Set Your Clocks Ahead Sunday. Sunday morning at 2 o’clock the daylight savings law goes into effect. At that time, or rather at 10 o’clock Saturday night, which may be more convenent, all clocks and watches should be turned one hour ahead to so remain until 2 o’clock a. m., October 31. The daylight savings act was passed by congress and it is estimated that under it thousands of tons of coal used in light and power plants will be saved and that workers will be given an hour more in the afternoons for re creation or work in the gardens. The act makes the new time the standard time for the period mentioned. In O’Neill the county offices will open and close on the new time and the mer chants generally will observe it. The banks will open at 9 a. m. new time and close at 4 p. m., to accommodate their country patrons. The churches will follow‘the new time in their services, with the exception that this Sunday the Presbyterian church will observe old time to avoid confusion. The Rev.

Albion News: “Elsewhere in this paper will be found the Articles of incorporation of a new railroad which proposes to bulid a line from Albion to Atkinson, in Holt county, a distance of approximately 100 miles.
