FINAL EFFORTS TO {
STOP SUNDAY MAIL
Business Men to Decide If
Employees Should Have
Day of Rest.

With the strong Endorsement of trade
bodies, half a dozen citizens associa-
uons, and one organization of retail
merchants and the written solicitations
of hundreds of citizens. the letter-car-
riers today are making final campaign
for relief from Sunday duty.
The verdict lies with the business men
of Washington. Many of them already
have signified their hearty approval of
the project.
Officials of the Washington City Post
office today have in their possession
facts from large cities which have dis
continued Sunday delivery of mail and
from several which are about to do So
The situation in Washington is trying
on mail carriers because here they can
not even get the alternate Sundays off
they are supposed to get The force is
SO organized that because of the inter-
Vention of the Christmas holidays and
other special occasions 1t is impossible
for the average carrier to get off more
than about twenty Sundays during the
year.
The Postoffice Department already has
announced its policy of closing the Sun
day delivery windows in all cities where
there Is not a demand for Sunday mails
About 325 carr ers of Washington
will be affected by the Sunday clos
ing and ITS clerks, making 500 men
who will be off duty on Sunday, as
a result of the closing.

More american Fairy Tales
JIMMIE AND DAN, TIE FAIRY TOAD.
I THE YOUNGSTERS, AND THE OLDsTERs, TOO

In his left-hand pants pocket was
what he valued most OF ALL; his
playmate, his true friend. his chum
"A HORNED TOAD.
The toad's name was Dan. Jimmie
and Dan were all in all to each other,
for Jimmie's mother was very poor
and he had no other playthings.
Jimmie walked on and on until the
sun rose high in the sky and made
him very hot and tired. Then he
stopped TO rest under big maple
tree. The tired little boy leaned
back against the fine old maple
tree. with his big straw hate tilted
over his eyes, and soon fell fast
asleep.
Pretty soon Dan. the fat little
toad, popped out from Jimmies left
out on the grass. His sharp eyes
looking at Jimmie again and again
TO see IL the boy would wake up
and Dan hoped onto Jimmie's
knee. and slowly. lightly, crawled
and crept to Jimmie's shoulder.
Dan kept perfectly still for a
moment. Then he stretched and
stretched his neck, and standing as
high as he could on his hind legs,
placed his mouth close to the boys
ear
Dan, the horned toad, seemed to
be whispering to Jimmie, the runa-
way boy. Pretty soon Jimmie be-
gan to talk in his sleep. AS II he
were answering his mother:
why, no. mother, am not go
Ing away-for love you too
much. I dreamed that I had. and
that you were 80 worried about II
that II made you sick in bed"
Jimmie yawned and stretched
himself, and Dan fell to the grass;
but the boy never noticed 1t. First
he put his hand In his jacket pocket
for cookies to eat, and then he
said. IL must give Dan some, too"
But Dan wasn't there. Jimmie
looked and saw his pet horned toad
hopping. back toward home. Jimmie
started after him and they ran all
the way home!
Can Ii be, children, that the
horned toad was a fairy?

linquish the instrument she was keep
ing from use. The conversation went
merrily on.
In despair the lady sought the cor
ner drug store. Seated squarely in
the center of the bench before the
telephone table was a woman sc
placed that while she talked over one
instrument she kept anyone else from
using the other. The sign above the
table read: please limit your con-
versation to three minutes The talk
er was conversing with a girl friend
about one of her beaux The exasper-
ated lady who was hunting public
telephone took up the book and
sought out her number; then she
stood by the table and waited. Five
minutes went by; the girl continued
her conversation. The lady took ont
her watch. and just IL minutes elaps-
ed before the girl put up the receiver
and walked coolly out OF the store.
This story is not manufactured; IT
is wholly true. And, being true, IL
reflects upon the women. Public tele-
phones are not placed in stores,
banks and hotels as places where
young women may conveniently hirt,
or women plan social campaigns.
Still less as convenience for girls
who wish to discuss the vices or vir-
tues of their beaux. They are placed
in business houses for the conven-
fence of people who have business >to
transact. Selfish lack Of considera-
ton is the reason why so many bust
ness houses have installed pay tele-
phones with time limit to CONVERSE
ton.

1t was in a big department store
which was always crowded. Above
the telephone sign announced:
This telephone is for the accommo-
dation of our customers; please make

A lady came hurriedly to the
phone; her business was urgent. AT
the phone stood girl, and the lady
heard the following:

had gathered during the guessing

had been waiting to phone the i'm

street to use the phone in bank.
In the ladies' room she found two
women, one on each side OF the table

discussed some plan which they
