Get ready to “spring forward” on March 8, 2020 for Daylight Saving Time. We will set our clocks forward 1 hour. Daylight Saving Time was really born from the Energy Policy Act of 2005. It was thought that the move of the clock would save energy as Americans would use less electricity in the daylight hours of the evening. Enjoy more daylight!
65 YEARS AGO
Pies Tedford: Parking meters were installed about 1954. The intent of installing them was to prevent people from parking all day and taking up customer parking spaces. Prior to the days of Walmart and other large stores, retail was a strong activity in small town USA. The price to pay the meter was one cent for twelve minutes, a nickel for one hour, and a dime for two hours. Mr. Tedford would walk the streets and place tickets on cars with expired meter. Meters were removed several years ago.
