On and after January next it will begin at 12 o'clock midnight. The change has been adopted by the United States, Great Britain, France, Germany, .Spain and Italy, and old seatlogs have set up a howl. A landlubber could in a way appreciate the objections made by farmers, railroad employes and a few others against the adoption of daylight saving during the sum mer months. This change now seems to be well established in the large cities and will continue as long as golf and unprofessional baseball remain popular pastimes but a landlubber cannot be expected to understand the objections of seamen to the new order. An ancient nAiriner is quoted 4:s saying that it "will mess things up. In fogs and storms there would bo great likelihood of accidents." However, one can understand the objection that "now every mariner will have to spend at least $6 for new books, r.ild not only that, but he will have to 'learn how to use 'em." Thus far the only response of the authorities to the sea men's protest is, "There is the new Nautical Almanac; use it." All reforms encounter opposition; but, fortunately, ; t.-ni. n-i man is an adaptable animal. BY JUNIUS A itmiriin Vllh cyos like a dove Wood xclulmlnff "Oh Heaven's Above!

A group of NeodeHha men or ganized to handle the new Indus try on a lartre ncalc. The com pany leased hundreds of acres of land in this vicinity and drilling operal Ions were started. WelM were drilled with great success. and. the men asserted they en countered little' of the uncertain ty met in drilling for sum! gas. In a.lditlon, they said, there are as surances the wells drilled will have a remarkable longevity. The In dustrial promise of lime gas Is a large factor. The source of nhale gas re mains unsolved, although the t. H. bureau of mines has advanced the theory thai I he gus, which is produced In encountering the shale and salt water below the Oswego lime, is absorbed In the water and carried many thousands of miles. The large amount of gas ubsorbed by the water is given as the reason for the fact that the gus does not decrease when being drawn upon. The bureau believes that until many thousands of wells have been drilled, the decrease of the shalo gas supply will not be appreciable. Approximately 5ui wells nr producing shale gas, some of them through plugs, some outside of the , tubing, and others through up- pa rut us rigged up for farm use. , Many of them have produced con- stmtilv for upward nf 30 years. 1 Hhale rai comes from the tuu- Ino- o r.yf.r n.nvllrf. nf ..mloi. tin, I ' gas.

Kccncy A Kent A Traffic Nuisance Without advocating an addition to our already too vol uminous statute hooks, one can express his abhorrence of, mid disgust with, those poor impatient nutoists who im mediately when traffic is held up cause a deafening din with their electric horns. ' There is nothing more futile than trying to untangle a traffic jam by the honk of a horn. In fact the confusion thus arising can not hut increase the congestion and cause further unnecessary delay to the "honkers" themselves. If some motorists enjoy displaying in this way their bad tempos and childish lack of patience there are in numerable pedestrians, brother motorists, residents and workers who are annoyed almost beyond endurance by this wholly unnecessary addition to the noises of the street. The necessary and unavoidable traffic noises call for no assistance from the unthinking. Traffic policemen and crossing watchmen are not ac customed to deliberately block traffic and increase the con gestion. The driver of the stalled automobile is not going to be calmed into a mechanical and trouble-finding turn of mind by a bedlam of horns. And the driver of the car ahead is just as anxious to lie on the move as the terma- gate fellow at the end of the line of traffic. . The fellow who blows his horn in a traffic tie-up is the Fame undesirable citizen who forces his way to the head of the line at the ticket office, who crowds his way into the "I Hill Ki ll n fliMIc of nl.I wnml lliul I iiimli nut of iny own lu-int un.l linvn wooil Iff t for anoHiiT."
