Paris, May 3o.-The day of secret
councils is past because the people are

mes. The private councils of states
men, he added, will no longer deter
minte the destinies Of nations.
An earnest defense Of the league of
nations was prominent note of the
presidents address. He said he look
ed forward to the time when a man
who failed to support the league
would be as ashamed as the man who
opposed the union of the states after
the Civil war.

incident In the life OF its author, VIII

writer In the Peoples Home Journal.
Cowper. a deeply religious man. was

hired a cab to take him to the river,
but a dense fog so confused the cab
man that. after driving about for an

that he was lost. Cowper. alighting

First Penny Postage Trial
lnaugurated in England In
1840-Long After in Canada

The first trial of cheap postage was
the system OF penny postage inaugu-
rated In England January 10. 1910.
The idea that letters could be for
warded TO any part OF England and
delivered for only a penny seemed
absurd TO most Englishmen. and they
predicted speedy failure for the prof.
sct. IL Is unnecessary 10 point out
that they proved TO be poor prophets,
observes a writer In the New York
World.
On this side OF the Atlantic the
much greater distances seemed 10 pre-
clude the adoption Of any such meas
ure as a low. fiat rate for letters. Al
the time Great Britain adopted penny
postage, the rates in the United States
were: For 80 miles and under. g
cents: 80 TO 60 miles. 5 cents. Cd TO
100 miles, 10 cents, and over 100
miles a prOpOrtionate increase. SO that
letter dispatched a distance of $50
miles cost - cents
With the adoption OF Rowland Hiirs
penny postage system. England also
adopted his suggestion that the diff
culties attending prepayment Of post
age might be overcome by using n
bit of paper large enough to bear the
stamp. and covering the back with a
glutinous wash. which by applying a
little moisture. might be attached TO
the back of the letter" Thus the
postage stamp was born. and there
came into existence those little scraps
of paper which are now collected by
millions OF men and boys the world
over. and some OF which. because OF
their rarity. are worth thousands of
dollars.
An approach 10 the penny postage
OF Great Britain was made In 1851.
when Scent postage was adopted In
the United States. Adhesive postage
stamps had previously been introduced
on this side OF the Atlantic In 1s47
Later postage was reduced TO 2 cents
In the United States In 1888. but II
was not until some years later that
Canada followed the example OF her
mother country by instituting the
penny postage

THE UNKNOWN DEAD

They loved the English hedgerows
And scented English lanes:
They loved the sunlight on their downs
And the soft English rains.
And now-they sleep In Flanders
or where the sad Marne flows.
A bleak white cross above their heads:
Their names. All. no one knows.
They loved the life OF London.
With lights that cleaned like pearla
And theaters and taverns
And rosy English girls
Their youth was n brief glory
That sped too swiftly BIZ. ~
They left their ses-,oss ard cricket =
And came out hereto die =
And some were shining poets.
And some were simple boys
Who loved the Surrey fields and all
Substantial English joys
From Efon and from oxford.
From many an English town.
They came 20 save a world from shame
And lay their young lives down
In some celestial garden
Perhaps they sit today
And laugh as once they used 20 laugh,
Play they used to play
It's we who weep for young lads gonss
But they-they are not dead.
Though simple crosses stand above
Each brave young English head
They loved. and are contented
On windy wastes to sleep.
Yet when the English daisies
Begin 20 smile and creep.
Pluck them and take them over
To many a lonely grave:
For they loved English flowers
These young. and bright. and brave

Wants an Explanation

The l.. e. n. railroad refused
the Winchester Methodist Sun
day School an excursion to Nat
ural Bridge, stating that no ex.
cursion would be run there this
year. The L. d N. later granted
the Winchester Christian church
Sunday School an excursion, such
as had been denied the Metho.
dists. This has provoked Geo.
E. Tomlinson, superintendent OF
the Methodist school, to go after
the L. d N. officials for an expla.
nation, which will be watched
for with great interest.

Ogden and T. B. Ware, and start
ed work on this road "Wednesday
morning. The deal for the two
places calls for about $500 and
must be raised by the people as the
Judge fatty refuses to take any OF
the county funds to pay right of
way for the new roads. The right :
Of way for the road on the first
survey has all been secured and
signed up, but some changes have
been made which calls for addition
al damages. Those persons inter :
ested in the road are gladly re-
spending with the necessary cash
to adjust this right of way.

Bridge a Go

The Fiscal Court in session at
Stanton Saturday agreed with a
representative of the bridge sub
scription committee that the
Court would pay half the cost of
the bridge at the old Forge site.
The county will make contract
for the bridge soon as the regu.
lar formality of the law can be
complied with. While the coun.
ty assumes half the cost of this
bridge, it will get as much state
aid money next year as it will
be out tins year, so in reality the
bridge will cost the county moth
ing, and the people who put up
the other half can get their mon
ey's worth back the first year af,
ter it is built.
