Denver to talk of organizing another
good roads association, except for the
local regulation of good roads prob
lens. A delegation that can't stand Up
and take the results of a contest that
had been advertised as many months
beforehand as the Good Roads conven-
tion should never enter semi-public
body where it is likely to face a col-
fict of opinion.
Southern Colorado looked to Pueblo
to lead in the contest for recognition
of the splendid roadwork done by the
various counties in this section of the
state, and Southern Colorado stood
back of Pueblo most Loyalty and 10
its credit throughout the contest.
When it is stated that Southern Col
orado has not only expended four Or
five times as much money as North
ern Colorado to improve its roads, but
that its counties have appropriated al
most seven hundred thousand dollars
!or additional roadwork, regardless of
any state or national aid, as against
less than one hundred and fifty thoa-
sand dollars appropriated by counties
along the Denver and Omaha White
Pole line, it is even easier to nnder-
stand why Pueblo and Southern Colo
RADIO are so greatly il earnest over the
question of good roads and the bene-
fits good roads will be to this section
of the state.
There are no apologies to make-no
odes to sing Timely notice was given

sections of the state which have been
building on dirt instead Of on paper

are entitled to all the credit it is pos
sible to obtain from the victory won.-

Change In Mail Service.

Mr.. H. Nj. Lockridge has re-
ceived notice from the First AS
sistant Postmaster General as fol-
lows:
The Post Office appropriation
act for the fiscal year ending June
30, 1918, provides, that hereafter
post offices of the first and second
classes shall not be open on Sun
day for the purpose of delivering
mail to the general public, but
this provision shall not prevent the
prompt delivery of special delivery
mail.
Under this law you will close
the general delivery, carriers win
dows, and lock boxes and discon-
tinue all deliveries by carriers on
Sunday. You will note, however,
that special delivery mail is ex-
cepted and you will therefore ar
range to have on duty a sufficient
force to handle this mail matter
promptly"
This ruling, while giving the
post office force more time off on
Sunday, works great hardship on
the general public, and it is hoped
the law will soon be amended.
