Where does the phrase “Spring Forward, Fall Back” come from?

We all recognise it now as an ‘aide memoire’ to know whether to move our clocks forward or back in the Spring or Autumn. We all ask when do the clocks go back?

Most people think that because the word ‘fall’ is used, that the phrase originates from the United States of America. This assumption is correct, the phrase does come from the States. The first time that it is recorded in print is in an article by Walter Winchell in an October 1957 edition of the U.S. Pennsylvania newspaper The Derrick.

However, the word ‘fall’ is not an Americanism of the English language. ‘Fall’ was firstly recorded in Tudor, deriving from the phrase 'fall of the leaf', which is first found in print in a manual named Toxophilus, in 1545. This is an archery instruction manual written by Queen Elizabeth the First's archery tutor Roger Ascham. He lists the seasons as:

‘Spring tyme, Somer, faule of the leafe, and winter’.

Take a look at this film ‘Daylight Saving’…it is so funny:
