Poatofllco Mil-Phonetle
' Principles Applied.
Vaarly 1,000 letters or other pieces of
mall matter bearing defective addresses
reach the New York postoffice every day,
and tbe .correct addresses are found for
more than 85 per cent of tbem. Most of
the work Is done' by three or four men,
relates the New York Sun, the lion's share
falling to Otto O. Meager, chief clerk of
tbe department.
A letter thus addressed by a Joker
reached Mr. Menger'a desk a tew years
ago: "Stan In the Postoffice, North Lemon,
Old Sweater." Mr. Menger was mystified
for time, but suddenly It struck him that
the address, read according to the prin
ciple of contraries, would yield "South
Orange, New Jersey." "Stan," who wai
s clerk In tbe ffostofflce there, got tbe let
ter the next day.
"Among the Clouds, N. H.," was another
tddress of the catch variety. It reached
Ita destination at Mount Washington with
out any particular loss of time. "Holy
Ana" was the direction on a letter which
waa delivered to a resident of Olean. Cat
taraugus oounty. "Holl Erie Co." was
easy. It waa meant for Holland, a village
A abort distance out of Buffalo.
But the addresses devised by the funny
men are really tbe easiest that the blind
readers bare, to deal with. It la the for-aign-wrlttea
addresses that make trouble.
The almost universal method of solving
tbe mystery Is by dissecting and analyzing
(be scrawl according to phonetio prin
ciples. "Istochlnchistommo" appeared on a let
ter that confronted Mr. Menger a few days
ago. It bore as Italian stamp and the
aaaie of an Italian. That was all the Mind
reader required. After a moment's study
he redirected the letter to East Kings
ton, N. Y.
ftoaso Tone's Problems.
Not less remarkable waa the transla
tion of "Spltal Carutln Hapnn Harland"
Into Quarantine Station, Hoffman Islsnd.
Similarity, under the searchlight of the
oiU4 ra4or'a Uliiinlnsllag Wain, "Soe-
cloples" became Scotch Plains; "Sayrosa,
Pa.," 8hlreoaks, Pa; "Slrlano street Toms
ville," Sarsh Ann street, Tompklnsvllle,
and "Bodofel, N. Y.." Board of Healtb. New
York City.
A tougher problem. In some respects
than any of the above, because It called
Into play other abilities of the blind reader
than merely bis power to read phonetically,
was presented Wy 'Styl.men atrit, nombrs
falf." Mr. Menger sent this letter to 5
Stlllman street, Boston. The name on the
envelope was Jewish, and. the blind reader,
knowlngthat Stlllman street was a short
one In the Bean City's ghetto, sent the
letter there.
A letter bearing the postmark of an ob
scure town In Hungary came to the Inquiry
department recently. The face of the en
velope at first glance left the Impression
that the writer had been practicing at
making tbe letters of the Engllsfi alphabet,
setting tbem down at random as tbey oc
curred to him. The characters were all
carefully printed with a fine pen. What
appeared was something like this:
.
: Tek Rivedelemsgsr :
: loth Janos t
: Epltessurnatlsxtellettel
: Nevlork Janca Amerlka s
; ;
After considerable thought the blind
reader concluded that this letter w in.
tended for some one In Rlverdale avenue,
Yonkera. His guesa proved to be correct.
Tanalrd Spells.
One writer who wanted to send a letter
to Coifs Neck wrote It "Cold Snake." An
other wrote "Dutch Johnunn" fur riiihoM.
Junction. Still another addressed a letter
to "Arsenic," which ile really Intended for
Osslnlng. Lakewood has been written
"Liquid," and on one occasion at least a
man who wanted to send a letter to Presi
dent Roosevelt at bis summer borne wrote
the address "Lobster Bay."
Some blind addresses are hopeless, as for
Instance;
the explanation was this: The person ad
dressed, a newly arrived Immigrant, had
In a previous letter written at the close a
tew words of English to show off hla ready
absorption of tbe language of his adopted
country. Tbe correspondent abroad mis
takes this for the American address and
carefully copies it. A famous example of
this sort of mistaken addresses arrived at
tbe postoffice a few years ago and now oc
cupies an honored place In Mr. Menger's
scrap book. It read.

For a long tlirie the blind readers were
unable to fathom the reason for such ad
dresses, but It at laat dawned oa ibeas that

Here are a few more of the same type:
"if et dont go thlere please bring 11 tome
P. F. Golnuen America," "Miss Ida Johnson

amerlka" and "This bandswrltlng Is on
offyour brothers daughter his name Is
Simon Galltsky America Br. Aneupky."
One day last week Mr. Monger got a letter
with Chinese characters on one side of the
envelope and this by way of address on Its
face: "Tang ho, Wishes to Inform the
public that he baa opened a first-class Hand
laundry, 202 George street." This letter
was delivered to a New Haven Chinaman.
A couple of addresses that were not only
blind, but perhaps might be said to be deaf
and dumb Into the bargain, were: "Mr.
Thoa. Clancy, New Jersey, United States
America," and "Mary Murphy, America."
The writer of the letter to Mr. Clancy
wrote In a large hand clear across the face
of the envelope: "This Address Is correct."
"Miss Anne O'Brien, 27 Bridge Street, M.
N." was an address that would have been a
poser to most people. Mr. Menger solved
the mystery by a process of elimination.
He reasoned that tbe M. of the address
stood for the name of the town and tbe N.
for that of the state. Working on this
hypothesis he found that tbe only state be
ginning with N and having a town of any
slie beginning with M which contained a
Bridge street was New Hampshire. And
the town Itself was Manchester. So the
letter waa sent there and Miss O'Brien
wss found.

cational Notes.
The board of education of New Tork City
la endeavoring to reach a conclusion on
plans for a sky-scraper acboolhouse of
eight or ten stories submitted by the chair
man of the committee on buildings. Tbe
project Is such a radical departure from
the tlme-bonored custom of limiting the
height of a schcolhouse to four, or, at tbe
most, five stories that many of the mem
bers have been simply dumfounded at the
boldness which characterized the new plan.
The proposition, which has created quite
a sensation In educational circles, reports
the New York Times, was made by Com
missioner Lummta, who Is chairman of tbe
committee on buildings ef the board. It Is
for the erection of an eight or ten story
schoolhouse of the most modern and ap
proved steel skeleton construction on tbe
site of the old Essex market on Grand
street, between Ludlow and Essex streets.
Thla lo In the heart of the Ghetto, where
tbe housing of the rapidly Increasing school
population Is apparently an unsolvsbls
problem.
I'pon this site It Is proposed to erect tbe
educational "skyscraper" projected by
Commissioner Lummls. The building would
be In every sense a scholastic, counterpart
of the great office buildings In tbe lower
portion of the city, would be aa fire-proof
as human Ingenuity could make It, and
would bave elevators espable of transport
ing a whole class of children at one trip
Tbe erection of such a building Is regarded
by Commissioner V.ummls as an economy,
as classrooms to accomraodsts 6.000 chil
dren could be put on property which. If de
voted to the ordinary four or five story
schoolhouse, would furnish accommoda
tions for 1,600 children only.
The opposition to the plan wss centered
In tbe difficulty of handling 5. 00 J children
under one roof. It was contended that in
case of Ore or other excitement It would
not be possible to dismiss the pupils as
speadlly and without creating a panic as It
la aaw la khe amaJler acfcaela uaoar the
system of "fire drills," or rapid dismissals
as they are technically called.
tossd Mlnda In Sound Bodlea,
Commenting upon and commanding tbe
intention of the new Teachers' college of
New York City to educste its matriculants
In the rules of health so that they may
impart the knowledge to their pupils, tbe
editor of American Medicine says:
"It la not merely the rulea of hygiene
that are needed, nor the ordinary courar
In school physiology. Personal hygiene Is
applied physiology, but a proper under
standing of certain elemental truths of
human physiology must be acquired be
fore tbey can be aj. plied. Knowledge of
the normal functions of the body and the
simple methods of keeping tbem In healthy
action Is the one thing that no educated
person should be excused from possessing;
yet most of our children reach maturity
without parental or scholastto Instruction
In tbe most elemental matters of health."
It dees seem strange w.h all our edu
cational progress that wa are over the
threshold of the twentieth century before
this addition to our school curriculum Is
made, comments the New York Press.
Herbert Spencer In his "Essay on Educa
tion," put the query, "What knowledge
is of the most worth?" forty years ago,
aud bis answer should be written In let
ters of gold on tbe walls of every school
house in the land: "As vlgoraiw health
and accompanying high spirits are larger
elements of happiness than any other
things whatsoever, the teaching how to
maintain tbem Is a teaching that should
yield In moment to no other whatever."
These words ars as true today as when
they were uttered by the author of "Prin
ciples of Physiology." It was one of tbe
many Illustrations of his wonderful per
spicuity, and deserves tbe earnest consid
eration of every educator. The Teachers'
college bas made a long stride In advance,
and it may be followed with general profit
by the entire publlo school system of tbe
country.
Consolidation of Seuools.
Prof. Alfred Baylies, superintendent of
public Instruction of Illinois, Is an en
thusiastic supporter of the policy of merg
ing small country schools into one modern
school and tbe uss of carryalls to transport
children to and from the centralised sthiol
bouse. Prof. Bsyliss admits tbat the
scheme Is not likely to find favor wltb tax
payers, not because It would Involve In
creased tsxes, but bocause tbe present sys
tem nf school management must be up
rooted and centralised. "The reduction of
the number of districts in each township,"
i be said, "would In many. If not meat, easrs
I lead to the consolidation of all tbe
shoeis, Lae org aoiaaxloa ef a grades acoool
and tbe establishment of a high school de
partment In every township. If,' beoauee of
bad roads or other causes less real, a town
ship does not choose to ronsolidato all of
tho schools In one building, then at least
the older children could be brought to
gether In a central school, and given thi
advantage of compansonsbtp and associa
tion with others of their own ag?."
Tbe township high school Is one of the
prime results aimed at by the proposed
change. There Is provision for township
high schools In the Illinois school laws, but
as long aa the district system prevails there
Is little prospect of tbe opportunity being
utilised. The new system. It Is believed,
would bring tbe township high school Into
existence all over the state. "There ought
to be." aaya Superintendent Baylies, "with
in reach of every farmer's child In Illinois
a country school tbat should be worthy
a place on the accredited Hat of the atate
university as tbe city schools that now
make up that list. It ought to give as good
quality of Instruction In mathematics and
science and language and literature as thn
city high school."
As to the effect of centralising the com
mon schools of tbe township, he says:
"Our present system hat served Its purpose.
It no longer meets the requirements.
Under It the county superlntendency Is
shorn of half Ita strength. Proper class
ification of pupils, superior Instruction, the
development of teachers are alike impos
sible. The advantages which come from
comparison, competition, organisation, ex
ample, criticism, correction, oversight, co
operation, all those things which differ
entiate an organised school from a group of
girls and boys whose varied ages and at
tainments prohibit organization or econom
ical Instruction, are all conspicuous by
their absence."
City and Coaatry.
From all of which It would appear that
President Eliot of Hsrvard Is not so far
wrong wben be says that tbe educational
system of this country Is capable of vaat
Improvement. Superintendent Bayllaa at
tributes the decay of the country school to
the great and growing movement toward
the towos and cities, and hs baa some pro
nounced views as to tbls movement as a
cause of which there are likely to come
many serious effects. "Society is moving,"
he says. "The city school, for reasons I
need l:ot stop to recapitulate, la keeping
up wltb tbe procession. The country Is re
enforcing and regenerating the city with ite
best blood. The movement Is not new, but
It Is continuous and accelerated. Tha ele
ments which destroy the population it
cttles will operate In the future aa In tbe
past. Ws are proud of the fact tbat tbe
ssajorltr at tfce grsat men this oouutry has
produced come from the farms, and It wllf.
be a most serious mistake to even seem toJ
encourage the Idea that success In llfajfj
possible only to those who leave tbem.
Food, clothing and chcltor are the funds
mentals of civilization, and this Is an agri
cultural nation. We talk of the learned
professions. Mind Is no more the dominant
factor in them than In scientlflo agricul
ture. The country boy must be made to
know and to feel thla. The way to do It Is
to Improve country homes, schools and so
cial life. Of the factors which make for
this Improvement tbe school Is not the
least. Tbe taxing unit for schools ahould be
so changed that Just as good schools, hav
ing aa well paid teachers, as good libraries,
as good debasing clubs, as much architec
tural beauty, as beautiful grounds, ean be
provided In rural as In urban communities,
and that thesb schools should be colored
with those things which will bring them
Into sympathetic knowledge of their en
vironment and Its possibilities, anil lead
tbem up and out of tha atmosphere of mere
drudgery Into the sunlight of aspiration
and hope in plain words, to give them
what tbey do tot now bave, a fair chance."
