Kirwln patrons of the Herald have
recently registered kick because the
paper fails to arrive in that town unit
Saturday, and the rural route patrons
seldom get them until Monday Of the
week following publication. The
same is true at Bow Creek. The Her.
aid is published every Thursday and
put in the post Office in Philllpsburg
on the same day and there is no reaS-
enable cause for the delay. The
Dispatch which is published anc
mailed on the same day arrives DAY
in advance Of the Herald and also Of
the Post. Perhaps they are sent out
over the same route from PhillipSburp
at the same time but it doesn't look
that way. The Herald will appreciate
any information regarding delays, AND
viii try to correct them.
