MEXICO POST OF.
HCE APPLIES FOR
POSTAL SAVINGS

Mexico may have one Of the new
Postal Savings Banks. Application
has been made by the local office
for the right. to accept deposits and
already quite a number have offered
TO take advantage of such an ,nstitu
ton should It be established here.
Probably no post office ial the state
and few in the Unlted States do az
much business as the Mexico Post
Office, with a population Of less than
5000 to sustain It; ret. 1t Is consd
cred one OF the greatest reading pop
ulatious IN the State
The amount Of mail in pieces hand
led per year runs upwards es 5000
900. and the receipts of the office,
$40, 10000.
Registered NAH handled aggregate
10000 pieces.
No city in the State Is probably as
well covered as Mexico with her 5
city CARRIERS. the area being square
miles. reaching to the very outskirts
of the City.
The rural carriers, z In number,
cover an area of 200 square miles and
deliver approximately 100000 pieces
of mail serving over 5000 patrons.
This office is also the railroad point
for Molino mail, and is transported
to that office via Rural Carrier.
Mail is dispatched 81 times daily
from Tie Office giving service that
none in Western Missouri can sur
pass.
The pay roll of the office (yearly)
is $22, 2,675.00.
The force is composed of Geo,
H. KunkeI, P. M; e. B. Keath, AS
sistant P. NJ; g. F. Kunkel, Money
Order Clerk; u. M. Saunders, Mail
ing Clerk, H. NJ. Bartels and Frank
Flumey, General Delivery and Stamp
Clerks. These whth five city carriers,
one substitute. seven carriers, two
railroad maid service clerks, whose
runs are to jefferson City, NO., and
Old Monroe, Mo-, special delivery car
rier and janitor makes a working
force of 23 people.
The business district has three de.
l'veries a day, the residence dis
tIict. two.
This office has one of the best rec
oeds in the department for amount
of business transacted with the small
amount of expense.
The department, according to the
Inspector who has just checked up
tbs office says that they will insist
that the houses be numbered and
this ruling will probably come out in
General Order in the very near fu-
lure. rhe town has grown too large
for any one man or set of clerks to
know personally where Smith. Brown.
etc, live and that there is only one
SURF way to get your mall promptly
and that is to give street and num-
her, otherwise complaints to the de-
Dartment will not be considered.
rhe money order department does
a gross business Of 100000.
Postmaster Kunkel is to be con-
upon his excellent record
while in cffice and the work is also
greatly facilitated by the efforts of
assistant Postmaster Keath. The 9th
ers connected with the Mexico Of
flee are all experienced men and the
entire ',rce works with the speed
and care of well regulated machine
Mexico should be proud of her post
office force and the good service CIV
