GRANDMOTHER knew
There Was Nothing So Good for
Congestion and Colds
as Mustard

But the old-fashioned mustard plaster
burned and blistered while it acted. You
can now get the relief and help that
mustard plasters gave, without the plas-
ter and without the blister.
MUSTEROLE does it. II is a clean,
white ointment. made with oil Of mus
tard. It is scientifically prepared, so
that it works wonders and yet does not
blister the tenderest skin.
Just massage MUSTEROLE in with
the fnger-tips gently. See how quickly
it brings relef--how speedily the pain
disappears
And there is nothing like MUSTER
OLE for Sore Throat, Bronchitis, Ton
silitis. Group. Stiff Neck, Asthma, Neu-
ralgia, Headache, Congestion, Pleurisy,

Prof. Sturgis Reappointed

The Circuit Court room here was
crowded Tuesday with patrons of the
Hyattsville grade school, the object of
the gathering being to induce Prince
Georges County Board of Education
to reappoint Prof. S. Sturgis principal
of the school.
Receiving information that the board
did not propose to reappoint Professor
Sturgis, Mayor John e. Holden called
a mass-meeting of the citizens Satur
day, at which committee was appoint
ed to protest to the board. About 12O
school patrons accompanied the COM
mittee to Upper Marlboro Tuesday.
President George E. McCeney and
Virgil Lawrence were present at the
meeting, Bryce Bowie, the third mem
Der. being absent on his vacation.
President McCeney made statement
giving the boards reasons for not reap
pointing Prof. Sturgis. He was foi-
lowed by Charles W. Clagett, mem
Der of the council of Hyattsville, who
spoke of Prof. Sturgis' work in building
10 the school. W. S. Ryan and j. L.
McBrien, of the bureau of education,
also spoke in Prof Sturgis' behalf.
The board then announced that Prof.
Sturgis would be reappointed at 9
salary of $500 year, reduction OF
500 from last year. The citizens
agreed to pay him the other 800.

Economies in Mail Equipment

The people who see mail bags loaded
on postal cars from the mail wagons of
the Government, or see then thrown
off at the station in the cities, can
form no idea of the immensely of this
branch of the public service.
At the beginning of this administra-
ton an inventory was taken to learn
what equipment for railway postal
transportation the government had on
hand. 1t was discovered that the
grand total of such property was
3,549, 489 pieces, of which 46S. S46 were
mail pouches, 2,592,479 were sacks, and
488, 1854 were mail locks. Since this in
ventory was made the growth of the
service required the purchase of over
one million and half mail bags to
meet the steadily increasing demand.
In the summer of 1918, the Depart
ment was paying $1.44 for its ordinary
mail pouches. This price was deemed
too high, and experts were set to work
to devise something which would be of
equal capacity, equal durability, at a
less cost. The result was that pouch
was designed which the Department
contracted for and purchased for less
than 60 cents each, and this pouch has
been produced in large quantities and
is replacing those formerly under con-
tract. Experts were also placed on the
proposition of designing cheaper but
equally effective pouch for the ex-
change of mails by moving trains.
The Department was then paying 81. 70
for these catcher pouches. Within
short time pouch was evolved, design
ed on scientific principles, which is CIV
lag far better service and at greatly
reduced cost, viz, 80 cents each.
The saving in this production OF
equipment will amount to very large
sum, for there have been over $50, 200
of these new style bags placed in the
service within the last two years at a
reduction of fifty per centum, and this
economy will of course continue and
grow in amount as the further demand
for supply is met.
