Ralph D.. Richman, West Jersey
and Seashore Agent at the Wildwood
avenue station, received a few days
ago, a letter from James S. Murphy,
of Atlantic City, district passenger
agent, relative to changes Of train
schedules. Mr.. Richman mailed this
letter to the commissioners:
Effective April 10Th, all trains
on the West Jersey and Seashore
Railroad will be operated on standard
time, but the time tables will be re-
vised to read n hour earlier, so as
to conform to daylight saving time,
same arrangement as our company
put into effect last year."
The Mayor moved that this letter be
received, filed and action taken on it
at once. Accordingly a motion was
passed to make daylight saving time
Zone hour faster than standard time)
effective in wildwood beginning Sun
day, April 10Th. This action will be
confirmed by formal resolution to be
prepared next week, to be followed
by the issuance of a proclamation by
the Mayor relative thereto.
The Commissioners having decided
to hold the sale Of property acquired
by foreclosure proceedings, because of
non-payment of taxes, on Monday,
May %, 1928, a motion was passed au-
thorizing the publication of this sale
for five insertions in the three weekly
newspapers circulating on Five Mile
Beach and specifying further that the
authority for arranging the details
and terms of said sale be delegated to
the Commissioner of Revenue and
Finance, the City Treasurer and the
City Tax Collector.
The Mayor instructed the city So
licitor to prepare for publication a
proclamation designating Saturday,
May 26th, as Poppy Day." and re-
spectfully requesting that all mer-
chants and citizens cooperate in the
matter as per request of the auxiliary
of Post 1874, American Legion.

City Commissioner Pass on Daylight
Saving, Commencing Sunday,
April %, 1923
All Bids Were Rejected For The Improving of Ball
Park and Street Ends

For the third time in the month of
met last Tuesday afternoon, the 18th,
in regular weekly session, which had
in store some surprises for the limi-
ted number of listeners present. One
of these unexpected happenings vas
the rejection of all bids on the i'm
provements planned for the baseball
park on the Westside and the rejec-
ton also of all bids on the grading
and crawling of certain street ends
and for the construction of sanitary
sewers in and along certain designat-
ed streets. Another surprise was
sprung when a resolution went
through without a breath of opposi-
ton, establishing daylight-saving time
for this municipality, beginning Sun
day, April 10Th. The question may
have popped up, a few instances, why
this radical departure from long es-
tablished standards, was not begun
earlier in the month-say on April l
"a day possibly far more a%ppropri-
ate for the starting point of such a
scheme, than the tail end of the
month. Last year nearly every n
thought this turning ahead of time
pieces and the resultant confusion
had seer their finish; but from pres
ent appearances, the revival is certain
in some sections of the country.
Long years ago, in ancient Roman
days, the year was divided into ten
months only. Then April was the
second month of the calendar and
March was thefirst. According to the
Encyclopedia Britannica, the deriva-
ton of the name of our fourth month
is uncertain. "The traditional ety.
mology from the Latin word aperie,
meaning to open,' in allusion to its
being the season when trees and
flowers begin to bud and blossom is
supported by comparison with a word
of similar import found in the Greek
language. And in the attainment of
these desirable ends, the processes of
nature are greatly facilitated by ire
quent and abundant showers, because
of which this month has been made
additionally famous.
At this weeks meeting all of the
lights were burning in the COM
m%issioners' rooms at city hall, and
when you say that you are saying
something, for these big luminar1es
have a capacity of 100 watts each per
hour. When all four of these high
power lamps are switched on, the Ell
fulgence of their beams flood the
chamber with a brilliancy almost daz-
zling in it's effects. The city electrl-
clan saws these acorn-shaped bowls,
surmounted by circular glass shields
or reflector shades, are known as the
and four of these high Aces,
suspended by heavy chains of lacquer
ed brass, materially add to the inter-
ior adornment of the legislative hall
things of beauty and utility.
The commissioner of revenue and
finance must have felt elated this
week as he listened to his report
when read by the city clerk, the hg-
ures going over the four thousand
dollar mark:
Amount received in taxes, $1,451.OS

St. Joseph. Mich. - William 2. Fos-

charges Of criminal syndicalism jury
three weeks ago disagreed, and Char
les E. Ruthenberg of Cleveland, now on
trial under similar charge were
linked directly with the leading spir-
its in the communist convention of

ness, "K-97" Of the department of JUS
tice today. 4
"K-97n, whose real name is Fran
els Morrow, attended the convention
as delegate.
He told the jury trying Ruthenberg
today that on August 20, when two fed
eral men were discovered shopping
about the lonely sand hills where the
convention was held, Foster departed
hurriedly for Chicago and that later
Alfred Wagenknecht of Cleveland, an
nounced to the convention that Fos-
ter would send back young Commun-
ist league members to take up out
post duty and warn the delegates If
raiders appeared"
The same night, Morrow said,
Charles Erickson and Eugene Breh-
told of Chicago arrived and were post

Fate Of Democracy
in WOmen's Hands

Milwaukee, Wis, = Democracy is in
state of test; and whether this test
be success or failure, depends<large-
lN upon the League of Women Voters,
Mrs. w. 2. Stuart, Neenah, president
Of the Wisconsin league said in her
address at the opening session of the
third annual convention of that body
here today.
ut is the duty of the league to
arouse the woman voter" she con-
tinued. at is the duty of the league to
urge her to Ego to the polls and cast
her vote for when only ohe-fourth of
our voters use the privilege, how can
we say that we have government for
the people and by the people"
The progress made by the league in
the three years of it's existence in the
removal of legal discrimination against
women was shown by Mrs. Stuart.
Mrs. Ben Hooper, Oshkosh, who
spoke on world peace, made plea for
putting as much energy in the cause Of
peace as is put in the cause of war,
The average woman in the average
state does not know how to mark a
ballot correctly, has never seen q COM
mitteeman, and does not know con-
gressional ratio from hawk or hand
saw - hence a good reason for the
formation of citizenship schools, ac-
cording to Mrs. John Paul Goode, Chi
cago, who spoke on the near-end Of
pilitics.

happiness. She was AWARDED a share
OF the estate in settlement and the
custody and care of the one child Of
the union, lr.na, who was nine years
old then. At the time of the granting
Of the divorce the judgment provided

decree had become effective was mar
ried to Mr.. Hoff, and the father of
