General Delivery
BY Hal COCHRAN

At the postoffice window in any
old town where strangers inquire
for their mail, you always can tell,
by a smile or a frown, whether
hopes come as wanted, or fail.
A youth saunters UP in a nervous
like way, and he's handed a letter
from dad. It's one he's been wait
ing for many a day. There's a
check. It's no wonder he's glad.
A little old lady breaks out into
smile as her heart has occasion for
fun She stood in the line and she
waited a while-then they gave her
some mail from her son.
A girl in her teens who is fiashy
and fair will suddenly register
frown. She asked for her mail but
she found nothing there from a
sweetheart in some other town.
And thus, at the General De-
livery. all day, folks spirits so up
or go down. The ones who are
always affected that way are the
ones who are strangers in town.

Science

Business men have complained in
the past that the schools turn out
too many bookish persons, who will
not buckle down to work, while edu-
cationalists have grieved over the
fact that their product wa not APP
preciated
These two forces have quarreled
over a spite fence for several years.
The schoolmaster has held the idea
that the industrialist was a sordid
materialist not to be considered,
while the manufacturer retorted
that pupils coming from the schools
knew nothing of any value. Both of
these attitudes are to be discarded.
A movement has been initiated in
England for bringing together a
committee for adapting the needs of
the school to after-life and making
education what it really should be.
They have adopted as their slogan,
Education is the art Of making peo-
pie at home in their environment"

ly closes down pretty tightly on such
talk, whenever it is not directed to
some discernible appetitive purpose.
But if the lower lip gets a chance,
lit could espouse some very fine,
public causes.
Balanced Judgment
Underwood's eyes are worth put
ting considerable attention on. They
show two exactly opposite charac-
tiers, sex and appetite, not often
mingled Ia this way.
But when you look at the feshy
formation Of the Underwood eye
sockets. you find perfect outward
pointing triangles, indicating prop
erty-seeking characteristics. Since
this feshy structure has. Of course
developed during the Senator's ac-
i've lifetime, we might suppose his
naturally altruistic tendencies have
been turned, by the circumstances
Of his career, into appetitive chan
nels. That is. every human being
has some of both motives to begin
with.
1t is quite possible the motive
least in evidence at the start may
be brought out by the person S
environment so 1t is the predomi
nant one at maturity. So it seems to
be with Senator Underwood. Politics
have persistently repressed love
and have, at the same time, brought
out appetite-the motive necessary
| for success!
Underwood has a splendid head
His forehead is exceedingly high
broad and well-blended with the
dome and side curves Of his skull
That means a MISUNDERSTANDING
fully conscious, well-controlled mind
In fact, the forehead and head are
so unusually strong that one would
expect that cool, evenly balanced
judgment would usually outweigh
executive quickness and directness
of action.
Gets What He Seeks
If Underwood has made up his
mind that he has a good chance of
winning the Democratic nomina-
ton, his head shows that such a
judgment is something to bet on,
To sum up: Half Senator Under
woods eyes and mouth are made
for spotting good food-including
political plums-afar off, and for
launching such tidbits hard and
efficiently, The other half of eyes
and mouth protest against such pro-
cedure, and would seek out human
needs, ripe for discussion and
remedy.
The senatorial chin, though broad
and serviceable, is capable of much
executive efficiency.
And. above all else, the Under.
wood head is an organ of such
power that Democrats may well be
directed by it, and Republicans may
lie obliged to direct their principal
attacks at it.

nitely as a mail order catalog at the
farm population An even more
definite and a fal broader program
for rural consumption is being
shaped by the American Farm Blu
reau Federation.
A year and a half ago, federation
headquarters here pioneered into the
broadcasting field. 1t has developed
a regular program for Tuesday and
Friday nights OF each week from
station KYW. which has been heard
at least as far as New Mexico and
Maine. According to II. +. KILLER,
director Of information of the fedora
ton and arranger Of the radio pro
grams, it has just got started.
It's Educational
I'VE want to make the farm radio
programs a combination of univer-
sity. newspaper and chautauqua,"
says KILLER.
1T isn't to be an exclusive affair.
We want the cooperation of all or
CARNATIONS interested in agriculture.
Already the National Live Stock and
Meat Board, the National Live Stock
Producers Association, the Commit
tee on Boys and Girls Club Work
and similar organizations are united
with US in the project.
"A forum for agricultural discus
sion is the ideal. 1t should work
into the broadcasting of a farm pro-
gram every evening from half
dozen or more scattered stations to
bring it within easy range of every
part of the country"
Whether the farm audience itself
