PUBLIC OPINION
EVENING NEWS.

EDITOR EVENING NEWS:
Twice within three months has
the NEWS contained some criticism
about the new regime In our post
The first attack was made in an
interview with former Postmaster
Tice and was in exceedingly bad
taste to the exceptional courtesy he
had received from Postmaster
Pfeiffer, and to say the least, very
~ungratefui towards a man that kept
him in office for six weeks in order
to accommodate him.
The second onslaught was your
editorial of Saturday, December g.,
In which a mixture of unjust and
spiteful criticism with a dose of
praise mixed with sufficient political
tanimosity was served your readers
Concerning the errors you men,
ton In the editorial, / can assure you
that the like were made during Mr..
Tfce's tenure Of office. There is not
a post office In the United States that
SO our office Is no exception to the
rule.
Regarding your statement that
mail matters are no longer back
stamped, you should be acquainted
with the fact that orders from Wash
ington have cancelled this practice.
You state you find no fault In the
present office force. and nevertheless
you criticize the very mems work In
your w~rite-up. Is that consistentG
Mr.. Pfeiffer has occupied the Office
three months; during the time he
has given his daily attention I'd his
duties as postmaster, not doing any
clerks work. Neither sher1ocking,
but everything that a postmaster
should perform.
The routine work of our post Office
is under the competent direction of
Assistant Postmaster Mr.. TyrrelI,
who certainly Is making every I'M
provement in the efficiency OF the
Office force and carriers to the gain
of the public.
The clerks and carriers are work
ing as never before; they are doing
I.all that ian be asked of them to
faithfully serve the public.
The last three months has seen
several improvements in the service.
| All our mail boxes are in a save
and serviceable condition. More
daily collections from the boxes are
made, thereby giving quicker SER
vice than ever before.
On additional clerk has been add
| ed to the office force and two sub.
carriers to assist during the holiday
rush, etc.
The citizens committee has not as
yet received all 1t asked for, but you
know very well that 1t takes time te
push through the proper channels
matters OF this nature. In one re-
spect 1t has obtained something fl
did not ask for. The removal OF Mr.
Tice was made without asking on til
part, thereby relieving 1t from 1t:
greatest obstructionist.
The public Is today served better
than 1t was three months ago, ant
will undoubtedly still receive NOR
adequate service in the near future
but until the proper appointment
from Washington have been made
the postmaster, assistant postmaster
clerks as we'll as carriers should b.
given due credit for their work.
i am a western man, possessed o
that trait of manhood called fair
ness. i believe In fair play towards
friend and foe alike; that Is some
thing we learn out In the wild. un
civilized West where T came from.
Once more Mr.. Editor and dea,
brother in the profession, give Post
master Pfeiffer reasonable chance
be fair towards him.
Very truly yours,
A. KRINGELBACH.

spirit, thankful to God for deliverance
the faithful of the Jews prepared fol
the journey.
deserted the God of Abraham, Isaac
Jacob, Samuel and Elijah after that
They of course in time, came to think
the outward performance of their re-
ligious worship was more essential
than true heart worship. For this
Jesus reproached them many times
when He came on earth. These Jews
had sinned, they now knew it, they
saw their mistakes and tried to keep
from them in the future.
This history of the Jews was writ
ten for our benefit. 1t was preserved
SO that we might profit from the ex-
perience of other people. The great
lesson or truth should come to us that
we cannot d;sobey God and not suffer
for it. Further, we can learn that
Gods mercy is ready to be extended
when we are sorry and penitant. Hap
py is the boy or girl who will listen
to the advice of their elders, who will
read the bible, and ponder over the
truth, that spiritually people reap what
they SOW, the same as in the physical
world about them. Happy is the per-
son who does not have to go under
the Christening rod to know that the
best way to live is Gods way. 1t will
be remembered that one of the Jew
ish kings when in prison at the end
of a rebellious career, had driven into
his conviction that "The Lord, He is
king" When he began acting with
this as basic truth his fortunes be-
came better and he regained his king
com. God used the Chaldeans, the
Modes and the Persians as instruments
to punish His chosen people. When
the punishment was sufficient to ac-
complish reform, out of captivity they
went. Next week we will read as to
the rebuilding of the temple at Jerusa-
lem. 1t would be we'll to read all the
chapters of Ezra and get posted. May
God bless us all to realize His might
and power. and decide to have Him
for our warm friend, and not one to
chastise for our wrong doings.
