Year by year the line would move until all but a part of a few counties in the extreme northwest and southwest part of the state were on fast time year r< und. Recently, the Eastern half of Indiana went on Eastern Standard Tim-. The Western part of the state was on Central Standard and Central Daylight time, leaving the two sections different for six months. Recent years has found all kinds of confusion with this as the time Jines bounced around so much no - ne was certain which area was - n what time. Towns and schools were split.

Just ivcenth a luling stated that all of Indi ma was tu obsei vi Day light Savings time. Last Sunday was the day it was to be put into operati m and it meant that 13 counties Wotil 1 m v< their clocks ahead an hour at that time to give them another time difference f r a while. Couit action temp< rarily stopped this a< tion and right n- w the state is waiting to >ee what deveb-pes. The c< ntinued time problem is one that seems ridiculous. Just why Indiana can't be on one time or another, but all on the same, is hard to figure. Ft. Wayne and the Eastern side wants to be with Ohio, but the Calumet area and most of the Western side prefers going with Chicago. Consequently the battle goes on. Who is right and who is wrong is not a question at hand, but why can't state lines be used instead of a jagged line up and down the middle of the state jutting here and there as the powers that be desire. Even a couple of selfish little kids could settle a problem better than the supposedly educated adults who handle this situation. The want of teeth in a time law has never come about and unless something changes soon, it looks like a time difference might plague the state 12 months a year instead of just six.

The tree fell across high tension wires onto flower beds at the back end of the Clem DeCoudres residence and it so happened that servicemen from the Northern Indiana Public Service Co. were in town and were on the syene within a few minutes. 1918 Harry Ryan Sells IK limt Service.
