1t is important that the public
| should know that post cards with
tinsel or mica on them are unmail-
able unless enclosed in an envelope.
\ If there is writing on the card. then
| it becomes first-olass matter and will
| require a 2-cent stamp. If there is
no writing, and the envelope remains
| unsealed. then il will go for / cent.
| OF course. the stamp and the ad-
dress must be on the envelope, else
| it cannot be Cancelled nor the ad
dress read. From five to ten cards
| of this character are dropped into
this office every day. Some of them
are enclosed in an onion-skin trans
parent envelope, but they have the
stamp on the card inside where it
cannot be cancelled. and the card
must be held here and the addressee
! notified that it is here and that they
must send the postage due to get it.
If this is not done it will 20 to the
dead letter office.
1t is astonishing to note the num-
Der of post cards that are dropped
, into the office without any stamp
upon them at all. They are thus de-
layed until the addressee can be no
titled. A great many of these cards
are dropped into the postofiice unad-
dressed, and there is nothing on them
TO indicate where they go to or where
they come from. These cards are
often mailed by transients passing
through the city. and. of course, they
never reach their destination and
must he sent to the dead letter Of
flee.
Be sure to remember about tying
up your package well, and to ad-
dress them properly with street and
number Then, as a matter of pre-
caution, put your return card on the
package also. There are not nearly
so many dishonest people in the post
Office department as the public are
sometimes led to believe. The fail
ure to receive your letters and pack
ages are just as often the fault of
the people who do not take the nee
essary care and precaution in mail
ing as it is to the dishonesty of the
government employees.
Ii you have any grievance or COM
plant to make, just call ON the post
master and give him the particulars.
and perhaps 1t can be Strengthened
out by investigation. 1t is our pur
pose to give the patrons OF. the Grand
Junction postofiice the very best ser
vice we can under the postal regula-
tions. If our employees make mis-
takes. we want to know it. so that
we can avoid them in the future and
caution them not to make them
again.

Free School luncheons.

In England the problem of feeding
insufficiently nourished school children
has become so acute that many munici-
palities have been compelled to supply
free breakfasts at least to thousands
of public school pupils. The Salvation
Army abandoned its work in this field
for awhile. but the need was so great
that it had to take 1t up again. and last
year it supplied over $4,000 break
fasts to children at charge of half a
cent each.
In looking for a food that would be
cheap and at the same time sufficiently
nourishing the experts employed rec
commended a breakfast consisting of a
currant roll weighing six ounces and
mug Of cocoa. This decision con-
firms the conclusions Of some Of the
worlds leading diet specialists that
currants are one of the most nourishing
and wholesome and at the same time
one of the cheapest food products.

BAY STATE HAS FIRST
AMERICAN LINEN MILL.

Mechanical and Chemical Process
That Saves Time, Labor and Money
Puts View Industry on Profit Making
Basix
With the announcement that a proc
ess of linen making has been discov-
cred adaptable to American conditions
keen interest is manifested in the de-
tails Of the process by which it is ex-
pected that large part of the S20,OOO,-
600 now spent abroad for linens will
be kept at home The Nudge process
controlled by the Oxford Linen mills.
whose first plant is being equipped at
North Brookfield. MasS. is as follows:
The fax straw Is fed into a machine
that removes the seed and passes the
straw to a set of Huted rollers. which,
after breaking it. discharge it into re-
volving drums equipped with scutch-
ing and hacking machinery. In these
drums the shive. or woody portion, is
loosened from the fiber. which is now
ready. after final cleaning. to be
passed into the tubs for the secret
chemical treatment that removes the
gums and bleacEos the fiber to pure
white.
This process takes only day to
produce results that require sixteen
weeks by European methods. Not only
is a vast amount Of time and labor
saved, but the new process yields al
most twice as much fiber as the old
from given amount of straw. saves
the seed, converts the shive into paper
pulp and employs the tow for the
making of 'savoil." linen machinery
waste. and "oxolint." an absorbent lin
en- for surgical purposes.
With the great economies made pos
sible by this process and using a raw
material that costs only third as much
as cotton in the making Of fabrics
that sell for much higher prices than
cottons command. large profits are
counted upon in this first successful eff
fort at linen making In the United
States. for the process has passed the
experimental stage.

EQUAL PAY FOR WOMEN?
The Single Woman's Demand For the
Married Mans Wage New Feature
of the Suffrage Movement.

The Single Woman's Demand For the
Married Mans Wage New Feature
Of the Suffrage Movement.
With the admission by the New York
women school teachers that they are
not working merely for an increase of
pay, but for equalization Of salaries as
between men and women, it is realized
that the equal pay movement has be-
come an important feature of the wo-
man suffrage propaganda. This de-
mand for equal pay by the teachers has
been taken up by the aggressive suf-
fragettes. who see in it an opportunity
to enlist Indifferent sisters in the cause.
Nothing less than the equalization Of
the salaries of single women up to the
wage Of the married men will satisfy
the teachers. That so per cent Of men
teachers are the heads of families and
that 80 per cent are aiding other rela-
tiyes in no way abates the women's de
mands. nor are they dismayed by the
fact that for well settled economic rea-
sons stenographers and other women
workers receive less pay than men.
What a concession to the equal pay
demand would entail in the way of in
creased taxation is shown by the fact
that it would cost New York city alone
over 100000 year to equalize its
school teachers salaries.
This is only one of the factors that
led the superintendent of New York
schools to state that neither by any
received economic theory nor by the
analogy of any practice in any walk
of life can it be regarded as sound pol
icy to determine the salaries of the
great majority (womenl of the teaching
force by the salaries paid to compare
lively few (men) who are employed for
special purposes"
