Gathered in Fargo Today

The next zone is approximately one
hundred and fifty miles from the CEN
ter but in reality is only 1873 or 140
miles and the same Is true of all other
zones, but the department has not been
unfair to the patrons in cutting down
the radius of the zone because Of the
additional territory which is included
in consequence of the rule that all
units intersected by a zone go at a
lesser rate.
Took Much Thought.
AS one studies the parcel post law
and the regulations governing the
same he becomes most thoroughly con-
WINGED of the great amount Of thought
expended upon the plan by General
Hitchcock, the postmaster general, and
his able assistants.
One little thing in addition to what
I have just spoken of will give you an
insight into this fact. From the eX-
| treme northern boundary of the Unit
ed States to the small islands off
the coast of Florida in the vicinity
Of Key West is just 25 degrees, and
therefore this division into one
! quarter of a degree makes so zones
north and south fn this country.
The lowest numbered zine is No. 9,
taking in some islands off the coast
| of New Brunswick, belonging to the
| state of Maine, and the highest mum
bered zone is off the western coast
Of the state Of Washington.
Little Confusion Caused.
When congress first passed this law
| postmasters as we'll as business men
felt hat there would be great con-
fusion in putting zone rates into ef-
feet all over the country, but SO care

dle-man: it has a tendency to make
all trade direct from producer to the
consumer. This will mean a decided
readJustment of conditions. Look the
situation squarely in the face and keep
actively engaged in seeing that you are
not one Of those crowded outo of the
swim by the condition of the times.
Somfle years ago when the patent
medicine law was passed The Forum
had $500 of advertising contracts
cancelled July 1, when the law went
into effect. The Forum did not COM
plain, but with hard work succeeded
in getting other foreign advertising,
like corsets. shoes, tobacco and auto
mobile ads to more than make UP the
difference.
1t it were not for the rates of the
parcel post being in zones the condi-
ton would be more difficult than you
now have to face. The parcel post is
a good thing for the people at large.
1t can be made a good thing for you If
you study it carefully and avail your
selves of every chance 1t gives you,
but if you ignore it-this new form Of
transportation win become a jugger-

or the rates per pound for the various
distances.
The units, however, are one-fourth of
a degree OF latitude and longitude
which makes them approximately
thirty miles square. The unit in which
Fargo is located is 3005 and the en-
ter OF this unit is about four miles east
Of Fargo. The center of every unit in
this country Is a pivot around which
the zones for every postOffice in that
unit are drawn and wherever a zone
.intersects a unit every ~postofice in
that unit is in the smaller zone in
place Of part in the larger and part in
the smaller.
The law says that the first Zone shall
have a mean radial distance of approx
imatefy fifty miles from the center OF
any given unit of area. You will no.
'1tice that the term approximately fifty
miles is used, but the department has
taken forty-two miles as the distance,
making the first zone eighty-four miles
across the center.
In consequence of cutting into other
units and embracing them in the
smaller zone. there are many postoffices
seyenty-ffve miles from Fargo which
are within the first zone because that
unit is fntersected by this radius.
Therefore Notwithstanding the fact that
forty-two miles is used in place Of
fifty there is much more territory en-
brAced in the first zone than If 1t simp-
lily took in a radius Of fifty miles. This
will explain some Of the peculiarities
of the law and why some postmasters
= and patrons as we'll have confused the
unit with the zone.

ly in the parIor waiting for the mother
to come down and act as chaperon as
is customary in England. While they
were waiting the young woman's nose
started to bleed and the young man
who remembered having heard that a
piece of cold metal placed at the back
of the neck would stop the trouble,
looked around the room for a piece of
cold metal. He spied the key Of the
door and in his embarrassment locked
the door in getting the key out. He
applied the key to the young woman's
neck and just at that the
mother came down, and finding the
door locked demanded entrance. In
his excitement the young man drop
ped the key down the young woman's
back and the question then was, What
would you do If you were the young
man? and the governor told the
audience that he thought the answer
certainly was. get the key at any
cost.
The conditions in this country are
changing and the parcel post has come
to stay. Its scope will be enlarged in
many ways 1t viii reduce the present
high cost of living in many respects
Our pure food laws have had a de-
clded tendency to increase the cost OF
the household table, but who would
go back to the old system of not know
ing what you bought. You can still
get the adulterated food at low prices
IL you want it-but the father does
not want it for his own family.
Some years g a man at work on
the streets of Fargo told me that when
DR.. Ladd showed him how sausages
were adulterated and an effort was
undertaken to have his rulings made
aborttve by not providing funds for his
defense, this Ia said: 81 have $20(

He felt that the butcher who had sole
him "doctored" sausage to place be.

dealer had no idea he was iniurinl

the human system OF the preservative:

were doing the same. but now tn.
butcher and customer both are agreeG

naut which will crush out your bust
ness opportunities and that is why I
urge every one Of of you to look the
situation squarely in the face and make
it your servant instead of allowing 1t
to become your master.
Any postmaster will furnish you free
a full copy OF the law and the rules and
regulations framed to carry 1t into eff
feet, and by sending a postofice order
for 70 cents to the chief clerk OF the
postoffice department at Washington,
ID. c., you can get a parcel post guide
which contains the name of every
postofice in this country and also a
copy of the one map printed for your
own p~ostoflce with every unit and zone
therein, and you will thus be able to
post yourself concerning the manner In
which you can avail yourself OF it's
privileges.
AS I said before, the parcel post has
come to stay and it can be made OF
value to you and to your customers
and obtain new patrons for you IL you
will. only be vigilant. The result rests
with you, individually and collectively.

Man Arrested For
Joke on Monkeys at
The Zoo Flees Trial

c. J. Hawse, a travelling salesman
who was spending Sunday in Atlanta,
rode out to Grant Park and sought to
entertain himself by teaching the
monkeys in the zoo to smoke cigar
cites.
He threw seevral lighted cigarettes
into the big cage, and the monkeys,
probably mistaking them for eIongat-
ed peanuts, started scramble Then
began a riot of chatter and screeches.
The terrified monkeys stampeded in
wild disorder, while Hawse and the
crowd huwled
When the case was called, however,
he failed to answer. Inquiry at the
hotel where he had been stopping
brought the information that ne had
business elsewhere, had paid his bill
and gone. He was marked in con
tempt of court.
Policemen Louis Whitley and
Greer made a case of disorderly con-
duct against Hawse for tormenting
the monkeys, and cited him to APP
pear before Recorder Broyles Monday
morning.

JUDGE Roam NOT

Should the motion for a new trial
in the Frank case be pending at that
time, following d possible postpone
ment on October 4, it may be heard
by any one of the four Superior
Court judges-Judge Pendleton, Judge
Ellis, Judge Bell or Judge Hill.
The rumor that Judge Hill would
hear the motion in view of the fact
that he is exchanging places with
Judge Roam who goes to the Court
Of Appeals. was set at rest following
authoritative information that the
four judges of the Superior Court

down for the first time in his cell in

Naughton gave way to his feelings.
Bitterly denouncing his personal

Governor Slaton would pardon him,

commended the granting of a full par
