But one day Sonny fell down and
broke his arm. He didn't cry, but 1t
did hurt. His hand and arm hung
limp. So they called the doctor and
had the arm set and then put into a
sling.
When Sonny went out the next day

most nancers and international experts of the country
who wanted know what plain dirt farmer of Iowa

IF this Council would ask Congress require that
all business foreign commerce shall be
transacted under federal charter

into organization which distributes $1,000
worth of commodities to its members annually that all
antitrust laws be repealed this effected
there would be further for them; every
farmer every labong and every soldier join
in that request.
Such step would for the human race more
for the advancement of civilization than any step taken
by any generation since the changers

Not only is cooperation the hope of American work
ersand farmers but is the only perma-
nent world peace, Senator Brookhart continued
II do not come before you a technical student of

he thought, and paid the postman.
When the postman had departed the
girl told Mr.. Hill she was sorry he had
paid the postman because the letter
was from her lover, and they had de-
vised a code system which they put on
the outside of the letters. After get
ting their message by reading the
codes they refused to pay the charges
and the postman had to destroy the
letters and the government made no
money. Hill thought this bad stu
alton, so after much thought the stamp
was originated so that the public must
pay BEFORE letter is mailed.
"It is long time since the land
lords daughter and her sweetheart
were cheating the government. Today
one of the most interesting sections of
the department is the dead letter Of
flee. About 100000 dead letters
and packages and more than 100000
postcards find their way to the dead
letter office each year. Besides, you
know money can be sent from one
place to another through the postof-
flee by what is called money orders,'
safe and practical way
From the time the government
printers finish making the stamps
until the letter is received great ma
chine is moving to bring that letter
to its proper destination. You drop
the letter in the box. One man picks
1t from the box. 1t goes to the post
office here where the stamp is can
celled and then thrown into mail
sack that will take it to the proper
train. There it is handled again by
the efficient postal clerk on the mail
car. When it arrives at its destina-
tion it comes from the sack, ana
through the hands of sorters gess to
the postman who will deliver it to the
front door. If it must 60 far into the
country it is given to rural carrier
who deposits it in the little box, many
of which you have seen along the
country road. No matter how bad the
weather, he gets that letter there.
''That gives you some idea of the
great postal system. Never before in
it's history has its efficiency been as
high as it is under the present admin
istrat.on. For several years previous
to the inauguration of President Hard
ing there was poor management and a
great deal of complaint from all over
the United States about poor mail ser

heard. Now, kiddies, run along to bed
