Personal and Social.

Philadelphia. visited friends in Elkton this
week. We have to thank him for a finely
illustrated copy of the official handbook of
the Philadelphia L anch of the National
Association of J. It Office Clerks which con-
contains a GOOD portrait of Mr. Mcfarland,
who holds n cierkship in the Philadelphia
office. He is an experienced postal officer.
He was a pointed to the service in 1869 under
the late Postmaster General Creswel, and
after attaining. by reason of faithful service,
a superintendent position, was reduced to
a clerkship under the Cleveland adminstra-

former position, which we hope to see him
secure.
