4 THE4 SQUARE DEAL, LANSING, KANSAS, MARCH 16, 1917. HOW TO ADDRESS LETTERS GLEANINGS FROM I HE WOMEN'S WARD. As we turn off the completed task from day to day, we are more and more impressed with the thought that the busy person is the happy one. Our minds are constantly occupied with pleasant thoughts and we find that when hand and brain work in harmony that the hours pass quickly hence we do not covet a life of idleness or ease. Rarely do men and women grasp the formation principles of reform work as Mrs.

Detweiler.of Kansas City and Mrs. Spencer of It was a rare treat to officers and women alike In view of the fact that so many letters have come into the postofflce either carelessly marked, or lacking identification altogether, the following instructions are given: Place your number on upper right hand corner of envelope together with the relationship of person addressed. Place your name, number and the numbers of your cell and division and the wing where you are located on the inside of the flap. Use abreviations for wings, N. for North, S.

for South, B. for East. The following letters may be used to express relationship: Mother M. Friend-Fd. Father F.

Sister S. Brother B. Business Bus. Neice or Nephew N. The relationship to the person you are addressing aud your register number MUST be placed in the upper right hand corner of the front of the envelope, and should be so it can be covered with a stamp.

A good deal confusion results from mailing letters at the postofflce. ALL REGULAR letters should be mailed in the cell house mail boxes. Sleep-outs should also mail their letters at the South Wing, or the cell house to which they, are accredited. It saves confusion, and gets your letters out quicker. Also always sign your FULL NAME to every letter.

If you have packages coming to you, it would be best to advise senders to insure them. Packages, except those insured, cannot be traced either from postofflce or the office from which sent, and insuring such packages would prevent many losses and secure a return of the cost to the sender if they are lost. Persons desiring to send money out should bring a letter in which money is to be sent to the postofflce window. In no case should the payroll be signed and the matter of getting a check into a letter that follows be left to chance. Bring your letter FIRST and then sign up the payroll.

Thus it will be easy to get the letter and check together. It is the ambition of those connected with the prison postofflce to do all possible to secure the best service, both on incoming and outgoing mail. Only conformity with the rules herewith given will make it possible for your mail to be handled speedily. Letters not properly marked will be sent back to cell houses, causing delay. They will continue to be sent back in every case until they are properly marked.

If you no not understand yet how to mark them, ask your officer. Cut this out and keep in your cell for future reference. C. A. TOLMAN, Deputy Warden.

The following show the. front and back of a properly marked letter: to meet, for a short time, these two interested and strong characters. A silent prayer went up from one and all that every lover of reform might have a kindred spirit and that they might be able to impress themselves on ones needing help as these women did. We are constrained again to tell you of our Sabbath School work. Each Sabbath our Bible study seems to grow more intensely interesting.

To the discouraged one it brings hope; to the faltering one courage and strength. Following this service comes our regular chapel exercise. No two hours of the week are more profitably spent i No. 9678 Fd. i i Miss Mary Smith, Our tailor thop a buiy hive, The bunch up there are really-alive, Our Mrtorial artists can't be beat, When it comes to performing a clothing feat.

Our tailor boy teem to thrive, Between machines you'll see them dive, Or dodging hammers a-poundlng soles, On miners shoes shot full of holes. CaptV Burns Is at the wheel, Nothing stirs without his seal, Everyone Is on the hop, In the K. S. P. tailor shop.

Two new men arrived in slsaldom a few days ago. That is they are new to the twine game, as a matter of fact they have been in the city quite a while. Welcome, thrice welcome, hombre's. A fair visitor was over heard telling her male companion that she was sure that the henequin fibre underwent a hydrogen peroxide bath or it would not have such a bee-oo-ti-fool golden hue. Ho hum, such is' the feminine 'mind; The new machine man in shop No.

6 seems to take to the job like a spaniel takes to water Evidently whirring machinery is not a novelty to him, the way he manipulates the oil can shows that the shop has acquired a valuable man. Go to it boy. go to it. Ye clerk suffered a shifting of think stuff the other day. The faithful wheels a cog and precipitated a brain storm.

We keenly feel the humiliation that we so well merit and do here-by resolve that such a stunt shall never be pulled off again. Kismet. Skinner, slid into our midst the other day lend slipped us a valuable tip on the "movies." Thanks, old top. We now know as much as we did before you elucidated the matter. Solid ivory is correct, we are in the has been class.

Pity us, we beseach thee, t'was not always so. "The Ham what am." Has nothing on those delicious smoked ham hocks that we had served with our beans the other day, remarked one of the celebrated 'pork and' devotees. Words of wisdom, brother. We agree with you, those same ham and beans put we'uns in an at-peace-with-the-world state of mind. The tang of said beans seems to linger in we'unses gullet, even yet.

Like Oliver Twist, we dare to ask for more. Wheeler says that the inner parts of man can be likened unto a steam boiler. Pressed for elucidation on the subject, he continued "you see its just like this fellers, when a high grade boiler gets full of scales it falls down on Its steaming qualities. It is just the same with a man, his inards gets scaly and pluged up, then he is on de bum. Calermell is the rekernized treatment, if you don't believe me, ask Fat, he has done a lot of that kind of work." Main Street, Kansas City, Missouri.

than the time given to these two services. No one grows weary. Everyone gives interested and not forced attention. "Let not the heart envy sinners; but be thou in the fear of the Lord all the day long." proverbs 2317. These were the words on which Chaplain Allen based his remarks and he surely made a very earnest appeal.

He emphasized the power of thought showing conclusively that we are the products of the thoughts we entertain. What we are spells character. It is what we are that counts for or against us and the strange thing is that we lay the bricks ourselves. Some of us have not builded wisely. In our dilemma though the Great Master Builder comes to our aid and takes the broken bricks and mortar and relays them cementing them together firmly and strongly all because we felt the need of a Master Architect in the building we could not erect John Smith, Reg.
