Atlanta Feb. 11.-Said to have bene

Macy, pretty 19-year-old girl en-

of wood alcohol.
She was rushed from the hotel to A

her life. She spent yesterday after

back with a gay crowd, apparently in
the best of humor.
In the night she phoned down to the

A GAIN OR A LOSS ?

creditable showing of the results of
his administration of the Post Office
Department. The wiping out OF a
deficit and the substitution of sur
plus are always gratifying exhibits Of
progress. And it is particularly
gratifying to note how the Postal
Savings Bank has been growing n
popular favor. For the fiscal year last
reported it made a gratifying growth,
which almost remunerated the gov
eminent for the cost of maintaining
the machinery needed to operate it.
The secretary is confident that the
past and present rate of growth VII
not only be maintained but increased
to a point where the resulting revenue
will make this branch of the depart
ment's work self-sustaining.
1t is hardly consonant with this
bright review and prospectus to find,
in the secretary's report a renewal
of his former recommendation TO
double the postage on second-class
mail. To what other influence SO
much as to that of newspapers can
the secretary attribute the continuing
growth of patronage, by the people,
of the Postal Savings Banks? Can ne
believe that, without the widespread
publicity which newspapers have CIV
en- this new enterprise, without their
reports of its extension, without their
full explanation of it's system of work
and the nature of it's security, and
without their editorial urging of such
as have been depositors in chimney
corners and holes in the ground, to
trust the government and get paid for
doing so, the growth in the volume IF
deposits could have been as great and
as steady as it has been? What other
or better system of advertising it's
banks has the department found than
the one which has cost it nothing?
Doubling the postage on newspapers
would, beyond a doubt, reduce their
number and restrict the circulation of
such as could stand the increase.
Such a reduction would be reduction
in the advertising space the Post OF
fee Department now fills without pay
ing for line of space. The effect of
such a reduction would be to delay
the institution of l cent postage on
first class mail and to retard develop
ment of the parcel post, which Mr..
Hitchcock insists should be enlarged
on the lines of reducing the postage
and increasing the weight of the
packages. These are worthy ends,
but he would now have no parcel post
worth speaking of but for the coop
GRAFTON of the newspapers he is pro-
posing to mulct. Without such con-
tinuing cooperation there is a large
probability that the worthy aims the
retiring postmaster general has in
view can not be served without put
ting the entire department, in all of
its branches, back on the plane where
| it was before the great development
of newspapers through the second
class mail privilege when making ex-
penses was not even dreamed of, and
when the annual deficit ran into mil
lions.

Let others write of battles fought,
OF bloody, CHASTITY fields.
Where honor greets the man who
wins,
And death the man who yields;
But will write of him who fights
And vanquishes his sins,
Who struggles on through weary
years
Against himself, and wins.
He is hero, staunch and brave,
Who fights an unseen foe,
And puts at last beneath his feet
Who stands erect manhoods might
Undaunted, undismayed,-
The bravest man who drew a sword
In foray or in raid.
1t calls for something more than
Drawn
Or muscle to o'ercome
An enemy who marches not
With banner, plume or drum
A foe forever lurking nigh,
With silent, stealthy tread,
Forever near your board by day,
At night beside your bed.
All honor, then, to that brave heart,
Though poor or rich he be,
Who struggles with his baser part
Who conquers and is free!
He may not wear hero's crown,
Or fill hero's grave;
But truth will place his name among
The bravest of the brave.
