Following hard upon the heels of
the announcement by the Post
office Department Of a new special
delivery stamp depicting a special
messenger mounted upon the lat.
est type Of motorcycle equipment
and depicting the increased speed
of postal delivery service, comes an
announcement today that no special

after IL o'clock at night.
The announcement was based on
an order issued to postmasters by
First Assistant Postmaster General
Bartlett. Orders provide that spe.
cial delivery mail not handled by
IL o'clock at night shall be delivered
''as soon as possible after o'clock
the next morning"
No explanation Is given, but It
Is assumed by officials that 1t is
taken for granted that the new

logical situation which will result
in specials arriving before the wee

WORK PERMITS
GIVEN HERE To
800 CHILDREN
Or. BaIIou Reports Applicants
In Better Physical State
Than in Past.

Six hundred children Of the Dis
trict have been given regular per-
mits to work, according to a report
made by Frank w. Ballou, super
intendent of public schools. OF that
number 40s are white boys, 1872 white
girls, fifty colored boys, and ten
colored girls. In seventythree- cases
permits were signed by the fudge Of
the Juvenile Court upon recon.
mendation of the superintendent Of
the public schools. A number Of
temporary permits were made
regular when the applicant had some
physical defect corrected.
Thirty-one permits were refused
because the applicants were under
age or had some physical defect.
A total of 438 boys and girls are
now wearing street trade badges. OF
this number 206 were renewed. Since
January / a deposit of so cents for
each badge is required, but the money
win be refunded II the badge is il
good condition when returned.
An indication Of better school a.
tendance is seen in the decrease OF
the number of recommendation TO
the Judge of the juvenile court for
permits to work. A pupil who has
been derelict in his attendance at
school must obtain his or her permit
from the Judge. Shortage Of work in
the community is given as the reason
for the decrease in the general is
suance of work permits.
DIR. Ballou's report also shows that
the applicants are in better physical
condition when applying for permits
than in former years, and there Is
q greater willingness on the part of
parents and children to have physical
defects corrected"
"The decrease in the number OF
permits" the report says, has made
more follow-up work possible and has
resulted in q large number Of chill
dren being persuaded to return to
school and to take advantage of dem
tai and nutrition clinics"
