NEW MAIL ROUTE
Fourth Mail Route Out of Edmore To
Be Established June Ito
Bun North and West.

Orders have been received at the
Edmore postofice from the Department
at Washington that rural route No. 4
out Of Edmore will be put into service
June l, 1911. This is the route run
ming north and west out of Edmore
and the patrons of said route should
see to it at once that they have mail
boxes properly put up and in readiness
to receive mail at that date. 1t is i'm
portant that the patrons should make
such arrangements SO that the service
can be put into effect with the least
possible work and delay. Good service
over a rural route depends to some ex-
tent on the way the patrons work in
harmony with the carrier and we trust
that the ones who have been so anx-
iously looking for this route to be put
into service will see to it that the pat
rons do their part. Carl B. Olson has
been appointed carrier and will have
charge Of both routes Nos. 3 and 4, as
they are tri-weekly and he can serve
both routes alternateivcly. Mail will
be carried OH route No. 4 on Tuesdays,
