the precious attar distills its
fragranoe in the balmy air: out
of his orchards of purple plums; out
of his silk plantations and his waving
seas 'of tasseled corn; down from his
hilly pastures and. his oak crowned
mountains, the Bulgar has suddenly
strode before the world's astonished
eyes, with the sword of Mars in his
hand and the -wings of victory flut

Like a thunderbolt he has de
mollshed tradition. In two weeks he
has changed the face of Europe. In
one withering campaign he has flung
the shredded banner of the Turk back
upon the trembling cusps of the golden
horn! What all Christendom could
not accomplish in six centuries, he has
achieved before the autumn moon that
shone over his first victory could re
turn again in her circled orb! He has
filled Islam wfth the first terror that
has shivered through its vein since
the cry of "Allah akbar!" began to re
sound under the domes of Santa So
phia. Could even we, looking on across
the ocean, with patience, see him rob
bed of the fruits of his victory? Once
achieved, could any power really rob
him of those fruits?
And who is the Bulgar. this new
phenomenon in the human arena?
The population of Bulgaria, at the
latest census, -was something over four
millions less than ' the population of
the city of New York. Of these,
about three and a quarter millions
are Bulgars. Yet, If reports are not
exaggerated they have put two hun

In addition, the map will be so drawn

These units of area, according to the
law, shall be 30 minutes square
that is, just half a degree square

In addition to the. maps there will
be a parcels post guide. In this guide
will be printed the regulations govern
ing the parcels post system. Every
detail will be covered not only for
the information of the public but also
for the postal employes. Before the
regulations are issued every system in

this information, business men rep
resenting every class of business en

representatives of every phase of busi
ness now carried on in this country
are aiding in the preparations ef the
regulations.
Appropriation Too Small.
Why congress appropriated only
3750,000 for the new service, when the
' cost of 70,000 scales required will be
from $300,000 to 3400,000, and the pur
chase of necessary wagons, rental of
storage space and employment of ex
tra labor will many tiroes exceed
that sum. is a puzzle.
It will be necessary that additional
appropriations be made at the session
of congress beginning next December
in order that that the parcel post may
be carried on efficiently until the
funds of the next fiscal year become
available on June 30. Already post
masters all over the country are mak
ing contracts for the hiring of, wagons
and automobiles for the local delivery
service.
Postmaster general Hitchcock says
the service will start efficiently and
promptly. How long it can continue
after January will depend on congres
sional appropriations.
There are approximately 62,000 post
offices in the United States. All of
them must be equipped to handle
the postal parcel business."
