postoffice at Griswold or elsewhere,
will be cashed at the Griswold
Office. This is an entirely new de-
parture with offices of the class in
which Griswold is rated. but it is of
importance and will facilitate the
money order business quite a good
deal. 1t is the right thing to do.
Instructions have also been issued
to the postmaster at Griswold that
in the future it will not be necessa-

postinasters issuing money orders
but to pay them upon presentation.
