Cowles of the | Kensington office stated this morn- ing that many of the residents of the town have only a vague idea of | the chahges that have heen made in the postal rates and therefore, he | has prepared a brief report concern- | ing the changes. Under the new law enacted by the | last Congress and made eftective | lo- ed with reference particularly to the expeditious handling and delivery of | parcel post. While this new serviee | is called “special delivery,” it has the effect of making all classes of | mail except first, namely the second ! class mail, the third class mail and the fourth class mail. All have the editions treatment as first | class mail.in transit, plus special de- livery, at the office of the addressee by marking the same “special de- regular gostage, namely: 15 cents | o0 matter mot weighing more than two pounds; 25 eents on matter | weighting more than two pounds but | not more than ten pounds and 35 rents on mafter weighting mor"l than 10 pounds. ! It is necessary to put on the addi- | tonal postage as stated above and mark it ecial delivery.” It is a combination of the former special handling service and the speefal de- livery service. Tt will be seen that the combined service now is cheaper than the sum of the cost of the two former services | Mailers desiring epecial handling service in transit without special de- livery at the office of the addressee may. If they desire, secure this ser- vice at the following rates: 10 cents on parcels weighting not more than 15 cents on parcels weighting more than two pounds but not more than ten pounds and 20 cents on parcels weighting more fhat ten pounds. There is no spectal delivery now which does noticarry with it also speeial handling in transit so that it the majler purchases special de- livery service now as above specified he thereby secures also special handling service, Well Child Conference The Well Child conference in Kengington will be held in St. Paul's T..A.

However, it has been calling the attention of loeal enthusiasts lo several outstand- ing features of this year's team which should bring support more than in any past year. In the first pl; the All-Plain- villes are at last composed entirely of Plainville players. The introduc- tlon of outsiders in past years has been thought te strengthen the team, but it has lessened town pride in the nine. and cut down crowds. Now, of the regular pitchers, every member of the squad is a native of this town. The exception, Dudack, has pitched in the Industrial leaguc here for the past two years and muy almost be considered a local man Then again, with this local line- up. the team has hunz up seven straight victories and has come way into the middle of July without a defeat being registered against it. The opponents have by no means been “set-ups.” and this record shows the caliber of the All-Plain- villes, inally, the past record has heen 50 good that the management fy constantly angling to bring more and important teams here. This Sunday the Lenox A. C. of Walling- ford will tackle Plainville, while the New Britain Talcons and othes teams of that raliber being cought for coming games Personal Ttems Leshe M.
