With the greater publicity which has been given the parcel post serv- ice, the business of the local office in packages has been steadily Increas- ing. As the novelty of the idea wears off and as people get into the habit of sending parcels by the poetofflco instead of by express, the volume of business jumps by leaps and bounds. The report of Postmaster Childs for the first fifteen days has been for- warded to the postmaster general and shows that the local office has re- ceived for delivery during that period 3,414 packages, and has sent from this office 1,597. In the local district of Bvanston just six parcels have been sent. The average" weight of the packages has been one pound and four ounces. Of the total number of pack* ages sent about 10 per cent, have been -insured*â€"-----------â€":â- "â-  â-  • ._ Henry Al»earsttB^ Who the beard of directors of the tleuaf ' sign^ bto iq*N*^ among those presented at the ....... of stockholders held op ian. stockholders to irttfrease toe Roarer of directors, and w*^ toe *esigiiatIon: of Mr. Pearsons they haye added as new directors Chaa.

A complaint came m Special Men for Delivering. The insurance does not coyer dam- age in transit, but merely provides Compensation for loss. Consequent- ly it was not possible for a party who sent eggs through the local office, and had them broken in transit, to col? lect insurance to cover the loss. At the present time the delivery of pack- ages is entrusted to special men, who are hired by the hour, as the post- office has not a large enough appro- priation to care for the business in any other way.

He believes that the busi- ness is increasing so rapidly that it will be necessary to have some such means of distribution to care for the traffic properly. To date he has not received any word .from his recom mendation, but is optimistic about the chances for ite adoption, as the machine could be used in ttie collec- tion of mail from mall boxes as well as in delivering parcels.

Association Very Extensive. The state organisation is composed of fire departmenta to over 200 cities in the state. Bvanston haa had a membership for about ten years. The association is partly for the purpose of accident insurance, each fireman who ia a member of the department which belongs to the state association being allowed a certain amount for indemnity in case he is injured while at a nre or in going to or tram one. The association was instrumental to having the state legislature pass the present law^rnicn provides for part of the premium* on nra insurance going to the firemen's pension fund to tha different cities.
