Another large crowd* was in attendance and the interest 

 continued unabated. 



President Gold : The meeting will now please come 

 to order. We have present with us this morning Mr. James 

 L. Cowles, of Farmington. who would like to occupy your at- 

 tention for a few moments. I have told him that we would 

 give him ten minutes. He has some good things to say about 

 reform in the postal service. Please give him your atten- 

 tion for a few minutes. 



Mr. Cowles of the Postal Progress League then made a 

 vigorous and interesting address on postal reforms in the 

 United States and advocated the passage of the bill now be- 

 fore Congress for the establishment of a Parcels Post. Later 

 in the meeting a resolution favoring this bill was introduced 

 and passed by the Society. 



President Gold : We have this morning several mat- 

 ters of business to attend to, and the first thing on our pro- 

 gram is the annual report of the Secretary. Will you give 

 your attention, and we will call for the report of Secretary H.
