An Overdue Kick.

EDITOR NEWS HERALD: Will you
kindly give me space to register a
long overdue kick about the arrange
ments provided for dealing out mail
from the carriers window after the
evening mail is distributed These
arrangements are, have no doubt,
responsible for more profanity than
any other one thing on the town plat.
The disagreeable inconvenience of
having to participate In a football
scrimmage in order to exercise the
prerogative of inquiring for ones
mail is bad enough, but more than
that, the system in vogue Is rapidly
wiping out common politeness. In
fact, to Judge from the action of
many who call nightly for mail that
never seems to come, common polite
ness Is already thing of the past.
Many who we're either born with a
sense OF gentility or have had 1t
grated into them in some manner,
await their turns, only to see ILL
hammered persons-some of them
young and some of them full grown
who have just come in, push their way
before the windows In front of the
line, brazenly ignoring the rights of
others. Ignorance may be a slight
excuse for this, but that is no reason
why 1t should be permitted. Cannot
Postmaster Patton devise some means
by which railing can be erected
and mannerless people be compelled
to await their turns ? SUFFERER.

Lecture Course.

To the Patrons-There will be an
other Lecture or Entertainment
Course this winter under the auspices
of the Public Schools. The Courses
for tie past two seasons have proven
success financially, and we believe,
have given general satisfaction.
While some attractions may not have
come up to our expectations, others
have exceeded them, and on the whole
we have gotten more than full value
for the price of a season ticket. Not
only that, but we believe that our En-.
tertainment Courses have been edu-
cational and elevating and real ben.
eft to our community.
The plan this year is to have four
strong attractions at the same cost of
five that are not quite SO strong. The
course will consist of two concerts and
two lectures.
1t has been thought advisable to
bring back the Concert Fav0rites"
Concert Company that gave such uni
versal satisfaction last season, and
they will be the opening number, Oc-
tober 2l. 1t Is not necessary to say
anything further, for the public knows
what they can do.
The next number will be DR.. Frank
w. Gunsaulus, of Chicago, perhaps
the leading pulpit orator in this coun-
try today and frequently s.,. styled d. the s;:
matchless eloquence. He is one of
the highest priced lecturers In Amer
lea at present and can be secured for
only a limited number of engage
ments.
The third number will be the Hon.
John Temple Graves, editor of the
ATLANTA Constitution" the leading
paper In the South. He was the sue
cessor, In that position, to the lamen-
ted Henry Grady, regarded Dy many
as the most brilliant man the South
has produced since the Civil War.
Mr.. Graves 10 leading exponent of
the South and Its ideas and ideals,
