found that the increase designed to
add to the revenue had caused. as
Mr.. New said, "a great falling off in

might, If it would. learn a lesson
from such a result of higher rates.
Congress should demand that the
Postoffice Department cooperate at
once to end the intolerable situation.
The Postmaster General, it would
seem is mainly concerned for the
fiscal year ending next June at
$37,000,000. TO reduce this deficit by
businesslike management is praise
worthy endeavor; but Congress can
instruct the department that the best
way to do so is to provide service
and rates which will promote the
greater use of the malls, and not
drive traffic away.

pull the shades down, Little Mousie.
Make it comfy in our housie,"
laughed dear Uncle Lucky, just before
/ finished the last story. And of
course his obedient little housekeeper
scampered across the floor to do his
bidding when. all of a sudden, the
kitchen door flew open and In hoped
the Old Red Rooster, all out of breath.
"Cock-a- doodle-do,
I'm glad I'm home with YOU,
I've Just escaped sly Danny Fox
Sneaking about in his tiptoe sox,"
gasped the old fowl.
"What are you saying?" asked the
old gentleman rabbit from the sitting
schair to hop into the kitchen. Close at
his heels followed Little Miss Mousie,
who on seeing the Old Red Rooster,
exclaimed:
"Please forget the crafty fox,
For the clock with ticky tocks
Tells it's time for us to eat
Carrot Cakes with raisins sweet"
Goodness me, what q practical little
person is this tiny mouse housekeeper.
Perhaps that's the reason Uncle Lucky
is so we'll taken care of. Practical peo-
pie. after all, are very comforting.
Yes, take off your cap and sup with
u.s." invited kind Uncle Lucky First
satisfy your appetite and then tell us
your troubles"
Just as they all had finished supper
and the Old Red Rooster had explained
how he had escaped wicked Danny
Fox, the telephone bel began to ring,
Tinkle tinllle, tinllle tinki
Winkerty. winkerty, winky Blink!
and in answer to Little Miss Mousie's
question, who's calling?" Little Jack
Rabbit shouted: i've written Valen-
tine poem for the Bunnybridge Bugle.
Did you see their offer of prize for
the best poem in this mornings pap
err"
I'VE saw it. and Uncle Lucky wrote
a poem" laughed Little Miss Mousie.
THE Old Red Rooster took 1t down to
the Bugle Office this afternoon. Keep
a lookout for Danny Fox. He almost
caught the old fowl"

RELATIVE TO WAR

A correspondent tells us we should
make war impossible. An excellent
admonition. A way by which to do
1t is essential, however. Many have
claimed to have found it. Cores
pondent admonishes that we must get
into a state Of mind in which a no.
war purpose dominates. Would that
the telling us how were assurance of
the will, Undoubtedly something
may be done toward educating the
will. but the impulse to exercise that
will, does that come by way Of edu-
cation?
The correspondent appears to think
that because war has been outlawed
between cities in one state or country
so might war between different
countries be outlawed. Perhaps it
might be done in process Of time. a
long time. Besides were one city
convinced it's material welfare de-
pended on breaking the peace might
1t not do so did conditions appear
favorable But make the conditions
unfavorable BY all means short of
inviting disaster.
One is reminded that prior to the
World War learned men declared
and gave figures to demonstrate that
war with the terrible weapons then
at command would be impossible
over any duration Of time: that
human nature could not stand
against such terrible destruction.
Had France, for instance. decided
that these conclusions were trust
worthy. disbanded her army and
trusted to altruistic wisdom where
would she have been today? In
stead. she stood at verdun against
more terrible weapons than. the fore
casters had seen and Germany
suffered under terrible lesson on the
futility Of a war Of aggression. We
wonder whether she SO came into
closer communion with the spirit of
the Golden Rule. II she did not. she
should; II she did, 1t will be worth
livery effort to make the communion
Avsn closer. There never was greater
Need Of war on selfishness than right
pow. a righteous war; hold up the
hands Of those engaged In 1t.

Jackson, Miss, Feb. 8 (AP)-
Sanitary drinking cups are furnished
to visitors, but the Governor of Mis-

The long gourd hanging near the
water cooler in the executive Office

visitors who have dropped in for a
social CALL" The neck of the gourd
is almost three feet long and the
bowl is cleverly fashioned into a
serviceable dipper.
Governor Whitfield has used this
gourd since taking Office more than
two years ago. 1t was presented to
