CHANGES ARE MADE
IN POSTAL SYSTEM

The Postmaster General has issued an
order that hereafter postal stations for
the receipt and dispatch OF mails that
are located outside of the corporate
limits of cities shall be known as branch
postohices and shall be entered sepa-
rately IN the postal guide. In the prompt
and economical handling OF mail matter
the department often finds Il advanta-
geOus to combine p0stofices adjacent to
a large city under one management and
to make the smaller postOhIce a sta
ton Of the larger one. The principal
objection 70 the consolidation Of post
offices IN separate municipalities has
been that when a pOstoffice IS made a
station OF another office IL loses its
identity as a separate town. These
changes viii go into effect with the new
issue Of the postal guide. II IS expected
for distribution abort July l.

liLcal power IN Alabama, IS proven by
the fact that he has received dispatches

Church last night, referring to the
Pennsylvania avenue escapade.
Dixie was the theme on which the
Representative ADDRESSED his audience at
the church after being introduced by
the Rev. B. p. Truitt. pastor OF the
church. Much OF his time was given TO
a discussion OF the race question He
urged separate cars, separate waiting

said. had helped 10 solve the problem in
