TO VOTE ON DAYLIGHT SAVING (Continued from page one) couldn't make a living on the farm fey ' working from !six a.m. to siv iun„ he would: give up farming and he thought that every place should have the same time. For his part he did not care whether they had daylight or standard time. Mr. Neil Porter did not see much difference which way it was, as he dealt with farmers in the south of the village that were on daylight saving saving and also with farmers on the north of the village.

Moved by N. Porter, seconded) by Major Gamey -- That the Police Trustees be petitioned to have the roads painted for angle parking -and also to put up no parking signa wherever they were needed. The other question, was of the speed that some motorists travelled through 'Orono, especially at the north and south ends of the town,. This was brought up by Mr. W. E. Armstrong, who said that some motorists motorists travelling through the north end of the town travelled from 50 to 60 miles- an hour and was a great, danger to the lives of the children that rniay be on the road -ait the time. The worst time was on Sunday when so many cars, pass through town and. it was npw the time to put a stop to It before someone wais injured or kilted. kilted. Moved by W. E.
