'RIVERS MAY GET
TAGS LIKE HUNTERS:
Surely the time is not coming
then it will be necessary to require
iat motor vehicle operators, like
eer hunters, display their personal
sgistration number on their cloth-
1g?"
Commissioner Benjamin G. Eynon,
¢ the Motor Vehicles Bureau, asked
1at question.
During 1929 the State of Pennsyl-
ania will license more than 1,950,-
00 drivers. It will license over 1,-
50,000 passenegr cars and trucks.
ut the number of men 4nd women
riving these cars and trucks from
me to time is far greater than the
umber who apply for drivers’ cards.
“T dare say that in Pennsylvania
[ties and the very rural communi-
es,” sald Commissioner Eynon,
half a million cardless drivers op-
rate. I believe it is safe to estimate
wo drivers in every family which
ans a car. Half a million men, wo-
\en and in many cases children are
iking an unfair advantage of driv-
rs who pay the price of admission.”

THE BIGGEST BUSINESS
IN THE WORLD.
Do you know what it is—the big-
est business in the world? It’s the
United States Postal System, and
you, no doubt, help to make it so,
because every time you mail a let-
ter or a package it increases a wee
bit the job that the Postal Service
has to do.
Every second of the twenty-four
hours of every day there is 389 let-
ters dropped into letter boxes, every
minute 23,340, and every hour 1,400,-
400. The Postal Service on the aver-
age delivers annually 112 letters to
every man, woman and child in the
United States.
A letter by itself doesn’t weigh
much. But there are 12,000,000,000
letters that go through the mail in
one year, and it is estimated that this
load of letters alone weighs some-
thing like 133,350 tons.
Fifteen and a half billion stamps
and one and a quarter billion postal
cards are sold every year by the Pos-
tal Department. ;
But it isn’t only letters and cards
that go through the mail. Every
year the United States Postal Serv-
lice handles 23,000,000,000 articles.
Every year, too, the number of
articles in the mail has increased
more than a billion which shows how
this “biggest business” is growing.
People who live in the country are
not neglected by the Postal Service.
Rural carriers deliver mail every-
where through the country so that
people living on farms do not have to
go much farther to get their mail
than do city folks. Today there are
44,552 rural routes, over which the
mail carriers supply mail to 6,504,-
592 families.
Naturally it takes a great number
of employees to carry on this great
business. On February 25, 1927, the
Post Office Department had more
than 851,000 in its employ-—letter
carriers, clerks, rural carriers, post-
masters, and railway-postal clerks.
There are 51,393 postmasters and
each postmaster of course, is in
charge of a post office.
It was a mail carrier who blazed
the first postal route between New
York and Boston. When later the
service was extended to Philadelphia,
it took six weeks to make the trip.
The carrier ventured out only once
in thirty days. When, however, Ben-
jamin Franklin, as deputy postmas-
ter general of the colonies, reorganiz-
ed the service, he inaugurated week-
ly trips. Later a mail coach convey-
ed the mail over the old Boston-New
York-Philadelphia-Baltimore turn-
pike, which was the first great Amer-
ican highway. So successful was
Franklin in operating this post road
for the scattered settlements that he
made it show a greater income than
the principal post road between Eng-
land and Scotland.
As soon as the first railroad tracks
were laid, the Postal Service began
making use of the railroads to carry
mail. It was the demands of the
Postal Service that brought about
the use of night trains on the rail-
roads. In fact, the running of trains
at night, when suggested by the Post-
master General, was vigorously pro-
tested by railroad officials. Operat-
ing trains after dark, they claimed
was unsafe, and their duty to the pub-
lic would not permit it. These first
fast mail trains” were later followed
by fast passenger trains.
Now almost every imaginable kind
of transportation is used to move the
mails—railroads, steamboats, auto-
mobiles, airplanes, motor boats, wag-
ons, horses, pneumatic tubes, belt
conveyers, motorcycles, bicycles and
in the Arctic regions, the sled and
even the “dog car.” It is in this way
that the Arctic mailman reaches a
mining camp out of Nome. An
abandoned railroad runs out of this
camp, and by hitching his dog team
to a hand car the mailman scoots up
the side of the mountain with the post.
It was on May 18, 1918, that the
first air-mail service was started,
and since that time the mail planes
have been extending their service un-
til now there is a transcontinental
route from New York to San Fran-
cisco. Last year the air mail planes
flew two million miles, carrying 62,-
295,920 letters.
And the United States Postal Sys-
-|tem has a few other jobs besides
handling the mails. The biggest sin-
gle business operates the biggest sin-
gle bank in the world, which is the
postal savings. Then there is the
money-order, and insured, registered,
and C. O. D. mail.
People are anxious that certain
mail shall be given every protection,
0 because last year 140,545,000 pieces
of mail were insured against loss.
It takes supplies as well as em-
ployees to run this vast business.
Every year the United States Postal
System uses more than 300 tons of
writing paper, nearly 4,000,000 sheets
of carbon paper, 175,000,000 envelop-
es, and millions and millions of blank
forms of one kind and another. To
write on this vast amount of station-
ery and fill the thirsty ink bottles
from New York to San Francisco re-
quire 70,000 quarts of ink. In addi-
tion to all this it takes 1,620,000 lead
pencils, nearly 6,000,000 steel pens,
100,000,000 paper clips, rubber bands
by the ton and 2,331,446 pounds of
twine. Nearly 120,00,000 mail sacks
are used, and every year it requires
6,000,000 yards of canvas to make
new ones.

CAT BOARDING HOUSE
BERLIN INSTITUTION.
The German Animal Protective
Association, which already possessed
a boarding-house for dogs, has now
added one for cats. At present there
are 56 separate compartments, and
before each one ic a small patch of
ground surrounded by a tight fence
permitting the animals to spend part
of the time in the open.
The funds required for the new
building were contributed by cat-
lovers. Board and lodging cost 90
Pfennings, or about 22 cents a day.
Prices in the dog boarding house run
from 1.35 marks a day up. Both
houses can be heated in cold weath-
er.
WILL FREDDIE FRAME
MAKE THE GRADE.
Following closely in t 3 footsteps
of the late Frank Lockha.{ looms as
a gigantic task for even tie hardest
veterans of the automobile speed
lanes.
Yet that is the achier._:>nt pre-
dicted by his thousands of Pacific
Coast followers for Freddie Frame,
a native son of California, who will
be among the fourteen world famous
drivers lining up for the start of the
200-mile national championship auto-
mobile sweepstakes at Altoona, on
Labor day.
Like Lockhart, Frame emerges
from the coast virtually unknown to
habitual eastern race followers. And
as the late Lockhart reached the
racing pinnacle by consistent use of
a “heavy foot” so Frame bases his
bid for immediate and lasting fame.
Frame has already stamped him-
self as a worthy successor to Lock-
hart who was generally acclaimed
the greatest of the modern school of
drivers, in fact is considered by those
who know, the greatest automobile |
driver of all time. In a dirt track |
event held on the coast just previous |
to the unfortunate accident in
which Lockhart lost his life, Frame
led a field that included not only |
Lockhart but a dozen other of the |
“big time” pilots. At that time the |
racing fraternity recognized the
youth’s driving ability but he could
not interest philanthropic friends in
the wisdom of purchasing a ‘‘speed-
way mount” for him.
But now Freddie Frame is tenth in |
making his bid as a board track pi- |
lot. Though he has driven hundreds |
of miles in test work over the Bever- |
ly Hills and Culver City hoard speed- |
ways, the coming Labor ay race at
Altoona will be his firs. chance at
the big money and champ nship hon-
ors on this type of race course.
Will he “make the grade?” Those
who know him say he will But
board speedways are not dirt or
brick tracks and then there’s the ter-
rific speed—who knows?

WOMEN MORE CAREFUL
DRIVERS THAN MEN.
Women are more careful as auto-
mobile drivers in Pennsylvania than
men. Records of the Bureau of Mo-
tor Vehicles show that while there
are three men licensed to every wo-
man eight times as many male ope-
rators figure in fatal accidents.
On July 1 the State had issued
drivers licenses to approximately 1,-
900,000 operators and of that num-
ber 464,500 had been assigned to wo-
men. During the first half of the
year thirty seven women drivers fig-
ured in fatal accidents, or one to
each 12,550 women registered. The
number of male operators licensed
was 1,435,450.. There were 949 men
connected with fatal collisions or
one to each 1513 registered.
