PACKAGE MAIL LIMITED.
Packages cannot be sent to soldiers
overseas without their special request
for certain goods, approved by a ma-
jor or higher commanding officer, ac-
cording to an announcement gy the
postoffice department. Five hundred
thousand pounds of such mail matter
have been received in Prance each
week and the trains cannot handle the
load. Nearly all of this has been un-
necessary mail, and much of it use-
less. In speaking of the unusual sit-
uation, the Official Bulletin says:
"The regulations now in effect,

Class One Week Observed this Week;
Dependent Parents Claims respon-
sible for Many Exemptions.
The local board has named this
week "Cla^s One Week" in conform-
ity with recent orders of the adjutant
gnral and provost marshal general,
and are busy reclassifying registrants
who are no longer eutitled to defer-
red classification under new rulings of
the war department. The board has
carefully watched men who might de-
serve to be reclassified and placed in
one and have reclassiiied many into
that division.. But they had not yet
started reclassification of men who
were given deferred classification be-
cause of dependents outside of wife
or children. In this regard, the ntl-
reads

In speaking to Chief Clerk T. T.
1 Warren, of the local board, he said "I
may go to the army," in such a way
as to let him understand that it was
within his power to dodge army serv-
ice if he so decided. He said that he
did not consider that he owed this
country anything, that the soil was
all right but the people were "hell"
on him. He said that he had done
many kinds of labor but was a "far-
mer by trade."

Supreme Court Justice Gives Basic
Principles of Democracy in Lesson
to Royalty.
The following is an extract from an
article in the Frederick Daily Leader
of last Thursday, regarding a lesson
to royalty administered by Judge
Rutherford Brett of Cordell:
"Ah, ze gran' prince, he ees Mar!"
But a prince does not rank higher
than a pauper or a pagan or a priest
in Frederick. This fact was firmly im-
pressed upon a member of the royal
family of Mesopotamia wherever that
is, in the lobby of the Kelly hotel
Thursday morning by a no less august
personage than the Hon. Rutherford
Brett, associate justice of the supreme
court of Oklahoma, V- S. A., and a
Democrat. f
Aiding and abetting Judge Brett, as
they say in the courts, were R. M.
Kelly, who wields a broom or a paint-
brush or a lien with equal dexterity,
and a few other choice Democrats.
"I want somebody to wait on me. I
am a prince and cannot wait on my-
self," Prince Emmanuel is alleged to
have exclaimed when he insisted that
some attendant of the hostelry be
assigned to cater to his whims and
wishes.
When it was explained that the ho-
tel is virtually attendantless. that the
attendants now patriotically apply the
hoe A ntlle crusade against the luxuri-
ant weeds in the cotton patch as
war measure and that even a prince,
be he from Mesopotamia or Pilsen or
Monte Carlo, must help win the war to
the extent that he must struggle ajong
without even a valet, much loss a re-
tinue of servants to come at his beck
and call, the prince was quite wrathy,
it is said.
Emmanuel asked to have someone
show him to his room and attend him.
Mrs. W. rf. Kelly proprietor of the
hotell, explained that all her help and
been sent to the cotton patch, and that
she would tell him where his room
was and he could find it, like other
guests .were doing in the emergency.

The deferred classification of onn
son of a family because other sons of
the family were called is not warrant-
ed and will not be supported.
The adjutant genera! asks that the
reclassification be cojnpleted as early
as possible, and makes die following
suggestions:

in fact, urged to keep himself in the 1,
most efficient condition posisble, so
that his body and mind can give the
maximum service. That necessarily
means the use of goods and services.
But there is a vast difference be-
tween using only those goods and ser-
vices' necessary to keep us in prime
physical and mental condition and in
using goods and services that we do
not need.
And the reason we should restrict
our buying to the things needed is
that we cannot use materials and la-
bor the way we did before we entered
the war and at the same time have
enough labor and materials with
which to win the war.

The. doctrine of "goods and serv-
ices" about which we have read a
great deal the last few months is one
to which we can all heartily sub-
scribe. It is also ono which we can
easily make clear to those of our
friends to whom it. is newr.
A homely saying is, "You cannot eat
go into your cake and have It, too." This
laying explains ln a few words the
idea of the doctrine of "goods and
services."
We cannot go into the markets and
bpy and use goods of any kind find at
the same time leave those goods for
war purposes. We cannot have labor
ork for us as individuals and at the
same time have that labor available
for the use of the Government to help
it to fight the war.
Every time we buy goods, every
time we* use labor, we compete with
the Government.
It makes no difference that the goods
may be the kind not used by the Gov-
ernment. If the goods bought by us
are manufactured articles, certain raw
materials are needed for their pro-
duction. If the goods bought by us
are raw materials, then we are tak-
ing from the markets things that the
Government can almost certainly use,
for there are, Indeed, few raw mater-
ials hot used in some branch of waIt
industry. Moreover, everything
buy must be tansported in some way,
and adequate transportation is vital
to the speedy production of war goods
and to the rapid movement of troops.
It makes no difference that the la
bor we employ for our personal use
is labor not directly available for war
needs. The men who work for us may
[not make soldiers or sailors; but

Thereupon Emmanuel threw out his
chest, gesticulated grandiloquently,
and said, "No. The doors of the world
are open to me. I come to America
to spend my money for pleasure only.
I can go and come where I please.
I'm a prince."
Thereupon Judge Brett, fired to the
limit, exclaimed, "We don't have any
