How Bishop Won Fame.

An amusing story of how he won
the title of being the champion cocoa
nut shier among the clergy is told by
the bishop Of Chelmsford. He In
formed a gathering Of c%lergymen, says
the London Chronicle, that when vicar
of Bethnal Green he took a party OF
w%orkingmen to Epping forest and was
there challenged to have a shy at the
cocoanuts. He accepted and, paying
his sixpence, was given seven balls.
Then something happened which
would not happen again were he to
live to be as old as Methuselah. With
those sever balls he knocked off seven
cocoanuts. He has lived on the repu.
tation of that feat ever since, and
when anyone asked him to have a CO.
coanut shy, he said, You go and
knock seven off with seven balls and
then l will speak to you"

cause of Recent Seizures.

The United States government has
suspended the parcel post convention
between the United States and the
Netherlands because the only steam
ship line between the two countries
has refused to carry parcel post pack
ages in the face of British seizures OF
American mail.
Service will be suspended. Postmaster
General Burleson said today, until
means are available for direct exchange
between the United States post office
and the Netherlands post office, and
postmasters. were ordered to refuse
packages addressed to Holland. Many
packages. it was said, are piled up in
New York. awaiting shipment.
Parcel post service Is arranged be-
tween nations by special treaties, and,
unlike first-class mail. is not covered
by an international postal agreement.
Great Britain claimed this gives 1t the
right to seize matter sent from the
United States to the Netherlands when
it is suspected that ultimate destina-
ton is ono Of the central powers.

TO USE COUPON RECEIPTS.
Parcel Post Insurance Plan Tried at
WASHINGTON Office.

The Postmaster General has designat-
ed the Washington. D. c., post office as
one of the offices for the experimental
use of coupon receipts for insured par
eel post packages in lieu of insurance
tags 1t is believed that the discontin-
uance of the present somewhat compli-
Gated method and the substitution of a
simpler and more expeditions one will
be favorably received by the public.
The tentative system Is purposed to ex-
pedite the sending of this class of mail.
The mailing of an insured parcel under
the new plan will involve little If any
more time than for an ordinary one.
1t is thought that the coupon receipt
system will be decidedly beneficial both
to the post Office and the public, and
will be particularly advantageous dur
ing the Easter, Christmas and other
seasons of heavy parcel post mailings.
1t is stated, however, that the plan is
only tentative, its permanency being
dependent upon the degree of success
attending it's operation.
Under the new arrangement no
change will be made in the method of
handling c. O. D. parcels. such parcels
requiring c. o. D. tags as at present.

Paint-A Test of Civic Ideals.

The following appeared in the edi-
torial columns of recent issue of the
Boston Monitor:
IF a study were to be made of the
many interpretations of the United
States and of sections thereof that
Europeans have made during the years
since colonial existence was first
deemed to deserve analysis, it would be
found, we believe. that not a few of
these touring critics based their COM
parative judgments of the civilization
attained by states and towns, SO far
as externals are indicative, on the state
of the houses. barns and outbuildings
they saw. Painted they at least pre-
supposed thrift. desire to postpone dis

the precise opposite. though. of course,

ternal appearances as to internal

What sensible. persistent use of paint

most any automobilist on his or her

Results Already Noticeable.

Results Of the campaign are already
to be noticed in every part of the city.
The cleanup forces are at work ev-
erywhere: rubbish and trash of all
kinds is being removed by the scores
of wagonloads. Lawns and back yards
are being raked. swept and cleaned,
and flower beds are being made every
where Painters are following the
cleanup forces, and by the time the
1916 campaign closes Washington may
be expected to be what it ought to be
and what every Washingtonan wants
it to be-the most beautiful, as well as
the cleanest and most heaithful capital
in the world.
