POSTAL Revenues REVENUES
INCREASE in SOUTH
Probably 20 or 80 Per Cent
Increase

Atlanta, July 31.-Figures compiled
here indicate that the government 8
postal revenues in the South will in.
crease this year from 20 to 80 per cent
on account of the parcels post. Con-
ditions at the local postoffice, in col
ume of mail, revenue from stamps,
and the like, seem to bear out this es,
innate.
While the postal department is re-
ioicing, the railroads, which have u
carry the mail for Uncle Sam, see in
this increase one injustice and hard
ship the more, since under the present
system of paying, they will not receive
any money for the increased weight
they have to haul To make it worse
for them, they contend, they were be-
ing paid far too little even before the
parcels post added the additional bur-
den. The railroads maintain that
weight is the proper measure of pay,
but that the mails should be weighed
every year and the payments made &C.
cording to each new weight. Now the
government weighs the mails only
once every four years, and any in
crease which comes along after that
the roads have to suffer for.

A SUCCESSORS event of la

A SUCCESSORS event of last
week should receive mention this Sun
day morning. 1t was important in
Missoula. A great singer came here
in concert tour. Missoula greeted her
cordially. An audience turned out
which was large enough to make of
the, concert a financial success and
that is, perhaps, the best way to es-
innate the interest of a community in
classical music. The Philharmonic
society managed the visit of Madame
White. The society deserves the COM
pliments which it is receiving; in this
n act alone, it gave sufficient war
ran for it's existence. The Philhar-
monte has Weakened new interest in
music in this city: it's w
concerts have been much appreciated
and this latest manifestation of it's ac-
tivity along good lines merits the very
expression of appreciation
which it has received.

PASSING EVENTS

Four days of Lent have passed. SO
have thirty-four of the days of the
Thirteenth assembly. Likewise, we
find ourselves upon the sunny side of
winter, with daylight's hours length
ening daily and spring almost within
sight. The remaining days of Lent
will be we'll employed if they are de-
voted to the purpose for which they
are set aside; this will be easy to do
for there are special religious services
in progress which will extend well along
into the Lenten season; these are in
addition to the regular devotions of
this period. Missoula has special
opportunity, this year, to be good in
Lent. AS to the legislature, it seems
useless to hope that it's members will
do much more good in the twenty-five
days which remain for their work than
has been done in the days which have
nassed into history, but it may not be
amiss To- express the longing that
they MAY do no more damage than has
already been done. If this turns out to
be the case, the sins Of the lawmakers
will be Of omission rather than of com
mission and, in this instance they will
not be SO bad. AS to winter. the week
brought a large and active installment
of it. 1t may seem out of reason to

VALE~NTINES-This year

VALENTINES-This year if is the
fashion to send your sweetheart flow
ers for her Valentine. remembrances.
1t is a pretty fashion and worth adopt
ing. Flowers are ideal messengers
when the message is laden with the
sentiment of Valentine day. The new
custom is prettier than the old, though
it has by no mean supplanted it en-
tirely. But flowers speak Of love and
love is the keynote of Valentine day.
SO, if you can, let bright blossoms
carry your word of remembrance on
Valentine day. If you can't get flow
ers, send something else. But be sure
you don't forget the date-send some
thing. The heart which contains no
spark of love beats DULY indeed. VAL
entine day is the lovers holiday. If
your heart does not respon to it's
call, you're out of the running, that's
all.
