SERVICE PROMOTED
BY THE PARCEL POST
Exhibits by the Government
'at More Than 100 State
and County Fairs Prove
Utility of the System.
Imovt atait connEsroNDEvx.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-Exhlblta of
the farm-to-table service of the parcel
post system have bcn made by the Gov
ernment at more than 100 State and county
fairs. As a result of this campaign of
advertising. Postmaster General Burleson
reports the public Is hastening to em
brace an opportunity to obtain cheaper
and better farm produce. The now sys
tem was Introduced In Philadelphia on
October 1
County fairs at Allcntown and York,
fa., refused to grant space to the Gov
trnment for these exhibits. Displays have
ben made, however, at eight county fairs
In Pennsylvania this autumn with tho
following results:
Bellefontc "Postmaster thoroughly Im
pressed with the wisdom of the move and
the method of demonstration. Tho re
mits are -worth the effort."
Carlisle "Fair ofTlclnls co-operated will
ingly and the display has stimulated In
terest" Indiana "Wldo attention attracted and
the exhibit was unanimously voted a
gre&t success."
Hollldaysburg "More than 21,000 visitors
pronounced tho exhibit valuable."
Montrose "Exhibit highly beneficial,
fair officials and business men Joined
In helping to arouse public interest."
Pcading "More than 100,000 people dis
played keenest Interest in the now op
portunities which tho exhibit called at
tention to."
Somerset "Manufacturers and mer
chants co-operated energetically and a
decidedly credltablo and Interesting ex
hibit was prepared."
Towanda "Exhibit a. great success.
Exceptional interest was manifested by
tho women. Women is the medium by
which the parcel post will win Its way
to farm and suburban households."
Reports from New Jersey are more
than flattering on tho postal exhibit
shown at the Newark Industrial Fair and
at tho Trenton Interstate Fair. Of the
latter, tho Postmaster General Is ad
vised that "merchants nnd manufacturers
were more, than pleased at tho depart
ment's co-operation In bringing the pub
lic Into closer touch with them through
the medium of a practical demonstra
tion of how to use the parcel post,"
A statement Issiicd by tho I'ostofneo
Department declares that "Postmaster
General Burleson's suggestion that post
masters the eiKlntry over Join in giving
the public ocular demonstrations of the
advantage and the best methods of using
tho parcel post has been adopted on a
huge scale."
Hundreds of letters in reply showing
tho widespread adoption of the plan havo
been received by tho Postmaster General.
Interest In the farm marketing feature
of tho parcel post has becomo so general
that the Poatutllre Department has been
compelled to print S00.000 additional copies
of tho parcel post circular recently
Issued.
In exhibits mado at the fairs promi
nence Is given to samples of the ap
proved types of containers for the trans
mission of perlshablo farm producls
through the malls. Experience shows,
Postotnco Department ofllrlals say, that
much still remain? to ho done by way of
Impressing upon the farmers tho neces
sity of properly picking food shipments
In suitable containers.

CHILDREN'S CORNER
Nicknames
I call my mother "Mudgic."
My father is just "Daddy."
And nursies always "Kudgie,"
But Katie is her name.
And Theodore is "Teddy."
And every little laddie.
When called for short, is ready
To answer just the same.
And though my name is "Edward,"
They do not use it often:
'Less I cry at going bedward
Or show my spunky B"'M.
But when I'm nice and sunny.
Their faces quickly soften;
Then mother calls me "Honey,"
And daddy calls me "Bill."

NCE upon a time some fairies remarkable part is that you don't
"lived in a birr cornfield how
does anybody know they lived
there you ask? Wait and seel
They started living there in the
ummer when the corn stalks were
fresh and green.
Then dainty little daisies and
'lovers strayed among the cornstalks
"hugs and beetles crawled over the
corn roots, and many interesting
things happened every day.
Altogether, the fairies considered
'hat, next to the forest, a cornfield
was the very nicest place to live, and
they decided to live there forever.
Then came the frosts, the cold
inds and the snows anj tne poor lit
tle fairies, taken unawares, hardly
knew what to do they weren't used
to cold and snow and ice and they
didn't like them a bit.
"Let's ask the beetle," said one
he s very old and very wise. Maybe
n can tell us what this queer coldness
means.
So they hunted up their friend the
beetle.
"Please, Friend Beetle," they said,
Jn you tell us what this awful cold
""J means?"
fin'1' biiites our noseS and stings our
"ners! added one who thought they
hd not told enough.
i u,'.?f.i co,ur". I can tell you," an-
vlnter" PIeasanUv' "' is
,,3i!l,ef ' , ?Iow remarkable," ex
c'i'raed the fairies.
. ot. remarkable at all," said the
B to a matter of fact voice, "the
know about it where have you lived
before this?"
"We lived in the Southland." an
swered one fairy, "and we have never
even heard of winter."
"Well, welll" pondered the beetle,
"I have never been out of this corn
field, yet I know all about winter."
"Then maybe you can tell us if it is
always cold like this?" asked a fairy.
"Yes, it is," answered the beetle.
"It's cold and windy and stormy and
snowy and oh! everything," he add
ed ominously.
"That doesn't sound very pleas
ant," said a fairy.
"Oh, it's not so bad," comforted the
beetle, "not so bad you find a snug
comfortable home. I go down into
the ground down to where it is nice
and warm and I don't mind the cold
winter a bit."
"I wish we had a warm home," said
the fairies.
"Wishing don't get one. Why don't
you hunt5" asked the beetle.
"We will!" said the fairies.
They set to work and found a snug
little home under the stiff corn roots
and there they hid all winter.
And on warm days when the winds
from the Southland blow, they slip
out from their shelter and frolic and
sing among the big corn stalks.
Some day when you pass a corn
field and a breeze is blowing, stop and
listen to the rustle rustle swishl
That's the sound of the fairies talk
ing to the breezes, the sound of the
fairies singing of their Southland
