GREENVILLE, MISS.

\ our committee appointed by the
Leader, November the Twenty sixth
TO draft resolutions expressive Of our
Margaret Bottome, submit most re-
spectfully the following:
Whereas, In the death Of Mrs. Mar
garet Bottome whose gentle nature
and spiritual devotion created, with a
chosen few, the nucleus for a great
band numbering thousands, and oc-
cupying every known quarter OF our
civilized globe, inspiring by her ex-
ample and prayers, the lives of her
co-1aborers, be it therefore
Resolved, That in the death Of this
rare woman, we, and all women have
suffered the loss of a vitalizing ex-
ample,--a spiritual inspiration and a
sustaining stimulus;
Resolved, That although we can
pay no fitting tribute to Mrs Marga-
ret Bottome, her noble work. which
We all regard as a worldwide bene
faction, shall be to us a shining mon
ument OF woman's highest endeavors;
as serving in the very Courts Of the
Master.
Resolved, That its gracious radi-
ance shall light our stumbling feet
in the way she has marked out!
Resolved, That we will cherish her
memory as a sweet smelling saviour
till We too are called to lay the tai
ents intrusted to our keeping at the
feet OF Him who said
II e love me do my work
Mrs. Mary a. Everman.

THOMAS DIXON, JR,
AS A MATCHMAKER

While Thomas Dixon, Jr, has never
posed as matchmaker, he is Indirect
iy responsible for no less than six
weddings within eleven months. In
each instance the young people, now
happily mated, met while members OF
his various theatrical enterprises
The Clansman with IT'S three com
panies, of course leads by five wed

companies), was in the matrimonial
market by the time the players had
rehearsed three days. Since the good
news has been spread broadcast, Mr.
Dixon has been besieged by modest
bachelors, willing widows, and hope
full old maids-all applying for posi-
tons as players or on the business
staff OF some one of the five COM
panies.
Beginning with the most recent
stunt OF Cupid was that of Dave Rut-
ledge and Belle St. Claire, of "The
One Woman company-it happened
like this: Dave was rehearsing the
part Of Overman in the number two
company, and Miss ST Claire was
cast as his opposite, playing the part
OF Kate the adventures The first
day the company assembled at Tuxe-
do Hall in New York City, they were
introduced by F. Z. Rose, the stage
ahao cal f1,nx
sat on the benches which line the hall
and talked about the play, about
Alaska and Socialism. Somehow they
seemed interested in each other.
Second day Rutledge was sure Miss
ST. Claire was never meant to be an
adventures in real life, even if she
did play the part on thestage. He
told her so, and she murmured solne-
thing about this wonderful insight
how he could read a woman's very
soul And the chest of the genial
Dave swelled with pride, and the
tickling sensation about his heart
grew more acute.
Third day Rutledge and Miss ST
Claire were sitting side by side wait.
ing for their respective cites, when
representative of the Autograph con.
Germ brought in his big twenty-fo1iT
sheet stand for Mr.. Dixon's inspec.
ton. The most striking thing abo's
the paper for the bill boards was the
splendid display Of the title of the
show: "The One Woman" All the
company admired the work OF the
photographer and Dave turned to the
charming little woman at his side ano
said: do you know, Belle, IL
mean Miss St. Claire-that ever since
I met YOU three short days ago
have been absolutely sire that you
are the One Woman for me.
"But Dave-I mean Mr.. Rutledge :
You have only known me three days..

The equipment of the railway
mail service consists of cars used
exclusively for the mail and apart
ments on railway cars. electric
cars and steamboats,. Last fiscal
year there were in use LOIS full
cars, 2,T0S apartment cars and 1l5
apartments on steamboats,, max

used on through mail trains-the
apartment cars on local trains
Two or more clerks work the full
railway postnffice lines; single
clerk usually looks after local
line. A number of exclusive mail
trains made up of three or more
full cars employ force of from
six to seventeen clerks. The line
employing the largest number of
clerks, seventeen, is one OF the
runs on the New York and Chi
cago R. p O. over the New York
Central railroad.
All the equipment is provided
by the railroad or steamboat line

and apartments are built, however.
according to specifications fur
n'shed by the pos,office depart
ment. These specifications have
tor their object the building OF
cars and apartments in such man
ner as to combine carrying ca
pacity and strength; anti-tele-
scoping features looking to the
protection OF the clerks in case OF
wreck have received special at
tention.
DIscouraging though it may be,
it is nevertheless true that, judg-

been little improvement in rail

past thirty years. When we take
