Editor zPostoffice De-
partment has directed me to re-
quest patrons on rural delivery
to paint their boxes and posts to
which boxes are attached, a pure
white color. This will not only
result in benefit to patrons in
protecting boxes and posts from
damage by the weather, but the
uniform color of all boxes will
serve to fix their identity in all
parts of the country as United
States mail boxes, and will give
them a much neater and sightlier
appearance.
Patrons are also requested to
imprint their names and box
numbers on their boxes in black
letters about two inches high,
and road officers are requested to
paint upon the posts of mail box
es located at cross roads (but not
attach signs thereto) the names
of towns or villiges to which said
roads lead with an indication
showing the direction.
Posts for mail boxes shall be
set in an easily accessible posi-
ton, and boxes fastened to pro-
jecting arm of wood, or to an
iron bracket. An automatic ex-
tension arm may be used.
It is earnestly desired that all
patrons of Rural Delivery from
this office carefully note these re-
quests and act accordingly.
