How One Building Is Cleaned.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
read with interest the editorial in We'd
nesday's Star referring to the manner in
which public buildings were cleaned On
under the system generally in vogue and
beg tc call your attention to the notable
exception to the rule-the Post Office De-
partment buildings In this city.
Under the administration of Postmaster
General Bissell all appointments of laborers
are made with the distinct understandings
that they are appointed to clean and scour
and are employed the same as house ser
wants. Each laborer is assigned a given
number Of rooms. closets and corridors. and
Is held strictly accountable for their con-
d1tlOn. Failure to satisfactorily perforrn
the work assigned Is deemed sufficient cause
Tor dismissal from the service. Under this
arrangement laborecs are likewise put on
their metal, and vie with each other as m
who shall have the neatest and cIeanest
section.
The work Is constantly supervised by an
employe. selected by reason of his ability to
handle men, and who has a knowledge of
now this class of work should be done Jr
Is frequently inspected by officials even the
POSTMASTER General not being 10th TO criti-
else should any apparent neglect or slight
ing OF work come under his observation.
Under this admirable system the Post
Onice department building and its annexes
rave become models of cleanliness amnne
the public buildings of this city, and the
comfort and health of the employees been
greatly enhanced thereby
