The action of .the Senate Postoa,ee
Committee In agreeing to this amend
ment was forecasted when II attempted
to call the Postmaster General to ac-
count when he made the order raining
the parcel post weight limit to fifty
pounds- When that order went into ef-
feet howl went up from the railroads
and the express companies. The re-
sule was the Senate committee asked an
explanation of the order from the Post
master General. Mr.. Burleson said he
had acted to make the parcel post Of
more service and use to the people.
That ended the episode.
There was surprise expressed last
night when II became known that Jo-
seph L. Bristow. Senator from Kan
ns. who had been y strong advocate
OF most OF the progressive legislation
before Congress, had voted with the
committee 20 the amendment "gagEing'

Alabama. chairman of the committee
and Senator Bryan. OF Florida. reaction
ary. Democrats, were among the strong
advocates OF the amendment
Vote In Coasmfttee.
A member OF the committee who is
adVOcating tne afnenument SAID last nfght
the committee had been unanimous in
voting that the Postmaster General
should not increase the weight limit
without the consent Of Congress. Three
or four Senators voted against the propo-
sition that no changes of rates or zones
should be made without the consent OF
Congress. A third motion was made to
compel the Postmaster General to order
the use Of a special stamp for parcel
post business. That motion was lost by
one vote.
Senators who advocate the amendment
admit that its purpose Is to keep the
present parcel post rates where they
are for the present. They assert that
parcel post Is being carried at loss. but
how great. It Is impossible TO find out.
They say that the Postmaster General
changes the rates and the zones SO often
II Is impossible to ascertain this infor-
nation. By keeping the rates where
they are now. they say. the parcel post
can be tried out and the exact profit or
loss be ascertained. Then rates can oe
adjusted on a "scientific'' basis
II Is expected that the report will be
made to the Senate today by Senator
Rankhcad.

Taste. sight, and smell all have an in
fuence upon digestion. If one eats
something that does not taste good one
retards the work OF digestion because
the juices necessary to digest the thing
eaten will not flow in correct proper

On the other hand. good food will al
ways excite the taste through actual con-
tact with the food in the mouth or
through the sight or sense of smell, ,in-

digest it.

The disbandment of the Hopkins
willie and Clarksville teams is an ex
cellent illustration of the value OF
loyalty and the results of disloyalty
A baseball team today is one OF
the necessary assets of every town
which pretends to be such. The
town that cannot support baseball
team must necessarily be woefully
deficient in other enterprises, in
business, in the promotion of those
projects necessary to the upbuildine
OF community. For every flourish
ing American city today has its
baseball team and takes pride in 1t
And most of them stick to their
teams through thick and thin,
whether they are winning or losing
This Is loyalty. loyalty to a team
which is losing, the sort OF loyalt,
which attests to a city's thrift and
progress.
In fact today. baseball teams car
be taken as baromertic indication
OF a city's prosperity aud advance
ment. Where there is no team ther,
is no civic pride or spirit. 1t is
good sign that the citizens are no
pulling together" That is what
makes bod cities.
If the lack OF a baseball team Is
an indication of civic lethargy
what must be said OF the city whicl
2 allows team to go to pieces? Wha
can be expected from the future
such town. Perhaps decadence Il
commerce and population.
Cairo is numbered among the er
terprising cities which have base

same spirit which supports our team

The team this year is enjoying al

they're here today. And the sam

1t is not an accomplishment for
