A NEWSPAPER DKVOXSB TC LOCAL AND GENERAL KSW8 AND THE INTERESTS OF CEDAR* VILLE AND VICINITY. FORTY-EIGHTH YEAR NO. 14, CEDARVILLE. OH W FR ID A Y . MARCH 20, 1925 PR ICE /$1.50 A YEAR FASTTIME FORSTATE BYLAW Shall the legislature force Eastern time on the entire state? Are you favorable to Eastern time the year round? I f go write to your Representative from this county or to your State Senator from this district. There is now a bill before the legis lature that if passed will make East ern or fast time the legal time instead o f Central Standard time as we now have it. The Interstate Commerce Commis sion-has placed the Eastern half of the state on Eastern time. The section o f the state East o f the T. & 6 . C. railroad from Toledo South. The only argument infavor o f the fast time proposed is that the state would have uniform time. When that is said all has been said in favor of a change. A number o f cities have adopted the fast time notable Cincinnati, Day- ton and Springfield. This applies to the summer months only. There are 'many disadvantages to the fast time fo r rural sections dur ing the winter. It matters not what ...time -w e . have • legalized the farmer must be guided largely b y the sun. The farmer has elways opposed the fast tins during the summer in that Ms help Was forced to quit at an hour too early to be profitable. The extra hour was worth nothing in the morn ing. As fo r the farmer housewife the fast time in winter means arising one hour earlier if there is children tc prepare for school. It is claimed now by some farmers that children in the . Eastern part o f the state must leave home before daylight is well on tc get the busses fo r school. It has been reported that in the city o f Colum but this winter where the pew time is- in force that on some o f the short est days which were cloudy that the children, went- to- school While the street lights were still burning. The lights were required on street cars and for,automobiles, Some might argue that school can by this it means that the noon horn4at school would not come with the noon meal at home and the housewife wquld be forced to have two meals. This has been tried out and not found satisfac tory in a number o f .places in the state. The proposed bill is being urged' by the Cincinnati Chamber o f Com merce and is yet to be voted upon. The Farm Bureau and Grange is opposing this bill.;A secret campaign is being waged fo r the fast time by a few civic and women's clubs. The plan is to put the bill through without debate or discussion to stir up tho people. ' I f you fayor the fast time write to your Representative and Senator and say’so. NEW NEIL HOUSE TO BE READY FOR STATE FAIR Ohio is .to have one o f the most beautiful hotel buildings that can be found anywhere in the entire country. One could hardly think o f Columbus in years past without associating somp event or memory with the “ Neil House." The new building is now ready fo r -the roof and will be about ten stories n height. The design is most attrac- ive and the great building will have iwo facings,, one towards High street md the State Capitol and the other to he West where the Civic Center is •anned across the river. The building ..ill have more than 600 rooms with the entire lower flower devoted to retail stores and small shops. An ar cade will run through the building to the West from High Btreet. The business rooms are being com pleted now and will be ready fo r oc cupancy before the hotel proper is opened- reedy for the State Fair. Some months ago the cqmpany was the storm center in court proceedings due to mismanagement o f the head Now that every thing has been ar ranged in the way o f finances, the ’.'jilding is nearing completion with three shifts o f men -working on it. From a financial standpoint the in- estment promises to be one o f the best in the state. The rentals will bo 10 per cent more per square||foot than myother structure in Columbus.
