Clerks Must Know
Many. Post Offices.


SO many off for each minute above the
standard it requires to throw a given
number Of cards. A clerk running from
Washington to Greensboro, N. c., will,
in the course of a few years, be
$500 post offices in Virginia, the 1900 In
the 1900 In Georgia, and those of three
or four other states as well. Then, too.
he must know in what package to tie
every letter addressed to a street number
in every one Of three or four important
cities like Washington, Baltimore, Phil
adelphia or New York.
Every time clerk throws" a card in
the wrong box in taking an examination
it shows that he would have missent a
letter If he had been throwing them
in the mail car pigeonholes. And that
the point of liberation in the railway mail
service. One can scarcely expect any
person to perform the same Identical act
10000 times without making more than
three mistakes. but when each time rep
resents a thinking process involving no
less than five different considerations.
besides the physical effort required to
perform It on fast moving train, 1t
will be realized to what high standards
Of proficiency the railway mail service
has attained: and 9.9e7 out Of ever,
10000 Is the average. showing that thou
sands OF clerks do much better than
this. Indeed, some OF them will correctly
pigeonhole 9,9S9 out Of every 10000.

mail service Of the United States is due

the mail that travels by rail must be
handled piece by piece by him. When a
person mails letter in Washington for
some one in st. Louis, he can depend upon
it that ninety-nine times out Of hun
dred his letter will reach the addressee
on the first delivery from the first train
into st. Louis from Washington after
the letter was mailed. The Washington
office makes up the st. Louis mail into
bags. These are turned over to the rail-
way mail service and go forward by the
train due to arrive at the earliest possible
moment. When they are on the last leg
of the journey-as from Indianapolis Oh

MOST IMPORTANT.

The Secretary of Agriculture has said: Il am
convinced that the biggest problem confronting US
is the rural. life problem, and yet it is one which in
its largest aspects has been ignored" Mr.. Hous-
ton made this remark in connection with the pro-
posed School Of Country Life in Nashville, Tennes-
see. This school is appropriately to bear the name
of Seaman A. Knapp, who did so much pioneer
work in connection with country life in the South.
and it is to be run in connection with the George
Peabody College for Teachers at Nashville. 1t will
represent the first attempt in America to build an
institution devoted exclusively to the study of ru-
raj life. Eighty-fve per cent of the people in the
South live in the country. This school will not on
Iy teach the principles of better farming with
which Mr.. Knapp's name is so closely associated,
but it will also teach such subjects as the best sys-
tenn of buying land and equipping farms, establish
ing farm credits, taxing agricultural property, CO.
operation of various kinds, better marketing. The
question of the best memorial to DR.. Knapp arose
Immediately after his death, two and one-half
years ago. A committee was organized with rep.
resentatives from every Southern state, and it GER
tainly reached the right decision in selecting a
school so profoundly needed, especially by the
South. The General Education Board offered to
rive $3.50, 600, the interest Of which is to go to run
hing expenses. The Memorial Committee under
ook to raise 100000 for the building and the
arm. The trustees of the Peabody Education
7und have given to the George Peabody College
for Teachers the sum of one million dollars, concur
rent with gifts of money by the State of Tennessee,
he County of Davidson. and the City of Nashville,
amounting to $3.50. 900, and sixteen acres of land,
with buildings and appurtenances, by the Univer-
sity Of Nashville. In closing the Peabody Trust
and founding the College for Teachers, the Pea
body fund offered to endow the college With the
additional sum of Five hundred thousand dollars,
provided that By November Lst, 1918, the College
should raise the further sum Of One million dollars
Of that amount, eight hundred thousand dollars
has been raised as we go to press, leaving two
hundred thousand dollars to be raised this month.
1t seems impossible that so much money
for such a noble purpose could be lost through
a failure to raise an additional two hundred
thousand dollars, and we have the utmost conf
dence that the money will be found. There is no
possible way in which it could be used to more pro-
found advantage. -Harper's Weekly.

DEMOCRACY STILL WINNING.

The democrats were successful everywhere in
the elections last week except that the Tammany
democracy in New York was defea' ed. Massachu-
sets and New Jersey elected democratic governors
and Maryland a democratic senator. AS Mitchell,
elected over the Tammany candidate mayor of
New York, is a democrat and an a%ppointee of
President Wilson his election may well be called a
democratic victory.
The Massachusetts election is a notable demo-
cratic victory since it is normally a strong republi-
can state. That the Wilson Administration is win
