Parcel I?ohI and Local MorchautJ
There lias all along been a blood
less war waged between the local
merchant and tho large catalogue
houses of tho far-away citics, and
since tho parcel post law became ef
fective tho situation has beconio
more acuto. However, tho odds are
still In favor of the locai . merchants
if they will only seize and improve
their opportunities.
On heavy packages the rate by
parcel post for the 1,000 mile zone

milc zone, which means that it
will cost more than twice as much
