Phone 247 Parcels containing automobile and bicycle tires, handbags, machinery parts and suit cases rwill not be ac cepted at the postoffice in the future with an insurance guarantee or for safe delivery unless there are at tached two tags containing the names of the sender and the consignee on each tag. was the announcement made by Postmaster August Hucke stein yesterday. He made the an nouncement following receipt of a bulletin from the postoffice depart ment.' Where practicable the department suggests that a tag be plaol inside hthe package with the name t,t the sender and the address written in legible writing; also the. name and address of the person to whom the package Is sent. After the pakag is wrapped another tag similar to the one on the Inside must b ap pended oh the exterior of the pack age. According to the bulletin re ceived by the local postmaster, when the recommendations of the depart ment have been observed the Insur ance for loss and for safe delivery will be extended to patrons. ' The postal authorities have made this ruling following many rer1s and complaints received by them or articles lost while in transit because the tags haVe been torn oft in hand ling. Frequently machinery parts are sent through the mails vithou being wrapped, having the address only on a small tag. Articles mailed In this manner, according to th bul letin, the postmasters are not ol': ;M to accept. They may be aecepfri when the sender waives the right for a claim against loss. recnnical Volumes Are Received at Library The American Library association, war library service, has sent to the Oregon state library 1000 technical volumes as the second Installment of 6000 technical books to be received by this state from the war camp li braries that were maintained during the war. The books will be distributed to libraries throughout Oregon. The distribution will be on a basis of service, the books going to those li braries that are most effective In their general work and that did the most effective work during the war. The books deal largely with engineer ing subjects. Some on technical edu cational subjects have been sent to Oregon Normal school at Monmouth. The other volumes are being distrib uted among the libraries at Albany. Ashland. Bandon. Hood River. La Grande, Salem, The Dalies. Bend. Pendleton and Ontario. Model Libraries Will Enlighten Oregonians A new departure In library work, and one that has had its inception in Oregon Is the sending of model li braries Into rural communities that do not have library advantages. The model libraries will be maintained for a short time at each place as an educational method to teach the value and use of libraries. ine idea .was tried out at the Gladstone Chautauqua where for two in oar i Tillage Horary was maintained In charge of a trained li brarian. Aa a result. Miss Cornelia Marvin, state librarian, has received number of. reqasata for traveling U- Seasonable weather. S S Good old summer time. W The farmers of the Salem section must be well supplied with help this vear. -m -u - Outside of flax pullers, no farm ers have asked City Recorder Race for help this whole season. -a 'Franklin D'OUcr. national com mander of the American legion, who will be in faleni Monday, will find a loyal bunch In this city and section. Marion and Polk counties will never have to feel ashamed of their record In the great war. S The colored men of Salem all cel ebrated Emancipation day on Wed nesday, the 4 th. The Bits for Break fast man tried to find out where they got that date. Two of the best United States histories agree that it was on September 22. 1862. that President Lincoln read his Emanci pation proclamation to his cabinet, and made It public; to take effect on January 1. 1862. He bad talked about it In March. May and July, and he had urged upon, congress the Importance of remunerating the slaveholders. A colored man irr Sa lem told the Bits for Breakfast man yesterday that President Lincoln rote the document bn August 4, and that is the reason why the mem- 2 rbers of that race all over the United States celebrate that date; it is tne Fourth of July for them; or rather a second Fourth of July. If there is a reader of this paragraph who can throw any light on the matter. The Statesman will be glad to print ft. Johnson's Cyclopedia, or which Charles A. Dana was editor, gives the date of the emancipation procla mation aa September 22.
