Show BIB WHISTLE TO GIVE OGDEN ! CORRECT TIME AT 10 O'CLOCK, i AFTER TIME CHANGES SUNDAY i Time changes at 2 o'clock, Sunday, when clocks will be stopped one hour. In discussing this feature of changing chang-ing time with a prominent jeweler In this city, the Standard is under the impression a few suggestions would be In order. It was an easy matter to move tho hands of the clock ahead one hour. However, the moving back of hands on a striking. clock will result in a disarrangement dis-arrangement of the striking mechanism mechan-ism and in most cases actually break the clock. After considering the best way to avoid taking your clock to the Jeweler for repairs, the following plan has been agreed upon and the Southern South-ern Pacific shops will act according to the plan outlined, as follows: Stop all striking clocks at 10 o'clock, Saturday night. This can bo done by tipping the clock forward until the pendulum I strikes a portion of the movement and ' ceases to swing, then bring the clock1 gently to its original position and the1 pendulum will be stationary. On Sunday morning, at one minute to 10 o'clock, the big whistle at the Southern Pacific shops will blow a long blast and will repeat the blast at I exactly 10 o'clock. You can start your clock again by tipping one end up about three Inches and letting it down again quickly. The jewelers aro in business to repair re-pair clocks, but they realize that so many clocks might be put out of commission com-mission by careless handling that it would be impossible to care for them all. 'In conclusion Stop all striking clocks when thoy strike 10 on Saturday Satur-day night. Start them again on Sunday Sun-day morning, when the S. P. whistle blows at 10. j |
