Like the Mail Delivery-Accord-
ing to Assistant Postmaster Pierce,
the city mail delivery is growing
rapidly in public favor. The first
day there were only about $50 places
on the carriers lists. The service
has been in effect just six days, and
there are already over 400 on the
list. Many who did not fill applica-
tion blanks at the start have applied
since. and every day people are ask
ing that their name be placed on
the list. The sight Of the carrier
leaving the mail each day at their
neighbors' houses, soon inspires
those % yet on the list with a de-
sire to obtain the benefit Of the SER
vice. 1t can be had for the asking.
if your house is numbered, and a
mail box is provided at your front
entrance. Business houses, however.
are not required to provide boxes.
Here's a little saying for you to bear
in mind;
To solve your business problems, of
every ort and kind,
It's easy to remember, still easier to
say,
So keep it running through your
head, We will find the way.
If you lose a letter-an order is mis-
laid
If that receipt is missing. when you
knew the bill was paid;
Your SYSTEM needs repairing; Take
a tonic, don't delay;
Just put the whole thing up to us,
and we will find the way.
