JAPARs NAVY LOSS

The storm which swept Japan Monday night
and yeStt rday has done more than take the lives
Of some thousands of people. 1t has damaged
the formidable navy structure which Nippon is
building up at the expense Of tax-ridden

Whether the damage to the navy is the loss
Of four battleships or of two torpedo-boat de-
strcyers and two battleships has not been def
niteIy determined, nor is it known certainly that
the vessels are Of the late and costly types.
However, the blow is very serious one at this

FARMER AND COUNTRY MERCHANT GET QUICK ACTION BY
PARCELS POST-AND MAYBE THE MAIL ORDER MAN TOO!
BY ellison Gardner.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 81.
The new parcels post furnishes
every small town merchant with
cheap delivery service to his
farmer customers, beginning
Jan. /.
For example, Farmer Jones
breaks a small part in his
thresher-at p. m. He tele-
phones to the village store where
there is an agency for the
threshing machine company, ITO
send him out a new piece by the
rural carrier the next morning.
Say the package weighs three
pounds. He gets the local rate"
and costs cents postage.
That's quick delivery at slight
cost.
The farmers wife gets in on
the game, too. She has been
making a new dress and finds
herself short a yard of material.
She drops a note to the store
with a sample. Next day she
gets her cloth before 10 o'clock.
The country merchant has al
ways been afraid of parcels post.
His fear was that the big city
mail order houses would use it
to make even bigger inroads on
his business, that, for example, a
Chicago house would come into
violent competition with the
little country merchant in Texas
by scent stamp.
The zone system protects the
country merchant from the COM
petition which would result from
a flat rate parcels post system.
AS the distance increases the Cost
increases.
The mall order house must do
business at a distance under the
sending. However, the mail or
der house will also profit by Sc
curing a cheaper rate of delivery
than they have heretofore had
by express. Hitherto a large part
of their business had been car
ried by freight, which while II
costs less, is slow. With the OPP
poi Iuhily opSHVu up W otL u
small packages at reasonable
rates quickly, the mail order
house will undoubtedly develop
new lines of business which will
be convenience and profit to
all consumers.
It should be remembered that
this particular plan of parcels
post is entirely experimental. 1t
is up to the people to try it.
If the plan does not work the
law is of such a character that
the postmaster general can change
any part of the plan and it is up
to you, as one of the public, to
put in your protest or your sug-
gCStion as to how the rules ought
to be changed-after you try the
system and know something about
it.
