John 8:31, 32. .. .. Men talk, of course, but you'll notice it is called tlie mother tongue arid not tlio father tongue. The "naval exports" are already showing peevishness be cause they are not to be permitted to ruin the next disarma ment conference. Americans are. accused by a speaker of "saving at the spigot and wasting at the bunghole." But the simile has sur ;; vived the' use of both. Short skirts and rolled hose in cold weather are healthful, a medicaL authority claims. However, whether they are or aren't is all the same. -51.?.- vao ' . 'wv. a v c m j a ms mil . ? " Bring the Ptomaino poisoning is a myth, avers a Harvard professor. This is finesse in diagnosis those who have died of it will be unablo to appreciate. GROWTH OF RURAL DELIVERY It is 34 years since rural free delivery was introduced. Great caution was exhibited in trying out the idea. It had been advocated for a number of years, but aroused interest slowly on the part of those destined to benefit most by it. Evidently congress did not grasp its possibilities, for there was reluctance to appropriate the funds to give it a trial. At first but thrco routes were established as an experiment. The spread of the idea was not speedy, but when ' it finally was realized that it possessed virtue, demands came in great volume for theJcstablishment of additional routes. At the close of the last fiscal year there were 4'1,2(() rural routes in operation covering 1,205,714 miles and nearly 30, 000,000 individuals wore served daily by rural carriers. The initial appropriation of $10,000 had grown to an annual ex penditure of ?89,2.r),000 to keep, the service functioning. Of course, the adoption of the plan resulted in a frightful slaughter of fourth-class postmasterships and no small part of the earlier opposition to the extension of the system came from theso officers. Their objection could be understood easily. Discontinuance of the postof I'ices meant financial loss to them. Yet the benefits to the dwellers on farms accruing from; daily receipt of mail without having to go after it, sometimes far, is immeasurable. The rural free delivery is one of a trio of. facilities removing isolation from the farm, It does not lake a subordinate position to the other two the telephone and the automobile. It is significant, too, that all three of these means of facili tating communication between farm and town were fairly co Incident in arrival. All three may be credited with accelerat ing the march of progress. If any one excels the other in value it is the rural free delivery. To Our Store Wednesday ;A' Real Treat Is In Store For Them!
