to alight from the train, where my
father and mother awaited my COM
ing With one bound l was folded in
their arms, and with that loving well
come the tediousness of the journey,
the pain of long absence and the
vearning to see them al melted away
into the supreme happiness of the
homecoming.
The visit at Louisville was most
pleasant. I visited all my friends and
relatives ana also went to the Fair,
which thought even better and more
interesting than in previous years.
Each day was more interesting and
| more full of pleasure than the pre-
cedng one. We also went to Lodiburg
and spent few days and it was GER
tainly happiness to meet old childhood
friends and view old familiar scenes.
After two weeks OF indescribahle
happiness and pleasure, which shall
ever be treasured in memories dear,
babe farewell tofriends and loved ones
in Kentucky and started back to the
great metropolis. My straining eyes
watched the loved ones at the station
until distance hid them from my view
and was again a traveller.
When we passed Frankfort, Ky,
looked from my window and saw on
beautiful sunny verdant slope the mag
nificent capitol building and it made
me proud to be a child Of Kentucky.
The limited trains between Louisville
and New York travel fast and it was
not long before Kentucky lay far he
hind US and new and strange scenes
were ever opening up before US.
We passed Washington, D. c., late
in the afternoon and as the train was
delayed there for while aightsd. l
caught glimpse of the White House
just as the sun was going down and it
was a beautiful sight bathed in the
golden afto rnoon sun.
The train was delayed two hours in
getting into New York, but finally |
arrived safe and sound at the Penn
sylvania station in New York, where
my husband was waiting with out
stretched arms to welcome me back
again.
The only regret that came to me was
that my dear husband could not &C
company me on the trip, but the press
Of business made it impossible for him
to get away.
In pleasant memories 60 back over
the journey: see again the welcoming
loved ones awaiting my home coming,
enjoy the old familiar scenes and re
trace my footsteps over the beaten
paths which lead homsward.
Before closing l wish to say that
Louisville has improved and is improv-
ing wonderfully Kentucky sounds
sweater to me than ever and the hos
pitality Of its people cannot be ex-
ceIled anywhere in this wide wide
world.
To all send greetings.

FROM NEW YORK TO DEAR OLD BRECKENRIDGE

To wanderer who through fate has
drifted from home it is indeed sub.
lime pleasure and privilege to return
again to the old familiar scenes and
the loved ones and to me came that
sweet Joy this summer after an alb
sence of over two years.
On Sunday, Sept. 6. at sos D. m.
babe adieu to my dear husband and
started on nv journey homeward over
the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad. In
an incredible short time the city was
left behind US and we emerged into the
beautiful open country where nature
in all its beauty and splendor unfolded
itself on every side. The fields of wav.
ing corn bowed to US as the train sped
onward and we could see beautiful
winding crystal rivers rushing on to
join the mighty sea. Then as the
afternoon waned to it's close and the
sun withdrew majestioally behind the
rich heavy drapery of the night clouds
a Sabbath reverence seemed to per-
wade the atmosphere. Night came
and, one could see no longer from the
wonder window of the moving train.
Finally retired to my berth to en-
deavor to gain repose, but what with
thinking Of the joy before me, the well
come awaiting me and the anxiety to
see owed ones. my eyes refused to close
and sleep was an impossibility that
night. I lay awake catching glimpses
of passing villages distinguishable In
the night only by the few stray twink
ling lights or watching with interest
when we arrived at some station
At last in all its splendor came the
dawn; the first gray light faded and
melted, away before the glorious gol-
den beams of sunrise as the sun rose
magnificently over the Virginia hills
and bathed the valleys and the rivers in
its beauty. We passed Clifton Forge
at sunrise.
Breakfast was called and repaired
to the dining car. To one who has
never travelled far 1t is hard to realize
the luxury of dining car. One sits at
a well-appointed table Of excellent
cuisine, while around them nature I'M
folds her wonder-book of ever-chang
ing scenery. The day passed for me
divided between the interest of the
wondrous scenery and the joyous antici.
patton Of nv homecoming. I must
confess that as the dusk fell and real
lied that was at last nearing home
my heart beat quicker and the jour
nsy began to grow monotonous, time
seeming an eternity.
Onward and ever onward sped the
train and at last we crossed the bor-
der line into dear old Kentucky, the
state that is still to me the graudest
state In all the union We travelled
parallel with the Ohio river. | could
distinguish each familiar landmark;
each light on the river seemed to blink
welcome to me and each turn of the
wheel seemed to sing to me "My Old
Kentucky Home. Putting and blowing
the engine at last brought its burden
of human freight into the Seventh st.
station at Louisville, and in my anxiety
to see my people was almost the first

GREAT INCREASE
IN THE BUSINESS

The parcel post business at the To-
cal postoffice being more than three
hundred per cent greater than il was
this time last year, Postmaster Eng
lish has called attention of shippers to
the danger of clogging the mails with
Christmas parcels before the holidays
are over. To avoid this, Postmaster
English says it will be necessary for
all who desire to mail by parcel post
to do so early. The parcels may be
marked mot to be opened until Christ

The business done at the local Of
flee was studied carefully several
weeks ago and at that time II was
learned that the outgoing parcels
were more numerous than the incom-
ing ones. The outgoing parcels were
300 per cent. more numerous than
those arriving.
This was taken as an indication by
the postal authorities that this city
is a distributing centre for parcels
and that the local merchants are max
ing use of the system in delivering
their goods.
Mr.. English is now mapping out a
plan whereby il is hoped that a force
large enough TO cope with the increas-
ing business will be stationed on duty
during the holidays.
