POSTAL sUB-STATION TO
BE OPENED AT FALLS

Feb. LIST postal sub station No. will
be opened in the store at No. "a Sherman
street conducted by Louis Haggerty. This
sub-station is for the accommodation Of
the Falls district.
The sub-station will be supplied with
stamps and stamped envelopes and will
issue domestic money orders and regis
ter mail The opening of this station will
no doubt prove a convenience to the peo-
pie living at the Falls.
AS the compensation to the clerks in
charge of the sub ations is very limit
ed, it is difficult at times to find business
men willing to accept the positions, said
Postmaster John P. Murphy in making
the announcement of the opening of the
station, as it causes much interruption to
their regular business. Much of this
could be avoided if patrons would not
/ conflne themselves to the purchase OF
| only what stamps are needed for each
| mailing, he said. A Csc or s.0c book of
| stamps purchased by each patron would
prove convenient to the purchaser and
would save time for the clerks at the
| stations.

RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED BY -.
THE CAMP FIRE GIRLS

New York, Jan. 29.--Use of military
terms in the outdoor work of Camp Fire
Girls is discouraged in a resolution adopt
ed today by 100 executives at the closing
session Of the second annual conference.
L has been proven, it said, that better
response TO the camp fire program is
gained by substituting the organized hike
and The organized game for the former
drill and by using terms of everyday life
TO express leadership in place of military
Technology.
II also was voted to submit to the
Physical. Education association of Amer
lea the suggestion that it use its inf1u-
ence in making physical training in the
public schools take more the form of in
formal work out Of doors than so much
formal drill in the gymnasium.
Camp Fire Girls also were encouraged
10 gather the legends and traditions OF
the localities in which they live and
whenever possible dramatic them for
uses in community celebrations. Mem
hers of the organization in foreign coun-
tries were advised to go back to the
early traditions of their respective coun.
tries substituting Their native symbolism
and legendry for that Of the American
Indian. Executives of the order were
urged to lay special emphasis OIL its ma.
iional and international scope.
