P. ms. INSPECTING
RURAL ROUTES
(By Associated Press,

Louisville, KY, May 25-Act-
ing under instructions from the
Post Office Department, post
masters throughout the country
recently have made an inspection
of the rural routes, the work in
this county having been done by
William F. Wobbe, assistant SUI
perintendent of mails. Mr.. Wob-
be, who has charge of the rural
routes in Jefferson county, said
that this county was conforming
to the postal regulations on To-
cation of boxes and that so far
as he has been able to ascertain
the patrons were being served
promptly and satisfactorily.
The purpose of the inspection
according to Mr.. Wobbe, was
that the postmasters might as
certain by personal observation
and make report whether the
roads used were in good condi-
ton for travel, the routes well
arranged, the boxes properly
erected so as to be easily reach
ed by the carriers without OBJ
structirg the highways and il
the carriers were serving theit
routes as officially prescribed
The work also was investigated
from the side OF the patrons and
questions were asked as to the
service and suggestions for i'm
provement were sought.
1t is the desire OF the depart
ment and its purpose to provide
adequate and convenient serv-
ice" said Mr.. WoDbe. ''Th;s
service to ali patrons residing on
the rural routes can no. be OBJ
tanned without the full coopera
ton of the patrons in the effort,
Of postmasters and carriers t.
serve them promptly, regularly
and satisfactorily"
Patrons can be of great assist
ance, according to Mr.. Wobbe,
by providing themselves with
stamps instead OF placing IN
stamped letters and money in the
rural boxes. This delays the car
riers and many times imposes an
unnecessary hardship on him, II
the opinion Of Mr.. Wobbe.

Ancient Land Terrapin

Mr.. Roscoe Broce, who lives
near Cummin's Ferry. on hentuc-
ky river, brought land terrapin
to the Herald office Saturday,
which, if evidence is true, must
be more than 107 years old. On
the shell underneath was carved
r. f. lis. and B. D, us. The
carving was almost obliterated
the long time the terrapin has
moved about. Evidently two
persons had monogramed it at

he would put his initials and date

creature loose in the same field

At the Strand Theatre

POilcemen, members of their
families and their friends through
put the nation, have every reason to
express their gratitude-as thou
sands of them are doing right now
for the new motion picture In
the Name of the Law" shown for
the first time at the Strand theatre
yesterday.
This kind of a motion picture has
been a long time coming. 1t gives
the policeman a square deal. 1t re-
deems him in the eyes of the pub
lie. 1t shows in vivid dramatic
sequence that the average policemen
is a splendid. home loving, God
fearing citizen and not an awkward
and slovenly buffoon as he has been
pictured in many of the comic films.
1t shows the policeman of today
as a stout-hearted guardian of law
and order who supports his family
with all the devoted diligence of the
best American traditions. 1t shows
m 1t shows his children as
fine youngsters reared in an en-
vironment of the best type.
Moreover, "In the Name of the
Law" unfolds a stirring tale of the
woe that besets the family of Pat
O'Hara, a policeman of the San
Francisco force. They have two
grown sons, Harry and Johnny and
!. an adopted daughter Mary. All the
\children encounter troubles of vary
ing degrees Of seriousness. But ir
the end Pa and Ma O'Hara figh'
their way through the barrier o
despair and attain the heights O.

materialize this fall, if the Board
of Freeholders leave the strip OF
of a mile bet een here
and Outcalt in the condition of tie
present, IL was learned this morn
ing by a reporter of Perth Amboy
Evening News.
This borough has fallen short Of
bus service due to the bad condl-
ton of the road. The operators
found it impossible to give good SER
vice, especially in the winter time,
When the roads were in a deplora-
BILE condition. The plan to resume
the bus service was recently out
lined, since the freeholders have
improved the greater part OF this
route and the conveyance OF pas
sengers would have come into et-
feet at the end of this month.
The fact that the freeholders
plan to defer the completion of the
Outcalt-Spotswood road until next
spring brings a general protest from
the residents in these districts.
There are indications that at the
next meeting of the Board of Free
holders a delegation will go to New
Brunswick and urge them to COM
plete this short strip of road which,
it is said, will take only a short time
10 complete.
1t was also learned that the Mid
dlesex Property Owners Corpora
tive Association, which is develop
ing a large tract in Jamesburg Park.
will join in pushing the improve
ment of this road, since they are
planning to give a free bus service
to all the residents who acquire
their homes on the now developing
tract. Jamesburg Park is located
on the main road where the bus
route is proposed and is only Owe a
