THRIFT SUNDAY TO Be
OBSERVED next SUNDAY
Ministers Over the State VIII Be Ask.
ed to Preach Special Sermons to
Urge Thrift Among the
People.

Thrift Sunday is to be observed
throughout the country on June 22d.
On this date every minister in Ken
lucky will be asked to deliver their
Sunday sermon on Thrift and to read
the message Of Secretary of Treasury
Carter Glass to their people on War
Savings and Thrift.
The project has been launched by
the Savings Division, War Loan Or
ganization of the Treasury Depart
ment which has started nation wide
movement to conserve the war taught
habits of thrift which has met with
the hearty approval from many inter-
ests and organizations.
Every man, woman and child in the
United States will be asked to consid-
er and discuss on Thrift Sunday the
present necessity for economy and its
permanent value to personal commun-
ity and national prosperity.
Thrift and savings are the high
ways to freedom" says State Director
James B. Brown. "That safe and pro-
fitable investment may be within
reach of everyone the Treasury De-
partment is continuing the sale of
thrift and War Savings Stamps. The
latter costing a little over four per
cent. compounded quarterly is one of
the very best rates for savings" de-
clares Mr.. Brown.
war Savings Stamps are made easy
to acquire Thrift Stamps cost but
quarter each and sixteen of these plus
q few cents additional may be ex-
changed for an interest bearing War
Savings Stamp"
The slogan of the Savings Division
IL Save First, Spend Afterwards.
we hope to have every minister In
Kentucky preach on thrift on June 22d
on the meaning and value OF intelli-
gent thrift to his congregation and
suggest plans for community and in
dIvidual thrift in addition to encour-
aging organizations TO enroll as gov
eminent savings societies" said the
State Director.

will be created by this service.
FOR THE PUBLIC:

A new service almost as speedy as
a telegram costing but little more than
"a Special Delivery letter, giving con-
venience, speed, low cost and gener-
al efficiency.
Example: so word telegram, New
York to Chicago 50.
so words by Electric Mail, New York
to Chicago, 25c.
The one rate to all points plan
should prove very desirable feature
to many business men. The matter
will be presented at the next meeting
of the Board of Directors of the Cham
Der of Commerce.

ASKED TO ENDORSE
THE ELECTRIC MAIL
IDEA FOR NATION
Chamber Of Commerce Is Called Upon
to Put 0. X. on Plan to Hasten
Mail Messages.

The Maysville Chamber of Com
MERGE has been invited to endorse to
our Congressman, "the Electric Mail
and urge him to give his endorsement
to the plan, to the Post Master Cen
eral.
The business of the country is now
seriously hampered by an utterly in
adequate Post Office Service, not due
to lack of efficiency but to demands
with which even increased equipment
and efficiency could not keep up. A
similar condition in England required
three years to get order out of chaos.
A new Post Office service is. now
available which, If adopted by the au-
thorities will largely relieve this con-
dition. 1t is the Electric Mail. This
service handled the letter or card at
both ends by the Post Office just as
letters and cards are handled now
but the contents are transmitted by
wire between terminal Post Offices
The Electric Mail is the last word in
Post Office service, as practically all
other means of transmission but the
wire are now in use.
How It Works
Write a letter, put it in an envelope
seal it, write Electric Mail" on the
outside and affix 25 cents in postage
stamps for the first so words or less
with 5 cents for each additional 10
words or less.
Get the letter to the Post Office just
as you would any other letter using
the Rural Delivery mail box, the street
corner box or the mail chute in your
building. If you wish to save time
send it directly to the Post Office.
In the Post Office the stamps are
cancelled the contents of the letter
wired to the distant city. there type
written, put in an envelope, sealed
properly addressed, and delivered by
carrier or put in Post Office box or
General Delivery as is any other let
ter.
II ten words will serve your need
ten words on a card and attach 10
cents in postage stamps-all else same
as for letter. 10 cents additional Sc
cures special delivery for either letter
or card.
This service will mean that you and
your corresp ondent, hundreds or even
thousands of miles apart can ex-
change 3 or 4 more letters or cards
during the business hours Of a single
day as train time between cities, bag
cling. hauling, etc., are all eliminated.
Post Office Savings
II adopted the Electric Mail while
adding to Post Office revenues will
lessen Post Office work as it will do
away with the trouble and expense OF
putting mail into bags and taking 1t
out of bags, hauling bags between the
Post Office and railroad and the cost
of transportation. Also carrier SER
vice at one or both ends will be saved
as a large proportion Of the letters
will be sent directly to the Post Office
and many at the receiving end placed
In Post Office boxes or in General De-
livery.

FOR THE POST OFFICE:
Ease and nominal expense OF in

BRITISH TITLES.

! The tender spot in British politi-
cal life today is the dispensation OF
| titles. These are awarded, of course
by the king, but on the nomina.
ton Of the prime minister, and the
criticism of reformers is that titles
have been given for a long tine and
by various prime ministers for pure
ly party services and practically
bought by contributions to party
! funds.
The house Of lords has a peculiar
interest in this matter because the
old, noble families are jealous of
having their caste lowered by the
addition of the newly rich, and
purely rich TO the orders of no.
bility.
The question was threshed out
last year and there was general
understanding that thereafter when
honors were announced the reason
for their bestowal would be pub
lished. This has been done in form
but, it is alleged, not in substance,
because several much-criticized hon
ors in the last list were described
as "for public services" which might
mean almost anything.
The new National party, which
has few members in the house of
commons, has taken up the ques-
ton. The chairman, General Page
Croft, has written TO the newspa-
pers proposing to prove before any
judicial committee that since 1910
one member of parliament has re-
jected an offer of title in return
Tor cash payment to party funds,
and that the father of a member
f., of the house Of commons was Of
fered baronetcy for e25 900.
He charged also that member Of
parliament who was created peer
after the beginning of the war sub
scribed shortly afterward very
large sum of money to a newspaper
that supports the premier.
He mentions also instances in
which he says titles were granted TO
| a politician of so notorious a char
acter as to be regarded as unfit to
be candidate for parliament, to
another politician regarded as un-
scrupulous, and 70 third man
previously involved in a notorious
social scandal"
General Page Croft offered to
prove all his charges.
