good.
Being composed exclusively of vege-

Why She couldn't Accept,

Telephone operators who plug wrong
numbers or get the wires crossed
sometimes are responsible for very
embarrassing situations, as was ex.
emplified by a broker.
The broker called up his home
number and said to the person on the
other end of the wire:
Hello, dear, is that your

WILL SUNDAY
MAILS Be STOPPED
Movement in Detroit to Abolish Sun
day Working Of Mail Clerks
May be Universally
Affecting.
WOULD BE MISSED
Sunday Morning Mail at the Carriers
Windows Would be Put Away
if Detroit Measure
Won Out
WOULD BE MISSED

Wouldn't it be great il Keokuk peo-
pie had to go without their Sunday
mail hereafters Decidedly no.
Agitation, the scope of which will
be national. has been started in De-
troit to close the postoffices on Sun
day. The movement is being directed
by the joint forces of the carriers and
postal clerks and as enthusiasm and
encouragement have been met with
so far, the men actively engaged in
this reform feel that there is good
chance that their desires will be at
tanned.
At present the movement is prac-
tically confined to Detroit, but it had
its inception really at national con-
vention and, if successful there, will
undoubtedly sweep the entire country.
The immediate intention is to arouse
public opinion and to direct it in be-
half of a strict Sabbath observance in
/ the postoffice; for it is believed that
as soon as such public opinion is crys-
talized there will be no difficulty in
securing the necessary permission to
eliminate the distribution of mail on
1 Sunday. If the reform is secured it
will affect $50 employees in Detroit, not
any one of whom has Sunday to
himself and many of whom are obliged
4 to work ten hours on that day, with
no allowance made either in time or in
money.
At present the postoffices in most
cities are open between and II
| o'clock Sunday mornings, during which
time citizens may claim their mail at
the windows of the carriers who go to
work at Z o'clock, while the clerks
have a ten-hour day. Formerly the
hour of Sunday mail was from IL to 1
o'clock, a very convenient time for
people returning from church. When
| the time was changed to the earlier
hour, the number was diminished rs
per cent, thus proving that it was not
matter of necessity with most peo-
pie, but rather a habit which was soon
forgotten when comparatively early
hour was named.
While it is believed that almost all
of this Sunday labor can be eliminated
yet 1t is realized that there will always
have to be little work done on the
Sabbath for hotels and few institu-
tons must be taken care OF, but if the
general delivery at carriers windows
| Is cut out the labor will be diminished
TO such an extent that one man would
not have to work more than ono SIM
day, perhaps, in a year.
The matter of Sunday mail deliver
les was brought up first at the conven-
ton of the National Association of
Letter Carriers, held in st. Paul, in
1909, at which time the secretary of
the Lords Day alliance urged that a
reform in this direction be started.
at present Colorado Springs is the
only postoffice closed on Sundays.
