A Game That Lasts.

For the man who has once had the
responsibility of coaching an eight oar
ed crew the task has an attraction
which can't be resisted Some one
asked me once why it is that most col
iege crew coaches make good chess
players. I knew that the person who
put the question didn't know much
about the rowing game, for producing
a successful eight cared crew requires
an amount of thinking which makes
chess seem like pure recreation in COM
parison. OF course it's different from
a chess problem in the fact that OPP
poents don't always start with the
same strength of forces. but this only
adds to the fascination of trying to
boat a winning combination.-Outing.

PRESIDENT WILSON VS.. CHINA
Defends His Position and Interests of
Our Government.

Washington.-President Wilson's re-
cent statement withdrawing the aid of
this government from what was popu-
larly known as "the six-power loan"
does not mean the retirement of the
United States from participation in
far eastern diplomacy.
The president Saturday talked about
China informally with some of his
callers, among them George Bronson
Rea, secretary of the commission en-
powered by the Chinese provisional
government to construct 10000 miles
of the trunk railways of China.
Mr.. Rea explained to the president
that without the aid of the United
States government American capital
had been enlisted in the railway enter
prise, but it was desirable to know
how far the United States would go
in protecting what Mr.. Rea termed
honorable contracts between Amer
lean business men and the Chinese
government" Independent Of political
connection.
The president asked Mr.. Rea to pre-
pare and submit to him a memoran-
dunn, and promised to study the ques-
ton very carefully.

NEW REGULATION FOR
PARCEL POST USES
CoIIect-On-DeIivery Features to b
Added to the Service About
I,IH

Features 10 BE
Added to the Service About
July I.
The collect-on-delivery feature will
be added to the parcel post depart
ment of the postal service July /,
1918. Under the approved regulations
a parcel bearing the required amount
of parcel postage stamps may be sent
anywhere in the United States and
the amount due from the purchaser
collected and RENTED by the post
Office department. The regulations
provide that the parcel must bear the
amount due from the addressee, and
the collection will be made provided
the amount is not in excess of n
hundred dollars. The fee will be ten
cents, to be affixed by the sender in
parcel post stamps. This also regis
tiers the parcel to an amount not in
excess of fifty dollars.
With the Inauguration of this feat
ure of the parcel post laws, there will
be a vast increase in the availability
of the uses of the parcel post as ap-
piled to the dealer. Then with the aid
of the telephone he can solicit his or
ders from distant customers, ship his
orders by post and collect for them
through the rural carrier.
In the past one of the greatest draw
backs to the use of the postal service
has been the necessity of extending
credit and collecting in advance; both
methods being, in many cases, unde-
sirable, if not prohibitive.
We would advise our readers to
carefully study their local distribut-
ing areas in the light of increasing
business by the use of the rural car
riers and be fully prepared to launch
a campaign of advertising along this
new line as soon as advantage can be
taken Of this way of selling for cash.
