Daylight saving cartoon, 1911

Daylight saving cartoon, 1911

Parliamentarians' favourite subjects appeared in cartoons. T.K. Sidey campaigned long and hard for the introduction of daylight saving in the early 1900s, and his New Zealand Local Time Bill became a hardy annual in the House. His persistence finally paid off in 1927 when the Summer Time Act introduced daylight saving for one year. It became permanent in 1929.
