Changes In Constitution.
Several changes in the constitution
of the alliance were made, chief
among which was provision that a
deputy president shall be appointed
for the hemisphere opposite to that on
which the active president resides, the
policy of the convention being to elect
man from the Eastern and Western
Hemisphere alternately.
Resolutions were also adopted widen
ing the scope Of membership, which
will make the alliance probably the
largest religious organization in the
world. Secretaries will be appointed
for several of the Eastern countries.

TRYING A new
POSTAL Plan
Special Delivery Letters May Rival
The TeIephone-Being Tried In
Washington.

Washington, June 2S.-An expert
ment in expediting the delivery of
special delivery letters is being tried
in Washington which, if it proves sue
cessful, probably will be made per-
manent part of the free delivery sys-
temw and put in operation in Boston
and other large cities.
The scheme was devised by Post
master Merritt of, this city, tried sew
eral times, and although it is said to
go beyond the letter of the law in
quick delivery has met with the ap-
prevail of the postmaster-general.
The city free delivery territory in
Washington has been divided into six
zones radiating from the general post
office, each one mile in diameter. Let

had better roads he could get to town
quicker, raise more vegetables, chick
ems. hogs, ETC., because he would have
to his farm work. We in town would
share in his prosperity because he
would spend his money with us. More
stuff would be shipped to foreign mar
kets and the farmer would have more
money to spend at home. Good roads
would be lasting advertisement for
visitors to carry away and an induce
ment for people living in other parts
of the country to come and cast their
lots with US.
A Visitor Said:
This town is certainly laid out
right for q city. You are fortunate in
being new and modern because you
can bufld now for all time" He is
right, we've got the goods" to use
the vernacular expression, and al.
we've got to do is to place our ad-
vantages on paper and send it broad
cast. Advertising is the mortar used
in building business, and cities.

unanimously adopted by the conven-
tlon' The resolution follows:
Whereas, We hail with joy the
TACT that the Baptist World Alliance
Is giving such large place to the
social aspects of the Gospel and the
DUTY of Christion people to human So
ciety and
Whereas, There is a growing con-
Viction that Christianity is to domi-
nate human life in all its relations,
mat it is Christ's purpose to bring the
blessings of the kingdom into the life
OF all men. and that it is mans duty to
apply Christion principles to existing
conditions in human society, and
whereas, There are many moral
evils international in their scope
which are delaying the progress Of the
Kingdom and casting a blight over the
peoples of the earth; therefore;
Resolved, That committee on So
cial progress OF Is be appointed to me-
morialize other religious bodies in the
world to appoint similar committees
who shall confer together and en-.
deavor to secure such concerted &C
ton as shall destroy these evils and
make the impact of Christendom upon
the nations of the earth more helpful.
This committee shall also study the
further duty Of our churches to society
and shall suggest ways whereby
Jesus Christ may become a fact in the
social life of the world.
This action shall not involve the
Alliance in any expense"
Doctor Baton made a strong ad-
dress, in which he said that special

low close on the steps Of the mission
AIRY, speedily neutralizing the intro
duction of Christianity. Several other
members of the alliance made short
addresses favoring the resolution and
urging its adoption. Among those
who are responsible for the work and
have strongly advocated the amalga-
nation of the churches in such en-
deavor are Drs. F. w. Patterson, Ed

for local delivery are being sent out
without any delay at all, beyond what
is necessary to record and prepare
them properly for delivery.
Under the new plan the special deli
very messenger is allowed 25 minutes
in which to make a delivery in the first
zone and to return to the postoffice.
Forty-five minutes is allowed for the
round-trip in the second zone; one
hour and five minutes in the third
zone, and an additional 20 minutes in
each of the other six divisions, the
round trip to the furthest point being
made in two hours and Ave minutes.
Arrangements have also been made
for the prompt delivery of letters
bearing special delivery stamps when
deposited in the branch Offices, which
are scattered about the city. ~
OF special interest to persons who
want the quickest service is the plan
by which those letters deposited at
substations or contract stations will
lie called for by the messenger and de-
livered Immediately, IL the sender Of
the missive pays the cost Of telephon-
ing to the main office. Letters sent
for in this way are not passed through
the main office or branch delivery sta
lions but are taken to the address by
carrier Immediately.
A system Of checks has been estab-
lished whereby the exact minute Of
the receipt Of special delivery letter
is recorded and also the minute 1t is
sent out by messenger. These checks,
it Is said, hold the messenger up to
his duty and prevent lettering on the
way.
Postmaster Merritt says the new
system Is convenient for a man who is
detained down town on business and
can't get word of the fact to his home.
He is not competing with the tele.
phone for speed but has established
what he calls an auxiliary to that in.
strument of quick communication.
Before the new plan is tried in 9th.
er cities it will be operated for sew.
eral weeks under the immediate eye
of postoffice department officials.
