Oh where shall rest be found,
Rest for the weary soul?
'Twere vain the oceans depths to sound
Or pierce to either pole.
The world can never give
The bliss for which we sigh;
IT'S not the whole of life to live
Nor all of death to die.
Beyond this vale of tears
There is life above
Unmeasured by the flight of years,
And all that life is love.
There is a death whose pang
Outlasts the fleeting breath;
Oh, what eternal horrors hang
Around the second death!
Thou God of truth and grace
Teach US that death to shun:
Lest we be banished from thy face,
For evermore undone.

MAY MAKE RURAL MAIL BOXES

DeGraw in Annual Report Says They
Must Conform to Specifications.
In his annual report Fourth Assist
ant Postmaster General DeGraw has
this to say of the rural free delivery
service:
"The requirements for the establish
ment of rural delivery have been the
years except that since December /,
1905, it is required, before service is
installed, that the postmaster at the
distributing Office certify that not less
than three-fourths of the possible pa
irons have provided for mail boxes
conforming to the regulations. The
initial step in securing the Inaugural
ton of rural delivery service is the fill
ing of petition for such service. For
merly it was the practice of the de-
partment to accept petitions for in
vestigation as to the advisability of
instituting the service without any
preliminary inquiry as to whether the
petitioners were residents along the
proposed route. Thus petitions were
accepted, investigated, and in many
instances routes were established
where there was no general desire for
rural delivery, the petitions having
been circulated by persons whose sole
object was to secure positions as car.
riers, or in the case of some fourth
class postmasters to increase their
compensation, and signed by anyone
willing to sign, regardless of whether
he resided where he could patronize
the service.
Inquiry is now made through post
masters as to whether petitioners are
heads of families or householders ac
tually residing along the proposed
route of delivery, and if SO, it is pre-
sumed they have petitioned in gooC
faith for the service.

spector visits the locality and If the
conditions are favorable lays out thu

thorough search was made in Bone
