These cells were about 12 feet square, and twelve of us were put iu each. The prison was in a filthy condition. We protested, but they said there was nothing else they could do. We were locked in, and a present was given to us in the shape of a packet of rico, which was dropped Into our cells through a hole in the door. For about a fortnight we wero al- lowed out for only half an hour in the morning and another half an hour in the evening for exercise.

After about a month we were al- lowed to go into tb0 courtyard very nearly the whole of the day, and were only locked up in the colla at night, but the nights were very terrible to us awing- to the great heat, the lack of ventilation, and the plague of ver- min. The place fairly swarmed with insects. Fortunately it was summer time and the. vermin did not act as typhus carriers, as I understand they do in winter. The Dolshevists did not `treat us with any personal cruelty, but they made us live under the most .trying , and revolting conditions. The Cos- sack warders, who had charge of Us and who hated the.

The advocates for daylight saving will point out that in England the economy in coal consumption ef- fected by daylight saving during the summer months amounted to $2,600,- 000, whereas the dairy farmers of the middle west protest that the morning dews and the natural mincing time for cows cannot be regulated by clock, while in the North-West, where the summer sun shines eighteen or twen- ty hours a day the mother of seven children wishes to goodness that the darkness and the hour for bed time came twice as soon and lasted twice. as long—what she wants is a dark- ness -saving law. The demand for daylight saving, bowever, is most insistent in Eastern Into another, thus introducing a time at variance with the theoretical time of that zone. The contention of the railways is that time should be changed only at the points at the ter- mini of train dispatching districts when train crews are relieved, They claim it is hazardous to require train crews to change from one standard operating time to another during a trick of duty, and impracticable to have train dispatchers operate trains under two standards of time. Now It is noticeable that the de- mand fez -adoption of daylight saving time by the larger towns and cities is almost exclusively confined to Eastern Canada, New England States and the City of New York. On examination, this appears to be Inc to the fact that Eastern Standard time which theore- tically extends only between the 70th and 90 merldiane, has been carried in actual practice a very considerable distance east of the 76th degree. Ac- cording to this meridian places all of the Province of Quebec, and all of New England, New York City and part of New York State in the At1an- e Qe to dinner fa aS u g. pki;tulvlity of Andvdng' my Ifnietidlla tions, I%arie answered, No, 1 t ebre1 l g linin it 2] 0 lights id t spend, a� Who f' white R? ga m}1dw elee much Iie.o b long, Ida rg n tt big I tel �beit lad our cab � ho pdY roue l wn o vn aam�tt 0vadently shared by J3eutnpeen, Ho branch lines radiate out of one zone SHADED AREA SHOWS PRESENT EXTENT OF EASTERN TIME MERIDIANS SHOW CORRECT SCIENTIFIC DIVISIONS OF 5TANOARD TIME roast 1108 NW YORK • () PN"tapstFBl2.a k` gg ° g dee �th s slop° w i fro rho questions i listened in tondo to Watarlep Station, Theme z<misevt and my amazement was Canada and the Eastern States 'and for every insistent demand there 1s usually a real reason. The reason ap- parintiy ie that the so-called standard time in force in the area In question varies considerably from the mean sun time upon: which the actual length and buteneity of daylight le based. Standard time is a convenient artifice established In order to secure uniform time for neighboring communities or places, The sun is travelling from East to West and the noon hour origins ally travelled with it, but it was found advisable to fix definito areas in Which the noon hour and other hours should remain the same for the oonvenienee of the operation of railroads and tele- grapbe and the transaction of business Wherein contracts involved definite time limits.
