BY EDWARD q. CLARK.

With the coming of the New Year
the United States government will en-
ter into new field of enterprise
the transmttal of merchandise by what
Is known as the parcel post.
It Is no exaggeration to say that
thousands upon thousands Of inquir.
les have been made of the postmaster
general as to Just what the parcel
post will mean to tbe people. 1t was
the law of congress- establishing the
system which mad provision for a
division of the Vountry In zones
and into $4,000 UNI which are to be
used as centers in describing the cir
cles which mark the boundaries of
the zones. There has been no clear
understanding. apparently, of this
sone system. but really 1t is a very
simple matter
The accompanying map shows the
country divided into zones from the
unit in which Washington is sit
uated. as the center. Accompanying
the map Is q table showing the rate
Of postage per pound for parcels from
Washington to places within all the
sones.
Each unit contains an area thirty
miles square. Now each unit is a
center from which the zones are
drawn and so every unit in the coun-
try no matter where 1t ia situated will
have zones drawn from 1t just exactly
a. Washington has them drawn from
1t. For instance. take Keokuk. Ia.
which Is in unit in the fifth zone.
From that will be drawn circles ex.
actly as they are drawn from Wash
ington and they will be numbered from
Keokuk as number one. just as they
are numbered from Washington as
number one OF course, however.
Zone Six will have a different geo.
graphical position as related to Keo-
kuk than 1t has as related to Wash.
fngton, but as the radius OF the circles
