STATE NORMAL
PARTMENT-MRS. BRADY
VISITS HURON.

Mrs. Anna Mae Brady, supervisor
of the kindergarten4primary depart
ment of the Normal was called to
Huron last Saturday to make several
addresses at the Beadle county Sun
day school convention on story tell
ing in the Sunday school. Newspa-
per write-ups from Huron give her
the highest praise in the art of han
ding the folk tale, fairy tale, and
Bible story in their relation to child
life. After each address, Mrs. Brady
told a story which, by the ~eagerness
with which they were received by her
audiences, proved conclusively that
the age of enjoyment of the story is
not confined to children alone, nor
to any long, long ago before books
were written. Mrs. Brady also add
dressed a county institute and a
mass meeting Sunday evening in the
M, K. church, the last two meetings
being in no way a part of the Sunday
school convention.
The meeting of the Y. w. c. A.
Wednesday night was well attended.
Among the features of the first part
of the meeting was a talk given by
Mrs. Bell. She told the story of the
famous hymns so familiar to all
how they came to be written, etc.
Among the writer's she especially
mentioned was Wesley, Crosby,
Matheson and Toplady. She men
toned the beautiful motive that
prompted Jennie Lind to be the
sweet singer that she was. In re
ferring to the Harry Lauder we all
know, either from having heard him
sing or in listening to the records oil
the victrola, she told how the tragft
death of his son on the battlefield
of France had prompted the great
singer to become a singer of a new
type of songs to cheer the soldiers as
only Harry Lauder can sing them
Several of the hymns were sung after
Mrs. Bell had given her talk relative
to them. This part of the program
was both entertaining and instruc
tive. Mrs. J.. w. Heston began hel
work in First Aid" lectures ant
demonstrations of the processes o.
bandaging the head, arms and legs
She will continue this war work
from now on and all teachers who
are expecting to go out this mex
year into the field of their chosen
profession should take advantage o.
this unusual opportunity of learning
what would be we'll for every n II
know. Mrs. Heston is full of hel
theme and only too glad to do hel
"bit" in this way as a patriotic duty
Miss Candis Nelson, director of thu
training school. has been called Il

MEXICO'S PETROLEUM POSSE
BILITIES.

A prominent official Of the depart
ment Of industry and commerce, in a
recent interview, declared that at
present not one-tenth of the petroleum
produced in Mexico is utilized-or
fs1s5er that could be produced by al
ready existing wells. There are many
wells that have capacity of ten,
twenty and thirty thousand barrels
daily, yet which are only utilized to
about ten per cent thereof. This is
due to lack Of means for conveying
the>n by pipe lines, ETC., to points Of
embarkation, as we'll as to lack of
shipping for carrying it to points Of
consumption in various portions of the
world. Many of the smaller compa-
MES have as a result been obliged to
offer their product for as little as ten,
twelve or fifteen cents per barrel,
when at the same time it was worth in
the American market from a dollar
per barrel upward. Various companies
with producing wells have preferred
to store their oil Or to shut off pro-
duction in the hope of better prices
which will follow better facilities for
shipment.

My dear Sir:
l thank you for your letter of April
29th, in reply to mine of the Oath.
l have understood that there has
been for years large deficit on Sec
ond class matter, but if / may be all
lowed to speak from the experience of
postmaster of second class office
for several years,-it is believed gen
orally, l think, that if because of the
great increase of rates on newspapers
and magazines from other states, by
the Periodical Postage Increase
Amendment to the War Revenue Bill"
(the subscription price of this matter
being raised in some instances to
twice the present price,, there will
certainly be a great falling off in the
subscriptions, which may result in no
real increase in revenue from the
change People are paying for this
matter now about all they feel they
can stand and are standing all they
cam take.
However, if the free-in-county mat
ter is charged for at regular rates
it would bring a greatly increased rev.
enue from a principal source of the
loss and in q perfectly legitimate way.
Why should newspapers and periodi-
Gals be handled free and distributed
or transported free by the Depart
ment in the county in which publish
ed? I have often thought it unreason-
abe that newspapers published in the
county should be handled by the P. O..
Department free and transported at
the expense of the P. 0. Department
Excepting Offices with free delivery
while only the local and states matter
was paid ror In Tarpon Springs the
free-in-county matter is about double
in weight of the paid second class
(periodical) matter and would if
charged for at same rates bring three
times the revenue, it now brings.
feel sure that there would be no OBJ
lection to this matter being placed on
the paid-for bass and now is a good
time to have this rule changed for
many newspapers have in the past put
up strong fight in defense of this
country free matter; the papers would
probably charge some extra for the
county circulation with no appreciate
effect on the number of subscribers.
Hence | claim that this change of
free-in-county second class matter to
the paid class, would meet with no OBJ
lection generally, while the method Of
increase by the zone system as pro-
posed on all newspapers and maya
zines would create a general feeling
of protest and resentment. Also while
the increase of revenue would not fig
ure so greatly,.it would be a real in
crease. while the result of the amend

TO FIX PROFITS
FOR RETAIL TRADE

The war industries board is about
to determine what is fair profit for
the retailer.
Moved by the flood of complaints of
profiteering, the board has under con-
sideration regulations to force the
stamping of wholesale prices on all
merchandise sold in the U. S. A. that
the consumer may check the blood
money makers individually. He will
know when he inspects any article of
merchandise, just how much profit the
retailer gets. This, members of the
board believe, will be sufficient to stop
most price-boosting.
