SUNDAY PosToFFIcE CLOSING

A great many of the cities of the
country, both large and small, have
recently started agitations for Sunday
closing OF the pOstoffices, and in a
great many Of the cities the Depart
ment at Washington has ordered the
Offices closed. Aberdeen is a notable
example in this state. At a meeting
OF the Ministerial association of Brook
ings held last Thursday, the follow
Ing petition, addressed TO the assist
ant postmaster general. was unari'
mously passed in the form Of a reso-
luton.
We the undersigned patrons Of the
United States Post Office of Brook
ings, S. d., respectively petition you
to close the Post Office of this city
on each Sunday in order that the en-
ployees may as far as possible be en-
abled to observe the day as a day
of rest"
A committee was appointed con.
sisting of Revs. G. F. Hoffman, w. A.
Black and W. T. Shean to secure if
possible the cooperation of the Com
mercial club and the newspapers OF
the city. The petition will shortly be
circulated among the citizens and will
then be sent to Washington.
The ministers believe, and a large
number Of the citizens are of a like
opinion, that the day should be OBJ
served by the government as well as
by private business houses. At pres
ent it gives the office force no oppor
tunity to observe the Sabbath, anC
breaks into their day so that it leaves
them no time to themselves before
noon. The Sunday service will no
be discontinued entirely, but the win
dOws will be open for a short time il
the morning and the mail will be dis
tributed in the boxes.
