Bowling Notes

Even the postoff1ce employees have
the bug. There was a bowling game
last evening between the clerks and
the carriers of the local postoffce.
Notwithstanding the fact that the car
riers live an out of doors life and are
supposed to be toughened and hard
ened by long walks they are unable
to trim the clerks, and when the games
were finished it was discovered that
the clerks had won by a majority of
81 pints. The contest was played on
the Masonic alleys, and there were a
large number of interested rooters on
both sides.
It is understood that there will be
another game bowled in the near flu
ture and the carriers hope to retrive
