Improved Mail Service.

That the residents of the outlying
district of the city who have not been
receiving their mail bv the city car
riers will be furnished with a service
equal to that of any part of the city is
shown by the announcement made to
this effect by Postmaster N. A. Moore,
who by order of E. T. Bushnell, Act
ing First ASSISTANT Postmaster Gen
eral. will in a few days establish a
mounted carrier system to complete
the service.
All of the new additions in the city
of Paris will receive the benefits of
the new service. Postmaster Moore has
frequently received petitions from resi-
dents in many sections of the city fora
carrier service and the matter was
taken up with the department in WASH
ington, resulting in the order beng
issued.
The rapid groth of the city of Paris
coupled ith the increase in the city's
population has made it impossible for
the present carrier system toe over all
of the territory within the city limits
and to overcome this and give residents
in the outskirts service the establish
ment Of the mounted carrier as recon-
" NllC DOSlOillCS
There will be no increase in the pres
ent force of carriers in the city. one of
the number now employed being as
signed TO the new route which is to be
established within the next few days.
His equipment will be similar to that
which is now being used by the
mounted mail carriers in larger cities
and will constitute miniature post
office on wheels, to which is driven a
horse and which is constructed in a
manner to be easily mounted by the
carrier.
The only provision set out in the or
der from the department is that each
residence along the route of the
mounted carrier be provided with a
suitable receptacle in which to receive
their mail and unless such mail box is
provided the >servicesswill no: be ex-
| tended. There is little doubt that
each resident will provide the neces-
sary mail box from the number of
! anxious requests that have been re-
ce we'd for the service by the local post
Office officials.
The districts to he served by the
mounted carrier are White Addition,
Henry Addition, Nineteenth and Twen-
tieth streets, Brent and Clifton ave
nues. These additions have hereto
fore beensreceiving their mail through
the general delivery:andsprivate boxes
and the new service will prove a great
convenience to the residents in those
| sections of the city.
| The city carrier service was put into
effect in Paris about eight years ago,
when three carriers employed made
the deliveries. Since that time, and
keeping abreast with the extension of
the city and increasing population the
number of carriers has been increased
to four, which gives Paris a mail de-
livery service equal to any fourth class
city in the State and the addition OF
| the mounted carrier is calculated to
greatly improve the service and conve-
nience the patrons.
The completion of the route for the
mounted carrier is expected in the
next few days and the new service will
go into effect. 81
