gence and incompetency, but calmly
and firmly declares his intent and aim
TO discharge his duty faithfully or
makes no reply whatever if it is case
where silence is the best answer.
The model or ideal country postmas-
ter keeps his office as neat and order
ly as possible. If he posts up in his
lobby request that there be mo
smoking he does not neutralize the.
good results of this request by him
self smoking inside the Office.
The ideal postmaster is never heard
using profane or indecent language
nor is he user of Intoxicating bever-
ages. His conduct in this respect both
inside and outside the office is such
that the most careful and discriminate
ing father in the community can point
to him as an example for his son.
The model country postmaster
knows that his place is not sinecure.
1t means hard work, almost constant
attention and often lack of apprecia-
ton, it not more or less unjust accu-
sation. He is conscious of making mis-
takes, but when he is wise he will not
look back at them too long long
enough to study how not to repeat
them. Mistakes are often lessons of
wisdom. The model country postmas-
ter is progressive man.
New occasions teach new duties.
Time makes ancient good uncouth;
They must upward still and onward,
Who would keep abreast of truth"
The model country postmaster seeks
after the latest, best and most approN-
ed ways to serve the public in his ca
pacity as a public official.
After all, while the great public
seems at times thoughtless and I'M
grateful, it is as a rule appreciative of
the good country postmaster. This I
have learned by mingling with the peo-
PIE and talking with them concerning
their postal officials. But whether APP
preciated or not by Others. the pro-
foundest satisfaction that can be felt
by the country postmaster is in know
ing that he has conscientiously and
faithfully discharged his duty to his
government and to the people he has
been called upon to serve.
