FOUR REASONS FOR
BUILDING NOW
Minneapolis, which U carrying on
a tacst encouraging "owe toot own
borne" campaign, in cooperation with
the United States Department of
Labor. has outlined four reasons why
an organized effort to promote build
ing is imperative now. The reasons
are:
1. To provide employment for sol
diers and sailors and for the many
workmen released from war work.
2. To improve local business condi
tions in the home furnishing, construc
tion. and real estate lines.
To provide for our community the
ter f home owners to counteract the
b-r of horn owners to counteract the
irresponsible doctrine* of extreme
radicals.
4 To make our city a more at
tractive and more wholesome place to
live in by promoting the idea of a home
for every family
This campaign is to cofer a period
of fw, building seasons, beginning
April 1. 1919. and ending January 1,
1921. It will be promoted by display
advertising in the daily newspapers at
least once a week, billboards also
ieir.g used; the organization or sepa
rate corporations to assist prospective
ooe builders la financing second
mortgages and contracts; school es

ly illustrated in the report on “Negro
Mu-ration in 1316-17.” published by
the Department of Labor and embody
in? the results of investigations.
■•Though negroes may go from a sec
tion in large numbers, as from
j Lowndes County. Ala., for example.*'
! writes one of the investigators, dsa
! cussing the tide of migration, “which
was severely affected by the ball wee
vil and the floods, yet few, if any,
usually leave the neighborhood of a
good school in such a locality.
“About the Calboun Colored School
in Lowndes County there are perhaps
10® negro farmers who. thru the in
strumentality of the school, have been
able to buy and pay for their lands.
Not one of these men has been at
tracted sway by the opportunities in
the North: and other negroes in the
neighborhood declare that they remain
on account of the good school for theii
children.”
WANT “GOD’S TIME”
DES MOINES, la.—Opposition to
continuance of the "daylight saving"
plan has evidenced itself among some
of the farmers of Iowa and from one
section at least a petition will be sent
to congress protesting against it.
Farmers of Marcy township. Boone
county, oppose it and expect to call the
matter to the attention of congress.
They declare it unsatisfactory, as the
farmer works from daylight to dark,
regardless of hour, and the change
confuses their work schedule.
An incident is cited in another eoua
ty where a relative from a city notlc
ed two clocks on the mantel last Sep
tember. one set to “daylight saving"
time and the other to sun time. Asked
the reason for this, the farmer re
plied:
“That one,” pointing to the saa
time clocks, “is God's time. Wo get
up in the mornin, do our farming and
go to bed by that time. The other
is Woodrow Wilson’s time. That's
what we g-v to the train by."
