THE AUGUSTA
HOLIDAYS IMPAIR
RURAL MAIL SERVICE
People in Country Think
Government Ought to
Let Substitutes Take Out
Mail on Holidays.
Spcial to The Herald
COLUMBIA, 8. C.—From people in
various sections who receive their
mail by the hand of rural free de
livery carriers come vigorous com
ulaints against the frequent lapse In
the R. F. D. service because of holi
days. For instance, when a legal holi
day falls on Monday, as happens oc
cassionally ,the people on the rural
routes are without mail from the mid
dle of Saturday until the middle of
Tuesday. The strongest complaints
have come from Anderson county.
The country people do not begrudge
the carriers their holidays, but they
think that if the government wants
to let Its regular carriers rest on
these days, It should put on the sub
stitute carriers in their stead. Each
carrier is required to have a substi
tute competent to perform all his
duties.
The complainants in the matter
point out that instead of any carrier
suffering hy the reform demanded,
the substitutes would actually bene
fit; the regular carrier would get his
usual holidays, as at present, but the
substitute would get more days of
employment. Of course it is dosired
that the government and not the reg
ular carrier should pay the substitute
for his holiday work.

SWEET-TOOTHED THIEF
AROUSES HOUSEWIVES
Takes Full Stock of Jams
aild Preserves and as Far
as is Known “Still Lives”
NEW YORK —A telephone opera
tor in police headquarters was awak
ened by a buzzing of the wires. Plac
ing the receiver to his ear he caught
this message from City Island.
"To all precincts: Look for ten
jars of peaches, ten of strawberries,
five of quinces, fourteen of pears, and
twenty-three of green gages."
"Well. I’ll be jammed,” said the
operator. "Say. lieutenant, you don’t
hope to recover these things, do you?”
“Oh, no,” replied the City Island
man, "but I have to give you this to
preserve our records. Wouldn't that
jar you?”
Seven detectives traveled to City
Island and asked Lieutenant Mangin
for further details. They learned
that in the past two weeks some
body had entered the homes of at
least twenty wealthy summer resi
dents, carrying off any jam thing they
could find.
On last Friday morning one of
these men forced his way into the
home of Henry Du Barros, a broker
living on City Island avenue. There
were seventy-five jars of fruit which
had occupied a whole season in pre
serving, in the kitchen and several
more in the dining room. Also in the
dining room was a quantity of silver
ware worth $5,000. The thief enter
ed the dining room first and brushed
knives, spoons, forks, trays, and pitch
ers to the floor, stamping on a SIOO
server. Then he lighted on a bottle
of peaches and the trail led to others.
He cleaned the house of preserves and
departed.
Mrs. Willetta Bell, of 80 West Sco
field street, and Granville McDaniels,
living on Pilot avenue, were visited
just before dawn yesterday. After
forming an alliance with fortv-flve
jars of preserves in Mrs. Bell’s home,
the burglar departed. He found a
feather mattress in Mrs. Bell’s house
and took it. From Mr. McDaniel's
residence forty jars of quinces and
green gages were led away.
Joe Miner, a fisherman, was going
out on an expedition yesterday, but
he couldn't find his boat. He located
the craft near the bridge leading to
Pelham Bay Park. There were twen
ty-five jars of fruit in it.
“This is a jam shame,” said one
City Islander. “We are not going to
put up with this thing of putting up
fruit and having thieves take it. We
shall hold a meeting some day this
week and organize a vigilance com
mittee. Our slogan will be 'Our pre
serves must be preserved.’ ”
