PARCEL POST
The postman's brow is sad
and stern, the postman's eyes
with anger burn, ho prays with
doleful sound; his heart is full
of woe because he’s loaded
down like Santa Clause each
time he goes his round. What
wonder that his spirit’s sore?
He looks like a department
store that has been placed on
legs, with crates of turnips and
of cheese, and scythes and
forks and bumble bees, and
packages of eggs. To Jones
he brings a crocodile, to Mrs.
Jones a new spring tile, to
Smith a rocking chair; lie car
ries churns and catalogues and
groceries and Shepherd dogs—
oh, brethern, is it fair? Our
postman, who is tired and frail
resembles much an action sale
as he toils up the street, three
cords of junk upon his back,
and you can hear his muscles
crack and mark his aching feet
Obi Uncle Sam should change
(tie rule and for each postman
buy a mule, or else a chug-chug
cart; it isn’t fair to load him
down with all the bric-a-brac
in town and break his honest
heart. The postman’s heart is
full of grief as he conveys r
side of beef, a pitchfork and a
churn, three cuspidors, a phon
ograph, a sawbuch and crated
calf—his eyes with anger burn.

THE IDLE BOYS;
WHO IS TO BLAME?
In two spcific cases in the
Washington criminal court last
week the testimony showed
(hot the young men charged
with offenses against the law
had been boys who were idlers,
without education, without
trades and who had fallen in
(with evil associates and became
(youthful criminals. Their
(stories are not new. The pro
| billion and juvenile officers
will tell you that a majority of
arrests of young men can be
traced to “an idle boyhood, no
education, no trade, bad com
panions, drink.” The story has
become such an old one in the
police court that they look up
on it as a matter of course.
But there is a big problem here
I hat should concern society.
What are the conditions that
(allow a young man to grow up
in a civilized comunity with
these wrong ideals, with total
disregard of the influences ol
