the reasons for not moving the same.
Several propositions were presented
for moving. same and we presume
the department will act in the mat
ter later, but it seems from the In
spector that he has Mr.. Fuhr's ideas
about moving "down pat' and is in
clined to think the Office should be
in better building. One thing we
do know, and that is that the post
Office should be in a separate build
ing from the printing Office. 1t
seems to US that 1t would be much
more satisfactory to Mr.. Fuhr and
certainly the public would have bet
ter postal service. One person
could put in all their time and attend
to the postofice very conveniently.
With the two together and the same
people trying to attend to both give:
very poor service. 1t is fact thai
one person or persons cannot atteno
to more that one business at a time
and do it justice. Let's have the of
