Nose for Business.

Olivia-Making little extra spending
money during vacation is perhaps the
ambition of most boys, but this town
has mere youngster who seems to
have a rare nose for business. With
several hundred army men camped in
town one day recently the boy sensed
the idea that men like candy as well
as boys. The new business was capt.
allied with 10 cents. Using his bicycle
for quick transportation to and from a
local grocery store, he bought candy
bars at three for 10 cents and sold them
ct cents each in the army camp.
Dozens of trips, dozens of nickles.

CHANGE OF TIME;
 A CONTAMINATION

To the Editor, Daily Alaska Elm pire There is to be voted on at the city election the question of changing time by setting our clocks forward one hour This is not so-called daylight saving time but is to be PERMANENT. Let US see what this means. It means that all business and office personnel will be expected to be on duty one hour earlier than in the past. It also means that school will open one hour earlier than in the past and mothers who have children going to school would have to arise one hour earlier than at present in order to have their children ready for school In mid winter this means that the mothers would have to arise in the early hours of morning when rest seems sweetest and arouse the youngsters so that they can get up, have breakfast, and be ready for school more than one hour before sun rise. That is, they would have to go to school in the dark Pupils on Glacier Highway would have to be started on their way to school at least one and half hours before sunrise.
 My strongest objection to the change, however, is that it repre- sents the narrow and selfish view point of a group who look to their own selfish convenience without due regard for the rights of others. I know that those advocating the change will deny this, but the fact that it is SUBCONSCIOUS on their part makes it none the less true. If business and professional workers want to begin and quit work one hour earlier they can well do so. All that is necessary is to agree among themselves to that effect. This would in no way disturb those who are well adjust ed and desire no change. My ob- servation is that at least 90 percent of the people magnify their own rights and tend to minimize the rights of others. It is this same tendency that has given rise to pressure groups in our government, and even is a threat to democ- racy. The persons favoring the change in time are local repre- sentation of a group that has al- ways been powerful all over the country. Recent years other groups have also arisen. The tendency is always to disregard the rights of the great unorganized majority. Here is a chance to rebuke one group by a decisive vote against a change in time
 AS to time, I consider Juneau rather fortunate in that it is so close to the 18th meridian whose time we now use. In fact the dis tance in time is only about two and one-half minutes. Said meri- dian passes just west of Point Re- treat and south through the east ern edge of Chichagof and Bar anof Islands.
 The fact is that it is noon when the sun crosses the meridian. To caIl if II o,clock d0ac pnt alter the fact and only takes us away from reality, thing. that is too often done in this artificial age.
 I defy anyone to cite single town in the States that is so close to standard time meridian as Juneau is, that does not use that time. Ketchikan is much further east than Juneau, hence sun time
