NThe sorapper" at Rialto

linson in "The Scrapper,' one OF the

same time most virile roles this

Written originally by r. G. KIRK

Pat Malloy, according to Kirk, was
an Irish lad just out of an engineer

erection of a great hotel for Nc

Cost of Delivery
How much does it cost for a de-
rartment store to carry home q pack
age for a customer? The National
Retail Dry Goods Association, which
lis answering the question, has COM
piled the results of a QUESTIONABLE on
the subject, and found that it may
cost store an average anywhere
from 5.5c. to 30c.
Thirty-three stores, members of the
association. We're asked how much it
cost them. These stores, each of
which does a business of more than
81 900, 900 annually, gathered their
statistics and sent in the results to
the bureau of research and informa-
tion Of the association. The result as
shown in a chart, indicates that for
fifteen of the thirty three stores the
cost of delivery per package is 12-15c.
For eight of them the cost is 15-18c.
1t costs four stores less than 10c. to
deliver a package, two it costs 10-12c.,
two 1926. and two more than 25c.
The stores included in the list are
scattered all over the country from
Massachusetts to California and from
Washington to Texas. The statistics
show the result of careful accounting
and include practically every expense
connected with the delivery of the
package, such as the package collec-
tors wages, the shipping departments
wages, delivery department wages
freight and express charges, postage
special messengers, c. o. D. collection
charges, packing supplies, gasoline
and oil, electric light, depreciation, re-
pairs, rental charges for space occu-
pied by the delivery department, loss
and uniforms for employees.
Those stores, however, which show
per package cost of less than 10c
die not include in their reckoning such
items as rental. Results of the ques-
tionnaire seem to indicate that it cost
bit more than 12c to deliver mi
lady's parcel.

WE ASKED THEM

We hope our critics, who were SO
ready to jump on the Star about ask
ing the Ocala preachers for an opin-
ion on the Arbuckle pictures, will
read the telegram from Superintend
ent Cawthon on the first page.
The teachers association took ac-
ton on the Arbuckle pictures at the
request of the National Editorial AS
sociation, and we do not know that
the Stars request was presented to
the association. In view Of the re-
quest from a much more powerful
agency, it was not necessary. But
it was made, all the same, and we
have no doubt that if it had been
presented it would have received the
same answer.
There is every indication that the
better class of people all over the
United States are opposed to the
sappy mug of Arbuckle being 1aunt-
ed any more on the movie screens.

EIGHT YEARS AGO

Dec. 30, 1914.-An artillery battle
was raging along 300 miles of the
western front. 1t was the most ter
rife cannonade ever know up to that
time and was cutting down thousands
of men every hour, but it was puny
compared with many that came after
it.
On the western front, the Allies had
gained ground on the Germans inch
by inch since the battle of the Marne,
but the Germans yet held a tenth of
France and 80 per cent of Belgium.
In other wars, when the most bitter
season of winter came, armies gener-
ally went into camp, but in this one
the soldiers camped in their trenches,
from Switzerland % the North Sea,
and fought without intermission day
and night.
On the eastern front, another
mighty battle on an even longer line
went on. Russian against German
and Austrian, from the frozen Baltic
to far down amid the rocks and ra-
vines of the Carpathians, men black
ened the skies with battlesmoke and
dyed the snow with blood. The ad-
vantage so far was with the BUS
sians-they had given a few miles in
Poland to the Germans and had taken
many leagues in Galicia away from
the Austrians.
In the south, little Serbia and Mon
tenegro held their own. Six months
Of war and the might of the Austrian
empire had not driven the Serbs away
from the Danube nor taken a crag
from the men Of the Black Mountain
Further to the east the Russians
steadily drove the Turks back into
Armenia. Away down south, the
British had taken their first hold on
Mesopotamia, and driven back the
Turks who were striving to block the
Suez canal.
German and Austrian commerce
was wiped off the seas, and theil
navies, except for submarines, lay
sheltered under the Notifications OF
their harbors.
1t was such horrible war that al
except a few said it could not much
longer last.
And it had only begun.
The United States protested against
interruption by the Allies to its com
merce. The Allies received the pro
test politely and went on interrupting

4 VERY PARTICULAR
NEW YEAR REQUEST

During the past year. the Star has
striyen strenuously to give its readers
a good paper. The measure of its
success may be gauged by the fact
that while it has gained many sub
scribers it has lost few, except those
who have died or moved away.
The Star is not much of a paper
compared with a big city daily, but
considering its means and the number
of its workers it is a whale on wheels,
and almost any man in any other busi-
ness would be surprised to learn
what seemingly small items cost.
There is nothing cheap about a news
paper. Men and material cost more
than the same items in almost any
other business. i.
A considerable number of daily
subscriptions expire on the first of
January. We hope they will be
promptly renewed. We don't ask any
body who doesn't like the paper to go
on taking it. But we hope those who
do like it will show the most effective
method of appreciatiOn-by renewing
| at once.
There is only one item of expense
that the Star can cut down on, and be
. newspaper at all, and that is white
paper, which costs like the dickens
We hope that next week, none of Our
readers will compel us to tell the

How to Furnish a Corner.

There is nothing more difficult In
furnishing large room or hallway
than the selection of the proper piece
of furniture to fit a corner attrac-
lively. A little console table with a
right angle back affords an interest
ing and clever solution of this prob
lem, and is equally appropriate for the
hall or the drawing room. 1t may be
of carved wood, or stained or enam-
eled. or of wrought iron, or Of weed
finished with gold. or Of metal, so that
this particular bit of furniture may
be made to fit in delightfully."- with
any variety of furnishings or fitting.
