REASONS WHY FARMERS DISLIKE FAST TIME The following letter to the editor sets out many of the points of dis- satisfaction felt by rural people for Daylight Saving Time: Dear Editor,- the interest of a greater under- standing between the rural and town people re the contentious subject, Day- light Saving Time, I submit some of the reasons country people have against it. Put into force in the First Great War, to save hydro, it has not been needed for that for many years, as most factory workers say that the lights stay on day and night. Some contend that the merchants on Main Street want it, yet, when ten merchants in one town on Main St., were interviewed recently by a Farm Forum Chairman, only one said he liked it. Several Post Office officials have been interviewed and they agreed that as soon as it started, greater sales were made by mail order houses in cities. Do you know that wherever Farm Forums, Township Councils, County Councils, and on and on into the conventions, farmers have brought in resolutions against its adoption for many years. Mothers' in the homes of little fami- lies, and working people have always complained against it,They must rise so early to get their men off to work, then try to get sleepy children up in time for early school. Again the school is called early at noon, in the hottest part of the clay, and then the children are out so early to be watched for hours, as all want to play until sun down. Usually this day calls for four meals, as all are hungry on arrival home from school and again hungry in late evening. The Wingigarn Advance Times, Wednesday, Feb, 11, 1858 Awe D.S,T.? One in the afternoon to get the groceries, and again in the evening to mingle with the folks and he socie able. Do you know why few farmers can get to town churches on fast time In the evenings? Chores cannot be done in the middle of the day and the young folk want to get away in the evenings. With many more reasons, I must be brief, Farm Forum groups are circulating a resolution to be signed by the groups in Huron and Bruce Counties, asking that a start be made to terminate this time, which works hardship on par- ents, families, sick folk, and the farm- ing communities. Several provinces have done it. Several cities have done it. Why not let us understand the mat- ter, and make a start in good time, or why not give people a chance to vote it down? Thanking you, Mrs. Jack-in-the-Box. FORM" Two hockey games Were played Wit: week. On Monday in the i3elgravr Are can, the score was Delgrave 6,Fork,- wieh, 3.

What time will those teen-agers have to give a hand with early chores in the mornings, and there are not many homes where this help is not required in order that the pupils may have the advantage of High School education. This is worse in Septemebr when children leave home before daylight. Do you know what it means to be sick and sleepless in the Hospital, and doze off near morning, only to be wakened to be prepared for the early exchange of nurses? Do you know that summer is a rush time on most O farms, and that after the chores are done in the evening, the folks hurry to town to keep in touch with the loved one in the hospital, only to be told that visiting hours are over at 9 p.m. and on fast time, that means before many can even get there and almost two hours more of daylight? O Do you know that because labour demands an eight hour day, it is al- most prohibitive on farms to hire help? They want to start in good time, so they can be through and away. 0 TheY don't want to chore. Yet, on many farms, the only part of the day for haying and harvesting, is after dinner. Do you know that on over 60 per cent of the farms in Ontario, the farmers aro all over sixty years old, and that it is beyond them to keep all up to par, and that With early and Into hours, and short income, they have encouraged their boys and girls to get jobs in the cities where they would not be at Such a disadvantage, Even the rural ball games are called t. at 7 p.m. Do you know that, If farmers want groceries in towns on Saturdays, 0 it almost always requires two trips •i3n . _ FL r Easier installaaon For Smoother Performance Because- Moto-Master is ENGI- NEERED and built SCIENTIFICALLY -a specific unit for each model and make of car or truck.
