SUMMER TIME PERIOD
ENDING NEXT SUNDAY The period of summer time, the longest New Zealand has yet enjoyed, is now drawing to a close, and at 2 a.m. next Sunday it will be necessary to put back all clocks 30 minutes. The Summer Time Amendment Act, passed last December, provided an additional six weeks this season, and in future years the gain will be slightly more than that, owing to the earlier commencement of the period. Instead of the clocks being advanced half an hour on the second Sunday in October, they will in future be-advanced ou the last Sunday in September.-They will-re-main advanced until the last Sunday in April, instead of being put back on the third Sunday in March, as was the case last year.
