Time Is Fleeting. (Continued from First Page) wouldn’t be finished with his work so that he could go to Sunday school before fall. Clee Hibschman said time didn’t make any difference to him, that he got up when he was ready, ate when he was hungry and went to bed when he was sleepy. He said there wasn’t any use trying to kid oneself that if one wanted to go to work at ■6 a. m., why couldn’t he, without [changing his clock to read 7 a. m. ? Mr. Hibschman also said that it was unanimously voted at the Church [of God last Sunday, that services 1 would be held on CST. He said other i wise Christian Endeavor would be held in the evening at 5:30 CST, the hour which was chore time. Mr. Hibschman also said he didn’t believe lake folks would like the idea of fast time, as they didn’t get up as early as farmers do even with it named slow time. C. D. Thompson said it didn’t make much difference to him, that he went on sun time anyhow. Bert Whitehead said it was a “Gosh durn idea.” He said he couldn’t see any sense in fooling with the clock, if you wanted to get up at i 4 a. m., why not do so instead of the He said it reI minded him of the story about who i was the greatest man in the world. One fellow said Joshua was because | he commanded the sun to stand still. I The other said that Woodrow W’ilson was, because after war time DST he had turned the sun back an hour. ; Whitehead said he was sure if the closing hour of Syracuse stores was shortened, people would go to trade where stores were open. He said he thought Wednesday and Saturday nights would be all right for open stores, so long as they stayed open as long as there was any trade. When Stephen Freeman was questioned about it, he said he was sure i that advancing the clock an hour , would mean bigger and better eggs. I He said that with the new system of | lighting, so that the 24 hours would ;be evenly divided into 12 light and *l2 dark, in the winter time, hens • got into the habit of laying early. He said by moving the clock up an hour he was sure they’d get busy and have their laying done earlier i every morning. • When Merritt Lung was in town the first of this week, and was asked his opinion, he said he thought ! it was a crazy idea; if people wanted to work two more hours a day, why ! change the clock? One farmer, Calvin Beck, said that he . had moved his clock to fast I time that whatever was the ruling he intended to follow. i Business Men. Roscoe Howard is very much opposed to daylight savings time for ; this town. He said that going to work at 7 now meant going to work j at 6, and a workman could not go to a lake home and expect the residents to be up out of bed at 6. He said ! the majority of lake residents are (from towns south of Fort Wayne where slow time predominates. He said fast time would mean two ' hours work more a day, not a cent more business and a big inconven- ’ ience. | Ross Osborn said that farmers seemed to be against fast time, and | that his store was not going to oper--1 ate on it. That the store would open at 6 CST and close at 6 CST. Warren Colwell said that he believed fast time for Syracuse was wanted by lake residents, and that when the big argument occurred years ago about moving hitch racks out of Syracuse streets, fanners said they wouldn’t come to Syracuse to any more. C. E. Brady, Sam Rasor and John Walton are a few of the house painters who are against fast time. Brady said he lived under it for several years in Gary, and that he doesn’t see that it benefits anyone except the man with nothing to do but run around. He says that fast time here means home an hour later, by the clock, at night, as painters cannot go to work an hour earlier in the morning as no one would be up out of bed at 6 a. m. CST at the lake. He said that the town board hadn’t any right to decide what kind of time should be in force here, that it should have been to the vote of the people. The telephone employes are working according to DST as are the Northern Indiana workers and The State Bank of Syracuse. Porter Mickey at the Grand Hotel said he liked DST because many of his customers came to eat at what to noon DST, that traveling men are all on fast time. Wm. Bushong said that his barber shop would remain on CST to see how long this DST would last—that it had been tried, and failed before. H. A. Buettner said the Variety store is on standard time, waiting to see what other merchants plan to do. He said he had no particular objection to fast time, in fact thought that it was fine, during the war, but that it should be state wide When W. M. Wilt was questioned about his factory’s hours, he said he didn’t think that the town board should have made the decision about the time without consulting them or other business men about it, whether or not it would ba convenient. He said it did not conflict with them, but they are adopting a watchful waiting attitude as to whether to change to DST or not. . Hilary Rachman said their store

The SYRACUSE FOURNAL

would be open from 6 a. m. to 6 p. m. CST. He said that there had been a number of complaints from farmers that they could not get to town before stores closed on DST. He said he had also heard lake residents complain about the change. He said if the farmers wanted it, they’d close their store all day and keep it open all night. Grant Skidgel who happened to hear the conversation said he thought that CST was the Only thing, unless the whole state changed. Fred Self who was in the store at the time said he didn’t think much of DST. That he (who is now a farmer) had to quit work an hour and a half earlier to come to town to get what he needed before closing time. It was also reported to the Journal by someone who didn’t care to be quoted, that it has been said the only reason the town went on fast “time was so the Porters, the editor and wife, could go swimming an hour earlier; so George Xanders could go to a show in Goshen and save 5 cents and so Louis Heerman could get off an hour earlier to play golf. When he was questioned about it. Rev. Jarboe indignantly said his cliurch would remain on real time, that DST time was all foolishness. He also criticised the town board for deciding the question by flipping a coin. W ? hen Ralph Thornburg was questioned, he said he had no personal remark to make about feelings in :he matter at all, but time hid been advanced the hour in the Thornburg Drug store because it was the decision of the tow’n bored that* Syracuse should opera.e on DST and he was going to follow the board’s rdecision. When Beanie Howard was questioned he said he would like to combine both kinds of time —go to work by one and quit by the other. When Frank Woods at the Kale Island bathing beach was questioned he said he had both kinds of time—'and showed his railroad watch with two hands on it to show two kinds of time. Rev. Reidenbach said he was in favor of changing the time —that last Sunday a larger crowd than usual attended church. That half the people were late to Sunday school and half came early to church as time of service was uncertain, so they almost all stayed for church. It has also been reported that some of the country people claim they will transfer their membership from the Lutheran church this summer if it is on fast time; as it would mean milking at 3:30 in the afternoon “real time” to attend evening service in Syracuse. Other country people said that Syracuse merchants are just catering to lake people, after their trade in the summer, but they are glad enough for the farmers trade all winter. F. L. Hoch said that he did not intend to change his clock to fast time. He said 'Since it was decided, there had not been a farmer in his store who said be was in favor of DST. Mr. Hoch said the farmers say they are not going to stop work in the middle of the day to come to town. He said if everyone was on fast time, the government, postoffice, railroad, etc., it would be all right, but as it is Syracuse is the only town in the county on fast time. Vernon Beckman said he was in favor or the plan if it suited the majority of the people. He said farmers would have to stop work to come to Syracuse to reach the stores before they closed at 6 standard time, and he didn’t believe one hour made much- difference. But he said he did think stores should remain open two nights a week. Mothers who have young children who are more easily persuaded to go to bed when it becomes dark, are not in favor of the daylight saving time, as they say it means the children will remain up an hour longer, which cuts short the parents’ evenings of quiet. Mel Rapp said, “What’s the difference whether you call it fast time or slow? You have so much work to do no matter what hour it is.” Pell Clayton said the Wawasee Restaurant would not go on fast time. He said he didn’t believe it would work for the town tn a farm community either. He said many people are already going to Milford to trade. He said they served meals at any time, but the help worked until Bp. m., and if the clock were advanced to 9 p. m. they would be working too long. Ray Foster of the Star store, said he wasn’t going on fast time, that that would mean closing the store at 5 in the afternoon standard time, and this couldn’t be done against farmers and lake people who were on CST. He said that it is “only a dump like Syracuse which would try to do such a thing as change to DST” John Grieger said his grocery store was opened at 7 fast time and closed at 7 fast time, the same as 6 and 6 standard time, the 6a. m. meaning an hour more work than before. He said there was more of a rush towards the closing hour in the evening thah other times in the day, and he thought stores should not be closed. 6 p. m. DST. r. Jennison at The Grill said he thought this DST was the biggest piece of foolishness ever put over. He said he had been opening the Grill at 6, the new time, as he had done before at 6 standard time, but now at 6 o’clock there isn’t even a

sparrow on the streets. He said people are living so fast they have to move up the time, and that it is artificial and unnecessary.' — -0 LAKE NEWS.
