WASHINGTON, D. C., July 1.—The first: direct farm-to-the-table medium by way of parcel post is inaugurated to-day In Washington by the installa- tion of a Post Ofice in the Park View School Ruilding. Not only this, but a postal savings bank to encourage thrift is established in the school building. ‘This will also mark the establish ment of the first community centre which includes service in the interest of the people of the district. It is de- signed to secure a direct trading activity between the farm and the homes of this community, and com- munity buying constitutes a part of the programme. Community centres and civic forums in school buildings have long been advocated by The Evening World, which secured legislation for this purpose, in which Miss Margaret Wilson, daughter of the President, co- operated. For this postal purpose $10,000 has been appropriated by Congress, the whole plan to be co-ordinated with the community centre located in this school building, and the Community Secretary, who has been elected by the people, wil! act as both the Post Office agent and the Community Sec- retary, M. O. Chance, Postmaster of the District of Cotumbia, has given approval and promise of co-operation for the carrying out of the plan pro- posed, the plan also being approved by the Principal of the Park View School. LINKING THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND THE PUBLIC SERVICE. ‘This is the first direct link between the Federal Government and the school building in an effort to com- bine the community interest with the Government through the postal facil- ity, The Park View centre has proved 80 wholly beneficial that the commu- nity interests are extended to, include the Post Office In an effort to seoure proper community operation in re- ducing the vost of living and to pro- mote other economic activities, The school authoriti.s, recognising the great use to which the achool house can be put outside vf school hours for the benetit of tha people, have joined in the establishment of the Post Office in this school building. The Post Office idea will likely be extended to eleven other community centres in the district when the ex- periment has been properly developed. Already this community centre has all kinds of civic and war activities, including Red Cross units, Girl and Boy Scout clubs, dancing clubs, community orchestra, canning and cooking demonstrations, basketry and other industrial lessons, language lessons, dc, A large service flag hangs In the hall, and in the words of John G, Me: Grath, Community Secretary, elected times by the people of the want this to be the great American hang-out, and we |nope to make it attractive enough ‘that the responsibility of the people district for its own school house as its common meeting ground will be accentuated.” SECRETARY TREASURER “AGENT OF THE PEOPLE.” | Mr. McGrath, by the way, bears the distinction of being the first Com- munity Secretary elected by the peo- ple. It is to him and his assistant Miss Helen Rarkwell that the neteh. borhood will look to develop the par- cel post system, where purchasi common commodities may be facili ted, Mr. McGrath always acting the “agent of the people” in this con neotion.

QUT “FARM TO TABLE” IDEA WITH AID OF PARCEL POST | to the Board of Education, evidently agreed upon b: ‘The Community Secretary is the pervon in whom, by his election to office, the confidence of the citi zens has definitely and officially been expressed, The service of the local Post Ofiug 4 the agency and of the local postal official as the agent of the Federal employment system are properly to be co-ordinated with the industrial edu- cation work, Which is developing for chidren a well as for aduits in the public school, and to promote which a hational appropriation has been made. This co-ordination may re adily be accomplished by the location of the cal Dost office in the public school building and the tnclusion of the du ties of the local postal official within the functions of the community sec- retary \ “The service of the local post office office and official in promoting thrift | through the increased use of the pos- “AVINES 8) nd the emergency sale of War ngs Stamps requires jfor ite most effective discharge the | oe: ation of this office in a place where |children as well as adults are accun- tomed to gather, and its administra. | tion by & person in official touch witb |the whole membership of the com- munity. The public school building in its two-fold use, for the mstruc- tion of the children and as the ceatre of adult assembly, is this piace, aad community secretary, whose of- correlated with that of the pal of the school, occupies this! position. | “Finally, the duty of extending the use of the pargel post as the medium | of direct farm-to-table trad hich is recognized as so responsibility of the local post office and officials that Congress had made & special appropriation of $16,000 for Investigation and experimentation in this development, obviously can best | be discharged if the post office is io- cated in a place suitable for the or- | ganization of community buying and if the official be a person free from tements 8 body the distraction of @ private business interest he is able to devote his ener- cies wholeheartedly to the national and community velopment. AN AID TO THE GOVERNMENT IN WAR WORK, “For the carefully organized and! service in this de-| important postal service, the public| school house in the use of community | centre * is plainly the appropriate building, the community secretary vccupying the official position best adapted for its proper administration. “Thus it appears that the installa- tion of the loci post office in the pub- lie ‘school bullding will tond to taeit= itate the performance of each of the vital war service functions of the post office and at the same time will| tend to increase the effectivencss of the established use of the public school building both for the instruc- Uon of the children and as the centre | of the community's co-operation in| national service activities, and that the combination of the duties of local | postal official with those of the com- munity secretary will tend to increase the efficiency, on one hand of the pos- tal official service and on the other of the commanity secretarial service, such increase of efficiency in the agency and service through which the citizens may participate in activities designed to contribute to the Nation's strength being obviously of the great- est importance in the face of the| present world crisis. | “In the realization of this great purpose two agencies are needed, one the machinery of our citizenship-or ganization—our organization as the people—the other, the medium of our direct communication without repre sentatives and agents of govern- mental administration. isis: ala ;BRITAIN EXPLAINS TO PERU WASHING Pritain has explai to Peru in a statement issued by the British Min- ister at Lima that the recent delivery to Chili of a number of airplanes was n accord with American principles proclaimed by President Wilson and that the Britivh Government had not believed the act would be misinter- preted Great excitement was caused in Peru recently by the news that military air- t had deen furnished the rival re- public, and Congress was held in ces- sion #t Lima pending developments. ! prmen, France, Capt!
