there will be two carriers who. be-
tween rounds. will assist in the
assortment of mail at the postofice.
| They will bring mail to the 535
homes in town, besides a number in
the mill village, making in all about
700 home which will be visited.
For mailing letters nine boxes
will be provided. These will be
placed at the most convenient points
about town. From seven of the
boxes mail will be collected twice
each day, while from the other two
on Main street it will be collected
four times daily.
In order to insure the best ser
vice from this new system, which
will be the greatest convenience to
our people, It has been recommend
ed that patrons place boxes on their
porches as receptacles for their
mail. In this way much time will
be saved, as the carrier will not
have to wait for some member of
the household to answer his ring
and receive what he has brought.
The "city fathers" may also fur
ther the good work and greatly ia
cilitate matters by having the homes
numbered.
We hope both the suggestions will
be adopted, as they should be If we
art to enjoy the best results of the
new service, which we understand
will be inaugurated here within the
next three or four weeks.

Shall Not Delay Settlement of
War-Is Turkey Seeking Direct
Intervention?
London, Jan. 20.-The Balkan
plenipotentiaries who are awaiting
the Turkish reply do not attempt to
conceal their impatience and firm
determination to prevent Turkey
from postponing settlement of the
war longer than a week. Mean
while, unofficial conversations have
begun among the allies regarding
their inter-Balkan delimitations.
DR.. Daneff, head of the Bulgarian
delegation, and the Greek premier,
M. Venezelos, were engrossed in
this task today. AS no agreement
yet has been reached concerning
Saloniki, the Greeks hope to have
no difficulty in retaining the town

INAUGURAL BALL
IS CALLED OFF
Washington Committee Decide to
Cut This Part of the Exercises-
Will Hold Public Reception.

Washington, Jan. 2O.-The time
honored inaugural ball, the climax
of the ceremonies incident to the in
auguration OF Presidents of the
United States will not be given thia
year. In compliance with Presi-
| dent-elect Wilson'S wishes, the In
augural committee, at special
meeting today unanimously decided
to eliminate it.
The committee also decided a
public reception at the Capitol or
elsewhere suggested by Mr.. Wilson
as substitute for the ball was not
within its jurisdiction and II one is
held Congress must make necessary
arrangements for it. The commit
tee said the proposed program
would be merely a governmental
function, under the control OF the
joint congressional inaugural COM
mittee. In a resolution adopted,
however, the committee announced
that it would cooperate in every
way possible with all arrangements
for the successful inauguration of
the President-elect.
The members OF the Joint con-
gressional committee OF the inaugu-
ration are Senators Crane, of Mas
sachusetts; Bacon, of Georgia, and
| Overman, of North Carolina, and
Representatives Mckinley, of Illi-
nois; Rucker, of Missouri, and Gar
rett, of Tennessee. Senator Crane
declined today to express an opinion
regarding the proposed reception,
stating that the matter had not been
officially placed before the commit
tee. The suggested reception met
with hearty approval OF Representa-
tive Mckinley.
Mr.. Wilson'S wish, in the event of
there being a public reception March
4, is that Mrs. Wilson and the
Misses Wilson should not be expect
ed to attend. This information was
conveyed to the inaugural commit
tee having in charge the inaugural
| ceremonies.

sickly, puny child, dressed always in

He was also "just cleaned up" when

came to regard the child as a mere

through the usual course of governess,
kindergarten, boarding school and tu-

child. He didn't see that the name
was an incongruity, that Reginald
looked like his father, and that Regi-

the physical prowess and unlimited
nerve of Reginald Houlihan; he still

white collars, big ties and long, curly

sums in club dues, tailor bills and au-

the boy to his office and, hardly look

harshly on his extravaganza. The
young man listened respectfully and
went out without a word. The bills
