A STORY WITH A MORAL
The following, where a moral is
clearly shown, is taken from an
exchange: Recently a church con
gregation in a little Kansas town
built a new church. To pay for
it they were obliged to call on the
merchants of the community for
donations. The merchants re
sponded liberally, and $800 was
raised from this source. The last
imtn asked to subscribe was John
Smith, a jeweler. “I will give
you $20 if you will let me add
something to the subscription
list,” he said. The permission
was accorded him, and lie wrote at
the foot of the list:
John Smith, jeweler.$20.00
Sears, Roebuck & Co. 00.00
Montgomery, Ward & (Jo.. 00.00
The church people saw the point
when the minister read from the
pulpit the list of donors to the
building fund, and since the dedi
cation of the church, there have
been no mail orders sent out from
that town.

RURAL FREE DELIVERY ROUTES
Arkansas is Behind in This Re- '
spect, having Only 305
Routes New in Operation
The growth of the free rural de
livery service in Arkansas is en
couraging. It seems as though
the institution has at last become
popular in the state. The bene
fits derived from the service are
m u n \t • n tt .. a^I.ah f » k aa »

! routes facilitate business and have
j a tendency of bringing the people
in closer touch with one another,
which, in itself is a great thing.
According to postoffice depart
i merit figures there are in operation
today over 300 free rural delivery
i routes in Arkansas. Several years
ago the number of routes in oin -\
tion in the state was insignificant |
The people did not seem to care
for them and the people’s repre
sentatives in Washington made no
effort to explain to their constitu
ents what a useful institution a ru
ral free delivery route really is.
Things have now changed, how
; ever, and there is some real activ
ity among the Arkansas congress
men to get routes for their con
stituents. But there is still room
for more energy, and as the ser
j vice is gratuitous there is no reas
1 on why Arkansas should not enjoy
its benefits fully. The Tennessee
ans, for instance, can show 1,544
free rural delivery routes in oper
ation in their state. This gives
I him a decided advantage over his
brother in Arkansas, where only
one fifth as many routes have been
| established. A free rural deliv
ery route is a great convenience
and comfort to the people and has
so many other advantages—not to
mention the business side—that it
is high time that somethihg be
done for the people.
A free rural delivery route in a
1 community means the delivery of
mail to the home of the farmer.
Altogether 571 petitions for free
rural delivery service have been
received by the postoffice depart
ment from Arkansas. Two hun
dred petitions have been adversely
reported, and 65 are still pending.
A statement from the postoffice
department shows that only thirty
six petitions for rural delivery
routes have been tiled by Con
gressman Brundidge from this dis
trict. Of these only sixteen have
been granted and are now in op
eration, fourteen having been ad
versely reported and six are now
pending.
GOOD OPENING FROM NEWARK ,
There is a fine opening from
Newark to Cord and back by way
of Charlotte. More than the re
quired number of families could
be served and as the roads are ;
reasonably good the year round,
there is no reason why the people 1
in that territory could not be serv- 1
ed if they would only get up a pe- ^
tition and go after the matter in ,
the proper manner. ;
