Fifty years ago this week-Norwich had its hotest day in twenty years. The thermometer. went above the 100 mark twice during the week, and there were several cases of sunstroke, one man dying from this cause. The an- nual declamation contest at the Nor- wich Free Academy took place the same week. Gleanings from the Bulletin files of '66 follows: July 16, 1866,—The following addi- tional contributions: to the fund for the aid of the Portiand sufferers are acknowledged by Mayor Blackstone: Edward Chappell, $50; L.

At a meeting of the Sabbath school of the Central Baptist church on Sun- day, John L. Denison, superintendent of the school, who has just returned from ' Portland, made an _interesting statement of the conditions of affairs in the burnt city, stating among other things, that the First Baptist church of that city was consumed, and the 147 members of the church were left home- less by the destruction of their resi- dences. The school vpted fo forward $100 2s a contribution for their relief. Hottest Day of the Season. July 17, 1366.—Monday was the hot- est day of the season yet, and accord- ing to the old weather observers, the hoiest day that has been in Norwich for twenty vears.

July 19, 1366.—Subscriptions for the Portland fund received Wednesday fol- lows: Jerediah Huntington, $23; Sam- uel Gordon, $5; cash, $5; previously subscribed, $860; total, $395. The annual _declamation for the prize medal at the Norwich Free Acad- emy came off on Wednesday afternoon. There were but four confestants, all of whom did remarkably well. Though there was little of it, the speaking amply rewarded those who attended, and we must confess to an agreeable surprise, shared by all present in find- ing the exercises to be of such an in- teresting character, and so much su- perior in quality to those generally heard on such occasions.

William L. Wilson was the father of rural deliv whose benefits no one can fully describs, for it is withou question the most popular administra- e measure of the government. For| years there had been a growing dis- | content among farmers and the people | in the smaller towns at the postal ad- ntages afforded the cities and the| ore populous communities. They felt themselves deprived of the opportuni- | ties and benefits which others enjoyed, | the desire for recogrition was out- ken and insistent and could no longer be denied. On June 9, 1896, the | sum of $40,000 was made available, and on October 1, 1896, the first expe: rural _delivery was put into| operation in Jefferson County, West | Virginia. Service was established on | three routes simultaneously, one from | Charles Town, one from Uvilla, and| one from Halltown. | At the close of business Jun e30,]| 1915, there were in operation from 18,873 postoffices throughout the coun- try 43,877 rural routes. Up to and in cluding June 30. 1915, 26,030 post offices were discontinued on account of the establishment of rural delivery, rep- Tesenting a saving to the postal ser- vice of $1,513,000 per annum and also a saving of §3,452,000 on account of the discontinuance of star-route service. The period of greatest activity In the raral servics was from 1900 to 1905, the appropriations running from $450,000 in 1900 to $21,115,000 in 1905. Steps to Extend the Service. This_administration has recosnized | the value of the postal service to the| Deople to a greater extent within the past three years than for any similar | period during the last decade. AMail facilities have been established and extended on mall Toutés in more than ten thousand localities, giving service to approximately 2,500,000 patrons heretofore denfed this benefit. _ Six hundred and fifiy-elght thousand fam- ilics were added to the list from April 1913, to April, 196, The elimination of uscless and wasteful methods have made it possible to do this and also pay out $4,000,000 more to employees at an ectual increased cost of less than $1,500,000 per annum.

What Rural Delivery Has Accom- plished. The al delivery is indeed a boon to the country. ‘Its measureless ad- | vantages can not be estimated, nor eed the cost of maintenance be con- sidered, for it has broadened the field of industrial opportunity, touched s if with magic power the possibilitie of human endeavor, and transformed ous. It has broug rinted page, the great educator of civil daily to the home has brought spec delivery almost to the door cured good roads and ma | by official interest and concern attracted the attention of the V: states to this question and ob results; it has made farm lands more Croquet Club Accept Ghallenge— Personals and Notes. The trolley which leaves Franklin square at 3.45 p. m. for Jewett City { Friday afternoon ran off the track about 200 feet scuth of Tafts station. The heavy rain late Friday afternoon | had washea considerable sand over the rails and the car ran up on the {dirt and off the track. The forward truck of the car left the rails. The carefully made, developed irregulari- ties_which meeded correction and the application of the just and equitable | rules of proper administration tempor- | arily inconvenienced some and per- | haps gave rise to criticism in others, it was but an incident to all reform- atory processes and could be expected to disappear when the wider benefits sought and the greater advantages to| be obtained made the object and the | purpose clear and justified the wisdom | of the action taken. For instance, if, | Dby the change of conveyance and the rearrangement of routes, more and Dbetter service could be given, should it not be done? Whenever and wher- ever such chandes have been made it | has been found possible to extend service to additlonal patrons hereto- fore denied this accommodation—from from 500 to 1,000 in numberf. Surely the slight delay it might occasion to one or several patrons should meet with little or no objection whenit was shown that this had been the means of obliging many others with at least a single delivery who previously had | none whatever. In the nature of things, the great desire of the people to obiain a bene- fit which its government could provide | and the willingness of the government | to give it and give it rapidly, condi- ! tions would develop which démanded | both_ attention and consideration. If, | e cerwa b tion that by careful inquiry more could be accomplished than was be- ing rendered, it was, clearly the duty | of those in control to investigate con- | ditions with a view to possible bet- terment. “The greatest good to the greatest number” must ever be the motto of wise and successful admin tration, and officials can only hope to win public approval when such motto governs their administrative acts. The Policy and Purpose. It has been the policy and the pur- pose of this administration to make of the rural delivery and its partner in public benefit, the parcel post, all that its most sanguine projectors hopea to accomplis] The postmaster general is deeply interested in both, and has used to the utmost the great powers of his office and his personal influence as well to promote in every possible way these two great factors in our national life. He wants the man away from the greater advantages of commercial opportunity to have an equal chance with his more favored | brother in the cities, and gain for his industry, whatever it may be, the full- est measure of benefit that govern- ment can bestow. To this end the ene of the Department have been directed, the est counsels sought, and the greatest personal attention given. As important postal centers provide an easy market for the pro: ducts of the farm and the rate of pos. tage is reduced by the extension of local zones, motor delivery was es- tablished, whereby exchange was sumer, and both alike benefited. De- livery ‘zones from these important cen- ters will be, and have been, doubled; still others established, and the fami- lies “tributary to these centers thus enabled to take full advantages of this enlarged opportunity to market the products of their industry to the best advantage. The administration expects to great- 1y widen and still further improve this public benefit and advantage until all sections and all localities where ru- ral service can be made operative shall have these conveniences afford- ed them and have them generous! maintained. Petitions for service ary no longer neces: The recomm dation of the p an Spector who ‘oes over the ground, and if service can be made at all fective, it will at once be given. No considerations of administrative econ- omy, no mere of money by miserly methods or parsimonious pro- cess, to stand in the way of any | benefit which the rural delivery can give or wise public policy can sanc- tion.
