MORE TROUBLE.
Post Office Carriers Get Longer vaca tons
But Must Work for Them.

Postmaster Greene has Just received
communication from the department
informing him that hereafter clerks in
first and second class post offices are to
have Is days vacation in year, irres-
peettve and exclusive of Sundays and
legal holidays. The notice also con-
tains a request that postmasters In car
rying out these instructions so arrange
their schedules as not to impair the
public service.
Postmaster Greene has received a
copy OF the order and says that 1t pre-
SCENTS something Of an uncertainty In
the vacation arrangements for the
coming year. There are 81 clerks in
the local office, and they have each to
enjoy II days vacation under the new
order. In the past it has been difficult
for them to get away for their annual
vacation without serfously impeiring
the service, for there can only be a
small number away at a time.
Under the old order each man had
but LIS days, but with two additional
days the trouble viii DO augmented
and 1t will be quite q problem to solve
to determine how the men can be away
and yet leave the local postal service
unimpaired. In some years these vaca-
tons have extended into October and
November. During the height Of sum
mar the clerks can be spared without
much trouble, but during the fall
months there is much mora business
and the absence from the office Is
felt.
Under the rules Of the department as
at present constituted there is no APP
preparation for extra clerk hire to take
the places of the men while they are
away on their vacations, although
there IS an appropriation For extra car
riers during vacation time. There is an
appropriation Of $4,000 for extra vaca-
ton clerk hire. but Is only available for
the smaller second class offices, so that
Worcester can claim none Of this
bounty.
Under the new order the situation is
simply this, that the clerks who are in
the office during vacation time win
have to work just so many more hours
to accomplish the business that Of ne-
cessity must be done II the efficiency OF
the service is to be maintained.

Flour, Butter
and Eggs

Do not be de1uded by the deceptive claim
of economy for the cheap baking powders.
Instead of saving, their use results in a
wastefulness of the most serious kind
First, there is the loss of an occasional
baking. Flour, butter and eggs cost too
much to risk spelling them with an inferior
baking powder. Royals work is uniformly
perfect, and materials are never wasted
where it is used
s In the second place. theadulterants which
are used to cheaper the cost of many
baking powders have harmful effect upon
the health. No prudent person will risk an
attack of indigestion to save few cents on
baking powder. Royal Baking Powder is
absolutely pure and wholesome actually
adding anti-dyspeptic qualities to the food.
Thus the use of the Royal is doubly
economical.

MORE ICE.
Trees and Wires Bending
Under a New Load.

That old maxim, "It never rains but
it pours," appears to be as applicable
to ice storms as to rainfalls. For the
second time in four days all Worcester
was ice-covered. New coverings were
added to the ice letters formed by
Sundays Storm Trees Rnd wires again
bent beneath their unnatural burden.
Luckily little damage was done. Com
pared to the first storm, yesterday S
was of little moment.
The day commenced with a drizZling
rain which froze as it settled on the
objects on which it fell. Fortunately,
the temperature was not sufficiently
frigid to cause more than a thin film.
Had the ice storm proved as extensive
as the previous one the damage would
have been excessive. But even a slight
film added to the ice already formed
was a serious matter. 1t is a cause of
surprise that greater damage did not
result.
That it did not is without doubt due
to Wednesdays thaw. The warm tenn
pePature loosened the icy castings from
wires altogether and partially from the
trees. So, whatever ice is now on the
wires is an entirely new formation
The trees that had withstood the great
er burden did not bend to this. Then
too, it was a case of survival of the
| flttest. The weak twigs and branches
had fellen Sunday and only the strons
remained Neithc&egas there any vino
to eomplicate matters.
| Late in the day the rain turned into
a wet snow and the city was saved
from the danger Of further ice forna-
ton.
| Walking was never worse in Wor-
eester than yesterday Ali the elements
| calculated to make pedestrianism I'M
pleasant were represented. 1t was
slippery and it was wet both underfoot
and aloft. Three inches Of water and
half-melted slush treacherously covered
a base of slippery ice. The streets were
less slippery, but the snow and water
We're deeper, SO the walker had but q
Hobson's choice.
At times the rain came down In tor
rents and then It became necessary to
maneuyre an umbrella in addition to
the pedestrians other troubles. 1t was
good day for downtown restaurants,
The majority Of them were flooded with
"transients'' who elected to stay drv
and dine down town rather than run
the risk of pneumonia by going home.
The street railways reaped q good har-
vest. Nearly every car on the Conso-
ndated carried a Standing load" dur
ing the more inclement part Of the
day.
