You will notice in the morning issue
of the Star on May that President
Barrow gave Mondays game to Buff
falo by the score s 10 I. Is there any
particular reason why the pool score
was not rectified? Seems to me that
that one run should be credited to
Buffalo. To decide a second prize
please let me know as soon as con-
venient. f. +.
The run doesn't belong in the pool,
because President Barrow's decisions
don't cover the pool. The umpire's
verdict goes in all cases. If he de-
cides the game Q to it will be SO in
the pool, although later on Presi-
dent Barrow may decide otherwise.
That's why Buffalo didn't get the
run in the pool

OBSERVE PROPER CARE
IN WRAPPING PACKAGES
Advice Given to Citizens Who
PatrOnize the Parcel
Post System.

IF the senders of parcel post pack
ages will only see that they are securely
wrapped in stout paper and bear the
correct address they need have no fear that
they will not be delivered TO their proper
destination. Insecure wrapping with
thin paper that is easily torn, insufficient
addresses and the failure to give the
name of the sender are responsible for the
majority of losses of parcel post matter.
Such was the statement made by AS
sistant City Postmaster Louis ]. Robin
son in an address on the uses of the
parcel post before the quarterly meeting
of the Retail Merchants Association
last night at 1902 f street northwest.

Mr.. Robinson urged the members of
the association to see hat no parcel
post packages leave their places of bust
ness unless they are securely wrapped. He
suggested that besides writing the name
of the sender on the outside OF the pack
age they should put a card bearing the
same information in the package as
double precaution. When packages are
prepared in this way they will never
reach the dead letter Office. he said, be-
cause should the outer wrapping be torn
off the post office authorities will know
where TO return the matter.
Mr. Robinson spoke of the errors of
the clerks at the branch stations in drug
stores throughout the city and also at
the substations in calculating the proper
amount of postage.
Such errors are bound to be made
until every one becomes more familiar
with the new system. OF course, errors
are more frequently made in the branch
offices where the clerks are not as
thoroughly trained as those in the reg
branch offices in Washington few
and far between. however, for our rec
ords show that We have the most efficient
branch office clerks of any city in the
country.
Mr.. Robinson distributed pamphlets
containing valuable parcel post instruC
ton To the members, and explained the
method of insuring such mail matter. He
explained the use Of the parcel post map
and guide.
