Rural Carrier Resigns.

Bert Wells, carrier on Rural Mail
Route No. l, leading out from Dallas
into the Salt Creek country, has
resigned his position, his resignation
to take effect March Is. His only
reason for giving up the work is that
the salary is insufficient to pay his
actual expenses. He laughingly de-
clares that he has had to make his
living for two years by trading horses,
and says he is getting tired OF it.
Uncle Sam will have to do some tall
rustling If he finds a more faithful
and obliging carrier than Bert Wells,
and it is to be regretted that Congress
is pursuing such niggardly policy
toward the postof1ice department as to
deprive the people of the services of
such men.

Music Store Would Pay.

W. F. G. Krull, agency manager
for the Eilers piano house of Portland,
was in Dallas, Saturday. He says
Dallas is the largest town in Oregon
without an exclusive music store, and
is of the opinion that such business
would pay here, If properly managed.
Mr.. Krull says that, to show his faith
in such an enterprise, he will assist
any worthy and enterprising young
man with a limited amount of capital
In establishing neat and up-to-date
store. His business on the road de-
mands so much of his attention that
1t would be necessary for his partner
to manage the Dallas store, and for
this reason he would want none but
wideawake and reliable man to join
him in the enterprise.
