FREE MAIL
DELIVERY !!
Uncle Sans Postmen Have
Begun Their Work.
Brief Statement Of the Development
Brief Statement of the Development
of the Florence Office and of the
Service Which Was Inaugu-
rated Today.

Eighteen months ago W. II. Davie
assumed the duties of postmaster OF
Florence, pursuant to his appointment.
The Office was then a dingy, untidy
disgraceful place. and there was a
general demand for something better.
Mr.. DAVE at once got busy" with
the result that the office was soon
moved into larger quarters, with new
fixtures throughout, and fully up to
the need of city of the size and inn
portance of Florence. There was also
a demand for free mail delivery and
as the receips of the office were sufii-
cient to entitle the city to this ar
rangement Mr.. Davie went after it.
In year after his appointment the
department at Washington granted the
request. At Canon City they waited
eighteen months after the order for
free delivery had been issued before il
was put into effect Postmaster
Davie was obliged to wait only six
months. 1t was because he pounded
Uncle Sam on the back.
Today mail is being delivered by
three carriers to all parts of the city.
So we'll had everything been arranged
and so carefully had the carriers been
trained in their duties, that every
one of them got out of the office right
on the stroke Of eight. the time re.
quired by the regulations And from
their experience this morning it WAS
evident that another carrier will be
necessary. Not one of the carriers
was able to carry all the mail of his
district.
Roy McCandess has District No. /,
which includes all the business sec
tion. L. F. Tyler has District No. 2,
the north and east section, and Thomas
Walters, Jr, covers District No. 3,
the western portion of the city.
The local civil service board con.
sists of Miss Mable Clark, Miss Ethel
Reiter and l.. f Tyler. who will see
that civil service rules are strictly
! followed in the office.
The carriers are all courteous gem
! tlemen and will do everything possible
in the line of duty to accommodate
patrons of the office. Any com
plaiuts, however. should be made
directly to the postmaster who will
give the matter his personal attention
Florence is proud of herself today.
