There are ten families up on Albion
Prairie that are madden than any March
hare ever dared to be. And the way
your Uncle Sam has laid out the Rural
Free Delivery routes in that neighbor-
hood is the cause of their ruffled tenn
pers. These ten families feel as though
the topographist had entirely cleared the
map of their presence. And so he has
as far as the Rural Free Delivery system
is concerned. In mapping out the
routes the specifications directed that
the Delivery man should go one-half
mile east of Touton's corner. At this
point, where he is directed to stop, there
is no box Or house where mail could be
delivered, consequently he stops at Tou-
tons corner. The route from Cambridge
ends within about half mile of the
stopping point on this end of the line.
The ten families live between the two
points where the routes end. Had these
two routes connected the ten families
would not have been obliged to caper all
over the country to get their mail as they
do now since the country postoffices have
been abolished. The names of the ten
mad families are: Roy Saunders, An
tone Olson, Charles Tall Herman
Koosch, Sam Mobiles, Otto Olson. Fl.
Gullickson, Mrs. 0. P. Saunders, Otto
Rucks, and Geo. Goldthorpe. And it is
stated upon authority which positively
cannot be contradicted that these ten
families will remain in the present frame
OF mind until the map is revised and
their homes are numbe among the
residen ces on beautiful Albion Prairie
If Uncle Sam cares for their good will
and patronage he will dispatch his
man Friday" to at once make this
wrong right.
