Ben Franklin was the first to propose to save the use of candles by getting up earlier in the morning to make use of sunlight, but the US did not implement Daylight Saving Time until WWI. It was to help conserve energy resources for the war. The schedule for DST has changed many times in the US. The last change was made in 2007.
