city clerk has ATTACHED his Ger
tifcatc of suficiency 70 such petit

piration of the twenty days aforc-
said appoint a special election, I'M
less an election is fixed for q date
within 90 days after the city clerk
has attached the aforesaid certificate
of sufficiency, and at such special or
regular election submit such ordi-
nance without alteration to the

-Four years ago we, members Of

individually seek our happiness.
We are about to take up our du-
ties i'll the world. For this we have
received the training given by the
college to its sons. We all possess
an understanding of the high ideals
and spirit Of Bowdoin.
"A mans inner life is at least as
important to his happiness and to
his ultimate value to mankind as his
outer life. Here we have undergone

in this we have little to fear as we
survey the valuable contributions of
graduates of the college to Life,
