NO CHILDREN BY POST.

A CHILD, according to Assistant Postmaster
"A General Rooms, is not a. harmless i've
animal.
~ Those who have had experience with other peo-
PIES children will endorse the sentiment So long
as neighbors child is alive, he she, or II, is not
harmless. lively youngster is endowed with I'M
limited ability to do damage to all and smdry
within reach.
" These remarks, of course do not apply to dill
'dren in the family II is only other peoples chill
dren who are dangerous.
The ruling was made in forbiddng acceptance
Of children as parcel post. Any other ruling would
have been rather too good to be true
As a novelty such package would be acceptable
to a postman. As regular thing It would be in
tolerable. Uncle Sam would soon be no more
than nurSemaid.
Consider the convenience to mothers who de-
sired to go shopping. Take the baby to the Cen
veral Post Office, tie on a tag with a Harlem ad-
dress, spend the day in the shops and arrive in time
Hfor die last delivery. Expense only few cents
81 No chance. It simply isn't practical Uncle Sam
rhas enough other duties. One can but admire the
subime faith in Mr.. Bureson of the parent who pro-
posed the idea.
