Daylight Saving .
Time! Watch Out!
Beginning at 2 A. M. tomorrow
morning. Daylight Saving Time
will go into effect in the city of
Sorwalk.
Watch out!
There will be confusion be-
:ause the State law keeps the
:locks on public buildings on
Standard time.
The oBlcinl work will begin in
the city next week on Standard
Time but the working time will
be pushed ahead one hour.
The schools will do likewise.
Most of the churches will hold
services on Daylight Saving Time.
One church advertises Standard
Time but begins its services one
hour earlier.
Therefore time must be read
carefully.
“'hether it is better to push
the house clocks ahead onto Day-
light Saving Time or keep them
on Standard time each person
will have to decide for himself
but since most of Norwalk‘s af-
fairs will be on Daylight Saving
the best way seems to be to push
the clocks ahead.
In regard to Daylight Saving it
is interesting to know that the
Supreme Court of Connecticut
which decided that the State law
regarding Standard Time was
:onstitutional, will observe Day-
light Saving itself by beginning
court one hour earlier. In other
words the High Court declares
the law is all right but the Legis-
lators all wrong.

Injunction Against
City Granted Davis
A temporary injunction was
granted in the Superior Court in
Bridgeport yesterday. by Judge Wil-
liam Maltbie. restraining the City of
Norwalk from interfering with the
opening of the doors leading from
\V’ashington street to the tailor shop
in the basement of the clothing
store conducted by Joseph Davis.
It is alleged in the writ. that the
city by placing a. policeman upon
the door to keep it. from opening
did irreparable damage, inasmuch
as the tailor shop was not properly
ventilated.
Papers were served on City Clerk
Irving Robertson yesterday after-
noon. The case will come up in the
Superior court for a. hearing on the
first Tuesday in May. Damages of
$1.000 are asked. The plaintiff is
represented by Attorney Leo Davis.

The fourth annual spring con-
cert by the Norwalk 11. E. Church
orchestra was held last night at the

ers who were delighted with the

The orchestra which is directed

ever. ' ‘
