 Right in Open

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, Feb 21. Uncle Sam does business right on the street here.
 St. Petersburg's main postoffice claims the distinction of being the only completely open air establish ment of its kind in the country Others are somewhat similar but the postoffice department says ther" $ not another just like this one.
 Here the boxes, mail chuteS stamp. general delivery, parcel post, postal savings, information and n.aney order windows all face an open air portico around the build ing.
 Local officials had struggle to get this kind of postoffice but final ly convinced the postoffice depart ment the mild climate would make it success 1t has.
 AS originally planned the build ing was to have been erected on a mound but the citizens again won out and succeeded in having 1t placed on level with the ground.
 The postoffice does a booming business, the city's total receipts approximating half million dol- lars in good years. A lot of extra windows have to be opened to take care of the big crowd of winter visitors.

Truck, Locomotive on
 Home-Made Railroad

ABERDEEN, SD, Feb. 2l. = A unique carrier contraption and a standard highway truck are the To- comotive power for railroad line which operates on IS miles of track between Leola and Mound City. S. D., near here.
 Farmers and business men revived the defunct Mound City and Eastern railroad to fulfill their own trans portation needs. They cut operating expenses 40 percent by using a simple pilot car conceived by w. W. Rabey, manager of the line.
 The pilot car was constructed by djsmembering an old flatcar. It is composed of two units which are joined by hooks to the center after a motor truck is backed into shafts similar to those of the outmoded buggy.
 The front wheels of the motor vehicle are carried in cradle six inches above the rails by the front section. The rear wheels rest on the rails and are held in position. with cut the use of flanges, by the rear section of the pilot car.

Only Is, sews way to fame
By SARAH JAYNES

SEYMOUR, la, Feb. 2l.-A l6- year-old farm boy stands victorious in the mo mans land" of nation wide dressmaking contest.
 The only boy entrant in a high school contest that attracted five thousand girl dressmakers, Jack Harbert of Seymour walked off with first prize locally and went on to win the special Gruen award in New York.
 Jack. who is a senior in high school here. is looked upon as the final authority in all matters of dress by the faculty and student body alike. Now he's on his way to bigger things, and the folk back home who have made him their un- official stylist may soon be able to see the stars wearing his creations at the Main Street movie house.
 Makes Suits for Himself
 Jack is full of plans for college and a dress designing career after that. He might be mans tailor, having made two full suits for him. self. He might even be book keeper, having established record as one of the brightest commercial students ever to enroll in the high school. He prefers working with women's clothes though and be- lieves there are greater opportuni- ties in this field.
 ! The prize winning dress. which he made for his pretty teacher, Miss Myrtle Reynolds, isn't his first ven- ture into the world of sartorial creation. He's made his mother several dresses and does most of her sewing.
 The only reason he hasn't gone out for athletics is that his heart isn't strong enough to enable him to enter competitive sports. He's an ardent fan though and a real boy through and through.
 Two years ago he entered the advance sewing class, the only boy in the history of the high school to have done so. His skill was imme- diately apparent, and he now acts as chairman of the costumfne a chairman of the costumins committee for the school operetta horn in the school band, sings 1T the glee club and takes part 1T dramatics. He even can cook, al though he. doesn't enjoy it partic- ularly
