second class. The receipts f1uctuate. One year they are in excess of the S10,000 required to get rating as a classified second class office and the next year they drop below the $10,000 mark. putting Danielson in the un- classified second class of offices. This latter class of offices are not entitled to government postoffice buildings. Again, city delivery service is neces- sary in a town that expects to get an appropriation for the purpose men, toned, and Danielson has no such ser vice. Still another requirement Is i'm posed before building may be had and that is that all houses be num- bered and that all streets have signs at corners bearing their names. So Danielson is not yet quite up to the standards required. But is on the verge of being so.
 The receipts for the present fiscal year ending in March will be above the $10,00O mark The chances that ever. If they do, the city delivery ser vice will quickly follow. Action to have street signs erected and houses numbered Is already under way. So after all, if a bill to give Danielson session Danielson would be within the requirements of the government by the time all the delays could be overcome and the time for, erecting the. structure had arrived. Danielson would like a postoff1ce building, too: but if there is to be but one appropriation for such a building in Windham county at this session Putnam is entitled to receive it.
