FOR BETTER MAIL SERVICE There are few public utilities more widely used In any given community cr throughout the entire country than the postoffice. And there is none for the effective operation of which it is more necessary than it is In the case of our mail service that the individual should bav some knowledge of how It Is conducted. Many people think the activity of the postoffice is confined to the collection and delivery of letters and cf postcards, with an occasional parcel thrown In for pood measure. They would be surprised to learn new much of its attention is given over to other lines to the Insurance of mall matter, collect-on-delivery service registry division, and money order and postal savings flyetem. Except that It should reach Its destination as quickly as possibles it is to many of us a matter of little concern as to what happens to a letter when It has been dropped Into the nearest mall box. How many and what kind cf operations are necessary by how many persons before this letter is finally delivered into the next county across three continents, is a question to vhlch;we give very seldom even the slightest thought. .And consequently we do cot give any thought either to the question cf what the sender may do to reduce to 4he least possible amount the work of getting this letter to Its destination. Some day an expert In such matters win calculate

HALCYON DAYS IN VENEZUELA. The people of Venezuela are to be felicitated. Their minister of foreign relations, now visiting the United States, says that country more nearly resembles utopla than any other In the world today. There Is contentment among all classes. Labor trouble; high cost of living, bclshevlsm and high taxes are unknown there. Venezuela did not participate in the war, and prospered greatly while the other nations were fighting. The national income has almost doubled'since 1914 and the national debt has been wiped out. Those of us who feel that the world war wa a struggle to save civilization may have just a little less respect frr Venezula for holding aloof from it. We would think more highly of her if t-he had declared war again&t Germany, as so many of her Latin-American neighbors did, or had at least expressed condemnation of Germany's course by severing diplomatic relations. However, this 1 not to be interpreted as Indicating that Venezuela's peace and prosperity are begrudged her. One is gratified that that country has made eo complete a. recovery from the economic and political maladies from which it was suffering 15 or 2 0 years ago, when Clprl&no Castro was in his heyday. It is to be hoped that Venezuela's present peace- and prosperity are built on a foundation which guarantees their permanence.

The business cf Washington hotels may havo been Lit by the simple inauguration day ceremonies, but the lobbyists probably are making up for that.

In saying one should keep only enough to live on comfortably. John W,anamaker seems to have overlooked getting it as a necessary preliminary.

The most regrettable feature of mob outbreaks like that at Tulsa Is that the guilty individuals nearly always escape punishment.

GUNPOWDER still is regarded as high trump In Europe.
