Welcome (yawn) Daylight Saving Time

Yes, Daylight Saving Time is once again upon us. But not in Saskatchewan, where, as Mr. Berkeley Bigler of Horizon pointed out, cows have minds of their own. "They do not recognize arbitrary changes in measuring time," he told us. "They follow their own internal clocks."

At one time it was put forth that Daylight Saving Time provides more opportunities for golfers to get out on the greens. "Cows do enjoy greens," said our Prairies correspondent, "but they do not play golf."

Throughout the rest of North America, however, people were resolutely setting their clocks one hour forward as an energy-saving maneuver. All except Bosley Farnsworth of Tight Upper Lip, Newfoundland. Said Mr. Farnsworth, "Why bother setting the clocks ahead? In six months, I'll just have to set them back. Now that's saving energy."
