7..11E DAYLIGHT SAVING BILL.

ITO THE EDITOR OP THE "SPECTATOR"]

Sin,—Kindly allow me to thank Mr. Willett for drawing attention in last week's Spectator to one of the strongest arguments, if any be needed, against his so-called Daylight Saving Bill. If sundry Government clerks, like printers, actors, night watchmen, and many others, can arrange to be more or less awake or asleep at other than the usual hours without the help of an Act of Parliament, other people can do so if they choose. I agree with Mr. Willett that "the best of all ways to lengthen our days is to steal a few hours from the night," but he might be content to let each of us choose what hours he will steaL—I am, Sir, &c., ZETETES.
