The United States first observed Daylight Saving Time during the Presidency of Woodrow Wilson, during World War I.
The time measure introduced in 1927 was Daylight Saving Time (DST), also known as Summer Time. It is the practice of setting the clock forward by one hour during the warmer months to extend evening daylight and save energy.
Daylight savings time applies in parts of Australia, but not the entire country. The Northern Territory, Queensland, and Western Australia do not follow daylight savings time. All other parts follow it from the first Sunday in October to the first Sunday in April.

First of all it is Daylight SAVING time, not savings. Florida went on Daylight SAVING Time in 1970.
Benjamin Franklin first suggested Daylight Saving Time in 1784, but modern DST was not proposed until 1895 when an entomologist from New Zealand, George Vernon Hudson, presented a proposal for a two-hour daylight saving shift to the Wellington Philosophical Society. The conception of DST was mainly credited to an English builder, William Willett in 1905, when he presented the idea to advance the clock during the summer months. His proposal was published two years later and introduced to the House of Commons in February 1908. The first Daylight Saving Bill was examined by a select committee but was never made into a law. It wasn't until World War I, in 1916, that DST was adopted and implemented by several countries in Europe who initially rejected the idea.
