Sun Sets Bit Later Than On Shortest Days
An old adage about days lengthening proves true as daylight changes. Since Dec 6 the days gained four minutes, with sunset moving from 4:00 pm to 4:10 pm and sunrise shifting from 7:15 am toward Jan 9 when it rises one minute earlier. The shortest day lasted eight hours 51 minutes, now eight hours 54 minutes, with morning gains lagging afternoon gains until mid January.
Wonderful Values Compare Them at Local Outfit

Icebound Kennebec River Delays Coastal Shipping and Vessels
The Kennebec River froze from shore to shore on Friday morning, slowing traffic as ice thinned to about an inch in places. The tanker Georgene sought refuge in Portland with 200000 gallons of range oil and the collier Berwindgen awaited a return voyage. Casco faced docking troubles and spent hours amid drifting ice before reaching Popham. Captains planned to wait for vapor over the coast to clear before continuing toward Portland.

Ice Jam Blocks Bath River Navigation Saturday
The river lay frozen from shore to shore with two to two and a half inch ice Saturday. An ice jam formed in the Reach near the Range lights and around Doubling-point, extending to the J W Cummings Feldspar Co. The ice breaker Kickapoo arrived at 1 55 p m to free the jam and clear the waterway for ebb tides, aiding Bath sea navigation. A shortage of force during low tides and prevailing Northwest winds kept the ice confined to the river rather than moving to sea.
