The Kemper herald. (Scooba, Miss.) 1875-1908, 1907-03-07

We note with pleasure that a rep,
resentative of the post-office depart
ment, Mr.. w. G. W atson, has been
in this section for several daysspast
ascertalning the Feasibility of piac-
ing the mail routes between Scooba
and Giles and ScOoba and Skipper
on the free delivery system. 1t is
to be hoped that the good people
living in the sections to be affected
by such a change will rally to the
support of those who have worked
the matter up, and that a favorable
report may be made by Mr.. Watson
to the department. The delivery OF
mail at ones door is a thing to be
desired, and the temper of the peo-
pie in sections affected has much to
do with governmental action in the
premises.
