tinued to say that there are few farm

their mail every day by rural delivery.
The convenience OF this delivery is
only felt by those enjoying it's privi-

Wayne county patrons of the rural
route since they have learned that bad
roads will not be tolerated by the
government and that they will have
their mail discontinued unless they
keep the roads in good repair, take
greater interest in keeping the roads
in proper condition. The great inter-
est in road building in the past few
years is attributed entirely to the rur-
al route service and regulations of the
postal department governing the
same.
