OF one Of Postmaster ,Burleson's rur-

there having been changed to make

ing Kamrar without carrier SER
vice and the patrons have refused to
be served by carriers from other
towns. preferring to call at the VIII
lage Office for their mail.
The people Of that section, partic-
u!arly at Kamrar, are up in arms ov-
er the changes and are loud in their
criticism of the methods used by the
department. So far the effect of the
changes over In the south part Of the
county have not been made known
but they can not help but work an
injustice upon the patrons of the ter
ritory served, as carriers are to be
removed and the routes served
materially. At Ames one
carrier is to be removed also, thus
leaving that place with three routes
instead of four, as heretofore. Neva-
da will retain her five routes, but two
Of them have been materially length
ened by the change and 1t is prob
able that Colo will lose route un-
der the change.

Rural Teachers Reading circle,
through the cooperation of the Ma
tional Education association and
State departments of public instruc-
tion. Fl. v. Foght, specialist in rural
school practice, is directing the work
from the Bureau of Education.
Branches have been organized in "a
states. giving an opportunity to $780,
900 rural school teachers to have
q u.
part in this work.
A two years reading course of
non-professional books of culture

and story and a half in height. It
will contain two rooms, one for work

In Municipal Judges Court.

Oscar Everts, tiler, whose home
address is wherever he hangs his
hat, was up in Justice fuckers court
this morning to answer to the charge
of drunkenness. He was fined $15.35
with the sound admonition that the
next time the oftense is repeated.
he would receive just double that
amount. Everts thought the fine ex-
horbitant and excessive, entirely too
much for a mere social glass, and
was inclined to murmur, but the
Judge was obdurate and the offender
paid his fine.
