The Mercer Telegram says there is a
deal of talk about establishing a cream
cry at that place, and that a practical
creamery man has made a proposition.
1t would be well, before this venture
is begun, for those interested in the
movement to have the farmers in that
community sign a contract to the effect
that they will not sell any cream to the
c%entralizers who offer a bigger price,
as soon az the creamery is started. I'm
less the farmers do this, the institution
is broke before it starts, for the CEN
tralizers are after the lambs and they
generally get them, because the farm

His name has since been withdrawn as
stated in another column and Mayor

PARCELS POST AND STUDENTS

PARCELS POST AND STUDENTS
The parcels post will be of grea,
benefit to the average student. 1t will
enable him to get those much-desired
boxes from home" oftener. Hereto
fore, because of the cost, boxes came
so seldom to the student that he often
forgot what they really meant. Now,
however, the student will be able to
get dainties from his mother and
"her" quite often.
The parcels post should benefit
everyone. Express rates have been
SO high that distribution of anything
not especially valuable was impossi-
ble Many times fruit would be rot
ting in one county and be in great
demand in the next The parcels
post will mean an easier distribution
of fruits. 1t will undoubtedly bring
the express rates down also.
Write home to mother and tell her
what the parcels post really means
to you Perhaps she'll take the hint
You might tell her, too.

Parcels Post" and in a similar panel
at the bottom Postage Due" in Ro-
man capital letters. In the center
upon background of lathework and
within a circular frame, is a large
numeral expressing the denomination
The upper half of the circular frame
carries the denomination in words
These stamps will be used where an
article is in the mails without the
proper amount of postage.
The regular parcel post stamps will
be used exclusively on fourth-class
mail after January 1, 1913. They will
not be good for any other use nor will
any other stamps be good for sending
fourth-class mail. The service is for
packages. In order to make the serv-
ice sufficient as many new employees
as needed will be put on. To start
with only one auxiliary carrier will
be added to the force at the Colum-
bia pOstoffice.
A third kind of stamps which are
constantly being brought to our at
tention at the present time are the
Christmas stamps. Some people still
think they can buy Red Cross stamps
and use them for postage. Since many
Of the designs are much like those on
the regular postage stamps their use
has been restricted.
Concerning Imitation Stamps.
Uncle Sam says through his post
office department that mo adhesive
stamps or imitation of stamps of any
form or design whatever other than
lawful postage stamps, shall be af-
fixed to the address side of domestic
mail matter But such adhesive
stamps. provided they do not in form
and design resemble lawful postage
stamps and do not bear numerals, may
be affixed to the reverse side of do
mestic mail matter"
1t is also provided that when this
rule is not followed the letters will
be sent back to the sender or the Di-
vision of Dead Letters. This last rule
was revoked a short time during the
holidays last year so persons would
not be deprived of their Christmas
mail
If the Christmas stamps resemble
postage stamps they can not be used
on mail to Austria. Norway and Por-
tugaI. And unless the stamps are
affixed to the back side of the letter
with regular postage on the front
mail can not be sent to Germany,
Great Britain, British East Africa and
many of the smaller countries of the
world. To preclude delay the sender
should put their names on the pack
ages and if the mail cannot be deliv-
cred it will be sent back to them.

along this line. Then, too. the sani
tation of the canal zone was a stu
pendous undertaking and proved how
efficient were the American medical
men.
When completed the Panama Canal
will have cost $322,541.46S. The for.
tifications alone will cost $2s, $50 900
The builder of the canal is Colonel
George w. Goethals, graduate OF
West Point and an army engineer
Much praise is due him, for he is
completing the task of connecting the
two oceans after all other engineers,
great and small, had failed.

THE FEAT OF THE CENTURY.

Some time next summer or fall a
vessel will pass from the Atlantic to
the Pacific Ocean through the Pan
anna Canal and the colossal engineer
ing feat of dividing the Western
Hemisphere into two continents will
have been completed. For the last
eight years the American engineers
have carried on the greatest engi-
neering work the world has ever
seen.
The three things that presented the
most difficulties to the canal builders
were the slides in the great Culebra
cut, the construction of the huge
locks at Gatun and Mirafiores and Pc
dro Miguel, and the insulation of the
electrical machinery. The extra work
caused by the slides may be appre-
ciated from the fact that nearly g.
100000 yards of earth excavated was
so composed. or nearly 36 per cent
OF the total excavation.
Lock machinery constructed of
special designs of a magnitude never
before heard of had to be made for
the locks at Gatun, Mirafores and
Pedro Miguel
Owing to the peculiar climatic con-
ditions on the isthmus, with tropical
heat and extreme humidity. the or
dinary electrical insulation proved
unreliable and the engineers had to
make a great number of experiments

LIFT UP THE "MOVIES,

The moving picture has assumed a
prominent place in the life of the ma
ton. Six nights in the week the mov-
ing-picture shows are grinding out
their reels of excitement and enchant-
ment before crowds of men, women
and children. This new popular play
house has become one of the greatest
means of direct instruction 1t has
become the great popular night school
of the land.
The craze for the moving-picture
show is partly due to it's cheapness
but chiefly TO the fact that the pic
lures are realistic. Fortunately mo-
ton pictures cannot be drawn by an
artist, but must be the result of real
action. Unlike the novel, their i'm
preston is made directly through the
senses and without the use of the
imagination. Herein lies much Of
their popularity.
Especially are moving pictures pop
ular with young persons. Boys and
girls throng to them. They have
come to be a great secondary elemen-
tary school Their influence is espe-
cially great with children because it
is upon their minds that lasting i'm
pressions are easily made
Unfortunately for the moving-pic-
ture business, it is in the hands Of
private enterprise. Many of the men
running the shows purely for money
have little or no feeling of social re-
sponsibility. They appeal to the boys
and girls by showing pictures demor-
alizing in their nature. Far more
realistic than the dime novel are the
movies" showing robberies, holdups
and murders.
The 'nickels' are crowded to see
the deeds of the James boys. The
youth is shown, and does not have to
use his imagination as to how train
robberies and holdups are pulled off,"
Wild West scenes are popular. Boys
learn the bravado of an imaginary
western life. Night after night acts
of criminal and depraving nature
are impressed upon the minds of the
young, Many, perhaps the majority,
of the pictures are merely dime nov
els dramatized, but ten times more
poisonous and hurtful to character.
The use of vicious films is the sad
story of the moving picture. How
easy might the moving picture be
made a great force for good. What
a great influence for moral uplight
might it be made! Something ought
to be done to utilize the splendid pos
sibilities of the moving picture as an
instructive and moralizing agency.
