Postal Clerks Willing To Lay Griev-

Vice President Schardt.

r. j. Schardt, of Milwaukee, vice
president OF the Railway Mail Clerks
association, was the speaker at the
Board of Commerce luncheon, in the
Hotel fuller, Wednesday noon, his
subject being The Relation of the
railway mail service to the CONNER

the service that IL renders to the
commercial world The postal SER
vice will be what the people want II
to be-" said Mr.. Schardt. The man
agement OF 1t Is in the hands OF The
people, through their representatives
In Washington. 1t is a question that
should be seriously considered by the
people whether II is advisable 10 re-
duce the expenses OF the service at
the cost of reduced efficiency.
The chief cause OF complaint
against the service at present Is that
1T Is undermined and that mail is
sometimes delayed in central cities
as long as "a hours, because there -
not the proper force TO sort 1t IN
transit.
There has been some talk Of a
strike in the railway mail service. |
am glad TO say that find no feelings
of that sort around Detroit, though
there ia at present considerable dis
satisfaction in the northwest. Ii is
true that overtures have been receiv-
ed from the American Federation or
Labor, asking that our organization
enter into an alliance with them, but
do not believe that we VIII have
TO resort to coercive measures as
long az American public opinion Is
Alive to the necessity OF what we ask
for. We are willing to trust to the
people TO grant our reasonable de-
mands. The danger is that public
opinion will not pay the proper at
tention to the affairs OF the service
and allow a policy of false economy
TO impose unreasonable restrictions
upon us.
Mr. Schardt was the guest OF honor
and principal speaker OF the annual
banquet, Tuesday evening. In the Hote'

ninth division OF the Railway Mail

Mr.. Schardt. The public are the

A GIRLS ROOM.

A girl can learn nothing more use
full than the simple trick of having
her own room beautiful, attractive and
clean. It is not always possible to
have the furniture, but one can have
a honey looking" room. One thing
is absolutely necessary, room must
be clean, bedspreads, pretty linen
dresser pieces and chair cushions are
necessary. Cover the trunk (if kept
in the ROOM with a cretonne cover,
and have a scrap basket to hold little
odds and ends which must be burned.
On the table have well selected books
and magazines. Keep gay postal
cards in neat postal card book. Do
not decorate the walls with them, for
pretty as they are they soon hang
crooked and make a room look untidy.
Have place for shoes, for if any
thing makes room upset it is pair
of tan shoes lying, pigeon-toed, under
the bed and another pair of black
ones under the dresser. Keep the
closet in order SO that when the door
is opened you will not be ashamed to
have any one see how you keep your
clothes. II you put things away as
you use them you can have room
like this. Have one palm or fern
grace your room, and if it dies get a
new one.
