That sounds almost like 'fairy-tale'
talk doesn't it? And yet that is ex-
actly what the daily newspaper in
this year of 1922 does for us and
for billions of people all over the
world!
Keeping Up With the Times
Il doubt If there ever was a time
in the history of the world when so
many important and interesting
things were happening And there
certainly never was a time when the
news of the world was brought to
the front door of every one so
promptly and so completely and all
for one or two of the smallest coins
that Uncle Sam makes in his mints.
NOW that school is opening"
Uncle Harry continued, Il know you
will be busy with your studies, and
basketball, football and other school
sports. You won't always have time
to read up on all the important
news of the world. But news and
newspapers are two of my hobbies.
III keep track of the big and i'm
portant news and every Monday and
we will discuss some topic
that you will have seen mentioned in
the paper but which you may not
nave had time to read and study
thoroughly. And don't forget to tell
all your friends that if they want

RURALDELIVERY
26 YEARS OLD
Delaware Now Covered by
90 Routes That Extend
Over 2,625 Miles
A, 1856 ROUTES ARE
UNDER MR.. BILLANY
Special to The Evening Journal.

Special to The Evening Journal.
WASHINGTON, Sept. II. - The
United States rural mail service
over which Harry II. Billany, fourth
assistant postmaster-general, has SUI
pervision. will be 2e years old on
October /. it was announced at the
Postofice Department today.
The story as told by figures of the
advancement of this service, which
now reaches into the most remote
sections of the country and brings
into direct touch with the OUTSIDE
world the hermit OF the open spaces,
is interesting. Delaware has "
routes totaling 2.625 miles.
Fathered by Postmaster-General
Wanamaker. who first officially sug-
gested IL 10 Congress in 1891, the
rural delivery idea was fought Tor
FIVE years before It was finally given
a tryout.
AT the close OF business, June SO'
1922. the number of routes over
which Assistant Postmaster Billany
has supervision had jumped TO a.
lS6 with a total mileage of l'lSO'44S
miles. The insignificant appropria-
ton OF $4,000 made by Congress 20
years ago to initiate the service has
grown TO the tremendous figure OF
ss6, 500, 900.
The first complete county rural
route service was established De-
cember 90, 1889. in Carroll county
Maryland. From that date county
service rapidly developed until It
now covers more than 1000 coun-
ties
Up TO 1915 there were 26,oSO
fourth class postofices discontinued
on account of the establishment of
rural delivery service, representing
an annual saving in the postal ser
vice OF s1.613,04O, while the saving
resulting from the dlscontinuance OF
star routes was estimated at S3,-
4S4.670 per annum.
Illinois leads the nation both In
the number OF rural routes and in
mileage, there being 2,62i routes
covering a distance OF 70,174 miles
in that State. Ohio IS second with
2.5s4 routes and a mileage of 62,727
miles.

Gubbins wrestled with his con-
