MAIL BOXES

Mail boxes on every house is the
slogan of the postoffice department,
says the Miles City Daily Star. In
fact the authorities are going to in
sist that every person receiving his
mail and having it delivered to his
residence, provide a proper receptacle
for the mail received.
The vast majority of the people ap-
preciate the delivery Of mail several
times daily and it is a service calcu-
lated to bring the people into closer
touch with their government.
1t is not strange there is a minority
who do not appreciate anything that
is being done for their comfort. Re-
quests and pleas, and wen begging,
has proven to be unavailing that a
mail box be hung up on the residence
for the reception of the mail that the
government is so willing to deliver to
the door.
There is going to be a change. The
postoffice department has issued an
order that at the end of four months
no mail is to be delivered at any dwell
ing house not having a slot or APP
proved receptacle for mail at the front
door. The %postoffice department states
that 70 per cent of the people show
their appreciation Of the daily POSTWAR
by having either a letter slot or re-
ceptacle for mail, but the other &c
per cent are apparently Indifferent
The time it takes the postman to stop
ring door bells and wait for dwellers
to respond to get their mail not only
adds to the burden of each mail car.
rier but delays the delivery of al
other mail. For that reason the orde,
has been issued that at the end Of
four months all dwellings, not equipped
with proper mail receptacles will not
be furnished with mail delivered by
postmen.

SCARS IN MOTORLESS PLANE
TOWED BY A MOTOR BOAT

Port Washington, N. Y.-Glenn H.
Curtiss, aviation expert, sailed recent
ly over M~anhasset bay in a sail plane,
which on two occasions took the air
when towed by a speed boat, stayed
aloft 40 seconds each time with the
tow line cut, and then glided gracefully
down to the water again. This was
said to be the first time a marine Gid
err has eve risen from the water.
At the end Of the experiment, OBJ
served by a large party of engineers,
Mr.. Curtiss expressed himself we'll
pleased with the result of the test, and
then gave himself to interesting spec
ulation on the possibility of 'air
trains"-a number of sail planes
towed through the air by a motored
seaplane.
The theory that trailers could be
attached to a flying boat was advanced
by aviation experts who watched the
flights, after D. Gilmore, chief engin-
Ger of the Curtis corporation, discov-
cred that the sail plane tugged very
lightly at the tow line. With the sail
plane aloft in the air, Gilmore grasped
the line and found he could hold it
with one hand.
When the theory was laid before
Mr.. Curtiss, he said he believed it
practical to tow a sail plane behind a
flying boat at considerable height,
without danger. Representatives of the
aeronautical chamber of commerce an
nounced that such an experiment prob
ably would be made soon.

BUREAU REPORTS MONTANA
HAS A SHORTAGE OF LABOR

Observation-Disclosures is one state
that has developed a material labor
shortage. According to the United
States employment bureau, difficulty
in securing copper miners continues,
and the only unemployment noted is
among the railroad shopmen on strike.
The report reviewing conditions in
Montana says in part:
There is a continued demand for
labor, especially for the harvest fields,
the smelters and the copper mines. A
few of the smaller copper mines are
temporarily closed on account of the
insufficient supply of experienced
miners.
"The smelling companies in the
Great Falls and Helena districts are
in need of smeltermen, shovelers, car
penters and unskilled laborers.
"The harvesting of the 40, 0OO, 900
bushel wheat crop, the second largest
in the history of the state, and of the
largest potato and hay crops in the
history of the state, is making a big
demand for agricultural labor, princi-
pally in Eastern, Central and North
eastern Montana.
SIN Butte conditions of employment
are active but unsteady, due to the
difficulty of the copper mining COM
panies in securing miners. Two-fifths
of the mines are not operating on &C.
count of the labor shortage. Many
metal miners have temporarily left
the mines to assist in harvesting. An
ample supply of labor is available for
all other industries. A packing plant
recently added many employees. Seven
miles of highway construction on the
road between Butte and Anaconda, to
be completed in November, is provid.
ing considerable employment"

Soon he was spending hundreds Of
thousands of dollars in Advertising
and making millions in return. Today
he is among the w~ealthiest men in
America-but he is still ADVERTISING
and still selling gum. If Wrigley can
do this we'll with a five cent article
and lots of competition, think what
others can do with goods on which
there is more profit and in a field that
isn't SO crowded. There is a lesson in
Wrigley's experience for any small
town merchant, too, if he cares to
learn it. And that is that no matter
how small the profit, there's money in
it if you let the people know the quail
ity and value of the goods to be dis
posed of and thus create a demand.

MISS JEANETTE RANKIN
HAS STRIKE SUGGESTION

Peoria, Ill.-Miss jeanette Rankin,
first congresswoman, in a Labor Day
speech here recently, urged equal par

one woman have a secret vote to decide
whether it should be or not be p" Miss
Rankin asked. 81 am not criticizing
the wisdom of the actions of the un-
ions, but l merely say this action was
taken without the consent of the gov

for the thousands Of women involved"
