1t Ii the policy Of the Department to
make the establishment of city deliY-
cry at new Offices and its ~extention to
new territory at old Offices contingent
upon the provision of mail receptcles
at all residences and places of business.
If a patron prefers he may cut a slot
in the door. which will serve the pur-
pose of facilitating the work of the
carrier. Please take measures at once
to notify all prospective patrons of the
mail receptacle requirement and advise
this Office not later than Angus. 20,
1911, what progress has been made to-
wards supplying them.
1t is to be distinctly understood that
no patron will be served unless he pro-
vldes some means for disposing of his
mail by the carrier.
In conclusion l respectfully request
all prospective patrons of the city de-
livery service to govern themselves ac-
cordingly to the above instructions,
that the service may be put into effect
on September l, 1911.
Respectfully.
DOZIER ANDERSON, p. NJ.
