Numbers For r. r. D. Boxes.
An order went out from the postof-
flee department recently to the effect
that all rural free delivery boxes
should be numbered from l on up, and
that the numbering should be COM
pleted by October l. For some reason
however, the order has been changed
and the date by which the numbering
must be completed has been indefinite
ly postponed. There has been no little
complaint against the numbering ar
rangement, small country dealers hold
ing that 1t will play right into the
hands of the big mail order houses

has anything to do with the temporary

board of directors Of the institution
met this month and recommended the
election Of DIR. Theron H. Rice OF At
lanta. for the presidency, and the fuii
board will meet on October 10 to pass
upon this nomination. After this the
synods Of the states of South Carolina.
Georgia, Florida and Alabama will have
10 confirm this action, and there are
rumors of opposition to the selection
Of Dr. Rice on account Of the part he
took in the proposition for the remov-
al of the Seminary to Atlanta. This Is.
perhaps, the most important matter
before the synod. although there are
q number of other matters Of interest
to the Presbyterian denomination to
come up.
