Rural Service and Parcel Post

/ ize their rural patrons through the
carriers end receive in return by
mail the names of those who de-
sired TO be included in lists furnish
ed to the town patrons
1t would appear that there is a
great field in this connection for
the fourth-class postmasters to in
crease parcel post business, and con-
sequently the cancellations of their
offices. This in turn would un-
doubtedly benefit the carriers
through an increased volume of
business
AT present time the main oppor-
tunity for the carriers is to become
proficient in the rules and regula-
lions affecting parcel post business.
The carriers in the city delivery
service are greatly aided in this mat
ter by manual of regulations
which has been issued by the De-
partment, and | have now caused D
be prepared pamphlet of inquiries
based on the manual, which will be
used in conducting examinations at
city delivery postoffices to test the
familiarity of clerks and city car
riers with the service.
The work of examination will
proceed by sections of the country
and the results will be filed at
Washington. 1t is probable that this
system of stimulating efficiency
might be adopted to good advantage
in connection with the rural carrier
service.
Il would say to rural carriers, as
we'll as to postal employees. do your
best, men, to develop parcel post
but aways within the meaning and
intent of the Postal Laws and Regu-
lations. r. F. ID. News

British Territories
Acquit Themselves
With Great Credit
(By Associated Press. J

London, May . The more he has
seen of the territorials, says Sir
John French in his Neuve Chapelle
dispatch, the more he has been i'm
pressed with their value. Sir
Johns words, They acquitted
themselves with the utmost credit,
have taken all of the wind out of
the campaign to fix conscription on
Great Britain.
The British territorial system is
| practically the same as the national
guard of the United States, without
the political weakness of the Ameri-
can. So far as organization service
and equipment go, the system of the
two countries are identical. The
men enlist for same period and in
peace times drill for about the same
number of hours weekly and spend
the same leneth of time in annual
manoeuvres. They wear almost the
same uniform. But instead of suf.
fering from state politics, as in
America, the British service is d.
rectly under the war department,
which appoints the colonel in com?
M3nd. The colonel, in turn, passes
on the qualifications of the officers,
who receive commissions from the
war office. This method of officer
ing the territorials is much more
effective both as to discipline and
efficiency than the American method
of letting the men elect their own
officers on the basis of personal
popularity instead of professional
fitness.
Territorials in time of peace en-
list for home service only. But by
the simple process of volunteering
for foreign service. they become
volunteers without the elaborate
process of transferring accounts
from state to federal government as
in vogue in the United States. which
involved vast amount of clerical
work and red tape.
In the present war, over so per i
cent of the territorials are known
to have volunteered and of these
the larger part are already serving
in France or Egypt. They enlist
under the general volunteer act for
three years or the end of the year
One advantage of the territorial
army over the regulars lies in the
various kinds of skilled men in the
ranks, who with little trainine can
turn their trades or professions to
The use of war. The territorial sup
,iy of doctors has been a needed
help.

know that the territorial force has s
proved more attractive to recruits {

Vote Down
Rehearing On
Davis Bill

Tallahassee, May 5-The house
steam roller was in finest working
order and the Dancy motion to re-
consider the Davis bill, House Bill
No. 222, was gently, but effectively
laid on the table by the generous
vote of AZ to II.
Mr.. Martin. of IIillsborough, made
the motion and Mr.. Dancy was Civ
en- five minutes to speak; later,
however, when he showed the house
that last Thursday it had allowed
the gentleman from st. Lucie, seven
teen minutes to tell what the effect
on his county would be if certain
laws were passed, and he (Dancy)
was being given but five minutes in
which to show wherein the Davis
bill would affect his constituents of
the value of more than a million
dollars, force bankruptcy after a
summer of depression owing to
world wars. the time was extended
to ten minutes.
Mr.. Dancy refused to talk longer
than his original allotted time; and
Mr.. Harrison Of Duval spoke part
OF the ten minutes, showing the eff
feet on Duval county.
Both the Duval representatives
made excellent arguments, and
neither claimed desire for more than
merely time for their constituents to
satisfactorily dispose of their prop
erty involved under the act, and
both asked for extension of time to
January 1.
The house, on motion of Mr.. Pen
ney of st. Lucie, tabled the motion
o reconsider, with no remarks from
my but the Duval representatives
made, and then Immediately order
ed the bill certified to the senate.
