urday workday was to go as far
as the department had the legal
authority in allowing such mon to
end the days work at such times as
would result in giving them the
benefit of the slack work which
happened to exist on Saturday."
the Postmaster General explained.
Slack Saturdays.
There are many places where
business is quite fully suspended on
Saturday afternoon and where men
in postoffices are almost obliged
to stand around and soldier out
their time. This seemed to be
wholly unnecessary and so we put
1t up to the postmasters to take
advantage Of this principal of slack
work on Saturday and give the
employees the benefit of it's as
equitably as they could.
1T Is so universal to have as
much respite as possible from work
on Saturday afternoons that we
felt justified in going thus far.
Clerks and carriers can often spring
to their work with more energy and
shorten up the day and do no in.
Justice to anybody. When they can
DO this we are glad to have them"

GENEVA Sept. 5.-Premier
Edouard Herriot, Socialist head of
the French government, today
came out in direct opposition to
the suggestion Of Premier Ramsay
Macdonald of England for a world
disarmament conference.
Addressing the League of Ma
tons assembly and speaking in the
name of France Premier Herriot
declared that the proper place for
disarmament discussions was with
in the league. He declined the
offer to work for another confer
ence such as was held at Washing
ton several years ago for limita-
ton of sea ornaments.
Death Blow to Plan.
Herriot's statement was generally
regarded as the death knell for
another international parley such
as is desired by President Coolidge
and Premier Macdonald.
Herriot expressed the hope that
the United States will collaborate
with the League of Nations for
disarmament.

Prince Here Solely
For Holiday, Not Work
Says Royal Spokesman
By ROLAND KREBS,
international News Serviea

SYOSETT, N. Y. Sept. 5.-Some
little apprehension cropped up today
among the Prince of Wales party
here that the American public was
getting His Royal Highness all
wrong. He's no Jazz hound"
There was a fear among those
close to the British crown heir that
because the United States hears
mostly of Wales playing at polo,
going to races, dancing at luncheons,
dancing at teas, at dinners, and
dancing at suppers that last until
s in the morning. it is beginning
to believe him little more than a
"jazz hound" who some day NAV
try, on a throne, to catch up on
his sleep.
1.-THE prince came here for a
holiday" said a spokesman for
Wales ''He does not intend to
do a tap Of work until he leaves
the United States on September
IA. Since his boyhood the prince
has had little time to himself. He
has been so rushed for a life time
that even his tutoring was oral,
rather than by book. There was
no time for book study.
Now he has a chance to play
and he means to make the most
OF 1t. For, when the prince goes
to his ranch at High River, AL,
berta, on the 14th, he will have to
go to work"
Does the prince really work
there?" this spokesman was asked.
Works On His Ranch.
Indeed he does" was the EN-.
phatic answer. although it was
property added to the inherited
Duchy Of Cornwall, he places him.
self at the disposal OF his ranch
manager.
when he arises in the morning,
the prince asks what there is to
be done. One day there is stock
to be corraled. The next there
may be hay to be gotten. Or per.
haps post holes must be dug.
1.-THE Prince Of Wales works al
these ranch chores just like any
other cowboy.
AT home 1t is the same. Much
Of his time is devoted to public
activities. He has interests in
India and Australia. He must
know as an Officer of the royal
navy how to navigate a ship; as
an officer Of the army he must
be able to handle a regiment.
"All OF that takes time. It Is
only natural that ne should enjoy
his present relaxation and wish
to make the most OF it."

Mothers Day at Old South

The Mothers day service at the
Old South was of interest and appeal
to all. There was an excellent audi
ence and the service was well worth
their while. There were two special
anthems, the first with a trio, Mrs.
Johnson, Miss Lucille Morse and Mrs.
Falconi. and solos, Mrs. Johnson, Mr..
Sanre and w. Frank Pierce, as well
as a chorus by the full choir. The
offertory anthem had an effective
solo by Mrs. Johnson. The pastor s
sermon was most appropriate to the
day. Motherhood and Womanhood
were the themes. He said that
motherhood began its triumphal pro-
gress with the birth of the babe in
Bethlehem. He paid a splendid tri-
butte to the Pilgrim mothers, that
heroic band Of eighteen who crossed
the wintry seas in the Mayfower. of
whom but four lived out the year;
Yet all of whom in their descendants
left a splendid heritage for the coun-
try. He mentioned the women Of
history. like Joan of Arc and closed
with the presen day opportunities for
women to be of use in the world.
