ton in the business district has been at
$780, and after that it was necessary
to take the mail to the postofice per-
sonally in order to lave it go out that

many times when the mail matter is
delayed until after $40, there is no
doubt that a delivery as late as s

to know that the mail in certain boxes
will be collected as late as $40 to
S:55 in the evening This will not
make it necessary for those in the out
laying districts to go all of the way to
the postoffice in the evening.
