IMegrate to State Convention-?. S. Over
turf. These officers were elected Tuesday at
the third annual convention of the Potta
wattamie County Rural Letter' Carriers
association. '
Avoca was selected as the place of hold
ins; the nmtt convention, which will be on
Labor day. Since the organlaaton of the
association the meetings have been held
on Washington's birthday, but the conven
tion yesterday decided that the weather In
September would be more favorable for
such gatherings, and a resolution chanc
ing the time of the annua! meeting, from
February 22 to the first Monday In Sep
tember, Labor day, was adopted.
The rural letter carriers held their con
vention In the auditorium of ' the public
library building and, shortly after 1 o'clock,
adjourned to the First Christian church,
where, with the postmasters of the third
and fourth class offices In Southwestern
Iowa, who held their winter meeting In the
rooma'fef the Commercial club, and a num
ber of Invited guests, dinner was served
1n the basnmwt of the building by the
women of the congregation, following
which a decidedly Interesting "good roads"
program w.is carried out.
Major Bids Welcome.
The rural letter carrlwrs were railed to
gether by W. II. James, of this city, presi
dent -of ttje - association. The Invocation
was pronounced by Dr. O. O. Smith, pas
tor of the First Congregational church,
while Mayor Thomas Maloney In one of
his characteristically happy little, talks
bid the visiting carriers welcome. Presi
dent James made the response on behalf
of the association.
President James was strongly urged to
accept re-election,- but he declined. He had
held the office two year tn succession,
and thought It was time he should step
aside In favor of some other member.
"If it It an honor," said Mr. James,
"It should te passed around," If It Is a
burden," others should share It"
Both Avoor. and Council Bluffs were
suggested as locations for the next con
vention, but tfeo Bluffs advocates withdrew
In favor of Avoca, the delegates from
which place assured the association of a
hearty reception and entertainment.
It was, at the suggestion of President
James, that the change in the time of hold
ing the annual convention was decided upon.
The change was unanimously adopted, It
being the sentiment that weather conditions
would be more favorable In the fall, and
would make the conventions more enjoy
able and possibly bring out a larger at
tendance.. Amng those in attendance were a number
of women, n Ives and daughters of the
members and they manifested a deep In
terest In the proceedings, both at the con
vention and In the after-dinner program,
at the- First Baptist church. They wore
the recipients of largs Uoxes of, flowers,
with the compliments of a local florist, the
contents of which was distributed among
them.
President James reported that he had
assumed the responsibility of sending a
tribute of flowers to Bert B. Childs of
Nevada, la., who Is seriously 111 with ty
phoid' fever, and a letter of acknowled
ment and thanks from Mrs. Childs was
read.
As to Salary Raise.
Among several communications read by
the secretary was one from Congressman
Walter I. Smith, replying to a letter of
Inquiry from President James relative to
the prospect of the rural malt carriers
securing an increaoe In their salaries,
awing to the high cost of ' living and of

" I began to have an Itching over ray
whole body about soveu years ago and
this settled in my limb, from the knoo to .

physicians, a matter which cost me a
fortune, and after I noticed that I did
not gel any relief that wny, I went for "
three years to the hospital. But they

that I positivajy lost all hope. -
"I had seen tho advertisement cf the
Cutioura Remedies a great many time
but oould not make up my mind" to buy
them, for I had already uacd so many
medicine. Finally I did decide to use
the Cuticura Remedies and I tell you
that I was never so pleased as when I
noticed that, after having used two set
of Cutioura 8np, Cuticura Ointment
and Cuticura Fills, the entire inflamma

maintaining the horses necessary In per
forming their duties.
Congressman Smith said In his letter he
wss convinced that the rural carriers were
underpaid in view of the existing cost of
living and summarized his attitude as fol
lows: "I am not in favor of a reduction In
the price of food products to the detriment
of the farmers of Iowa, but believe that
the Increased cost of such articles should
be compensated by a relative Increase In
salaries and wages."
A feature of the meeting was an address
by ,R. B. Mundell, assistant superintendent
of the money order and registry division of
the Poslofflce department at Washington.
Mr. Mundell bad previously addressed the
gathering of postmasters. His talk to
both organisations naturally covered much
the samej ground. In connection with the
discussion of the duties of carriers In con
nection with registered mall and money
oiders Mr. Mundell was asked numerous
questions and these questions and Mr.
Mundell's explanations aroused much Interest.
POSTMASTER EXfHA.NT.Ei VIEWS
Officials from Elsjhteea Towns Have
Baslneae Session.
Nasbys from eighteen nearby towns were
tn attendance t the winter meeting of
postmasters of third and fourth class offi
ces In southwestern Iowa, held in this city
yesterday. As the members adjourned at
noon to participate with the rural mail
carriers In the "goad roids" dinner only
a part of the program arranged for the
meeting was carried out.
W. B. Keith of Mondamln, president of
the association, was chairman of the meet
ing and ' was assisted In the business of
the session by L. L. Reynolds of Little
Sioux, secretary. The session was held In
the rooms of tn, Commercial club.
Thomas F. Plumb, postmaster at Silver
City, who was on the program for a paper
on "Some Things I Like About the Posi
tion," declared that being, a postmaster
"put one next" to so many other things
that other people did not know and did
not get a chance to know, and for this very
reason he managed to get considerable en
joyment out of the Job. ) '
R. ' B. Mundell, "assistant superintendent
of the money order and registry division
of the Postoffice department In Washing
ton, in his talk to the postmasters, laid
especial emphasis on the need of uniformity
of office methods. Ten years ago every
postmaster had his own individual system
of keeping the accounts of his office, and
this naturally led to much confusion.
This, however, has been changed, Mr.
Mundell said, since he and others wers
sent out from Washington to visit the
postmasters throughout the country and
to attend meetings and conventions of the
postmasters and Instruct tho postmasters
In methods of uniform accounting. Mr.
Mundell spoke at length on the two de
partments under his charge and explained
the modus operandi.

GOOD ROADS, DINNER II1EHE
Carrier! and Poutmasteri Sear How
to Make Them Better.
DUTY DEVOLVES UPON PUBLIC
Nmmher of Public Mea Guests,
Who . Tell What May Be JOoae
Bad Who Should Do x
, Work.
The need of a. more systematic system
of working the roads and a more careful
expenditure of the local road funds waa
the keynote of the majority of the talks
at the "Good Roads" dinner and program
held yesterday afternoon, under the au
sptcea of the Pottawattamie County Rural
Letter Carriers' association. The dinner
served by the women of the congregation
In the baswment of the First Christian
church of Council Bluffs was all that
could be desired and provsd a thoroughly
enjoyable and Informal gathering of men
who are especially Interested In the bettef
ment f the country thoroughfares.
The speakers were W. H. James of Coun
cil Bluffs, retiring president of the Rural
Letter Carriers' association; 'Joseph W.
Smith, senior member of the firm of Joa
Smith A Co.; of Council Bluffs; Postmaster
-A. H. Haxelton of Council Bluffs; Attor
ney John-M. Galvir. of Council Bluffs; Vic
tor Roeewater, editor of The Omaha Bee;
Colonel W. F. Baker of the board of
county supervisors and Thomas H. Mo
Donald of Ames, stae highway engineer.
After the excellent meal furnished by
the good women of the church had been
satisfactorily disposed of, W. H. James,
retiring president of the county organiza
tion of rural letter carriers, and one of
the most ardent and active advocates of
the good roads . movement, started the
ball ' rolling with a few Introductory re
marks In his capacity as toastmaster. Mr.
James handled the subject without gloves
and declared that the lack of system In
road work In this and other counties was
responsible for -the poor condition of the
thoroughfares during the greater part of
the year.
Debt of the Pmbfla.
"We. look 4o the Postal department for
out monthly salary check, but we look to
the public for business, consequently It Is
the puollc which should furnish the things
with which to do that business, and the
one essential thing is better roads," said
Mr. James.
Joe Smith, who was assigned the sub
ject,, "The Roads as the Business Man Sees
Them," said that he had no hesitation In
stating that all roads leading Into Council
'Bluffs should be Improved and maintained
In the best of condition, but that t.i roads
leading out of the city should be dynamited
and placarded "Leave your money In Coun
cil Bluffs." In a more serious vein Mr.
Smith took the position that the welfare
and prosperity of a community dependod
largely on the good condition of the roads.
"Good roads are a valuable asset to any
community," declared Mr. Smith,
Government at Fault.
Postmaster Hazelton spoke on the sub
ject of "What the Department Expects of
the Roads." He said that without Intend
ing to criticize or cast any reflection on the
powers In Washington, he nelleved the de
partment was as much to blame for the
poor roads as any other element. In his
opinion before establishing any rural route
the department should Insist on the roads
being placed In proper condition and If not
so maintained the route discontinued. "All
the department now asks of the patrons of
these rural routes. Is that they provide
suitable boxes in which the carrier may
deposit the mail without leaving his
wagon," said Mr. Hazelton. He contrasted
the difference between the obligations
placed by the government on a patron out
side the city and one Inside. In a city, he
said, before free delivery is given the
houses must be numbered and there must
be proper sidewalks and other conveniences
for the carriers. He would favor discon
tinuing the service on any route until the
roads were put into passable condition.
"What Effect Does the Automobile Have
on the Good Roads Movement," was the
topic assigned Attorney John M. Galvln,
who explained that he did not own an
automobile and never expected to. He said
he was like the man who sang "Home
Sweet Home," but had no home or like
the man who warbled "Life on ths Ocean
Wave" and had never smelted the salt
breese or seen the ocean. He managed
to tell a few good stories apropos of the
subject 'and paid a tribute to the rural
carriers for their faithful work under
most trying conditions.
National Roads.
Victor Rose water, who was assigned
"National Roads," for hi subject, sx
platned there - were no national roads ex
cept a few leading Into military reserva
tions and the national cemeteries and re
garding the latter he said he was sure the
residents were not looking for the de
livery of mall. He, told of the old national
road known as the Cumberland road,
about $00 miles In length from Cumber
land to Vandalla. 111., but this had long
pasted from government control into that
of the states through ( which It passed. He
explained how ths state of Nebraska was
better off in the matter of the road prob
lem than Iowa, owing to the fact that the
Income from the Inheritance tax was put
Into a permanent road fund. He referred
to the bill now pending In congress which
contemplates annual appropriations to the
various states to be used exclusively In
improving Its roads. After reading some
statistics, concerning the rural mall ser
vice. Mr. Rosewater said:
"I believe we underestimate the influence
of rural letter carriers tn the good roads
movement There are 40,000 rural letter car
riers and 40,000 substitute carriers. I would
rather have their Influence than the 600.000
automobile , owners referred to. bv Mr.
Glavls, who use the roads once In a while
when the weather Is good In the summer
time."
Colonel W. F. Baker explained his sya-
Scrofula disfigures and
causes Hfe-long misery.
.Children become strong
and lively when 'given small
doses of
Scott's Emulsion
every day. The starved body
is fed; the swollen glands
healed, and the tainted blood
vitalized. Good cod, fresh

other blood diseases.
