HELP O
THE POSTOFFICE
POSTMASTER WTLLS ANNOUNCES
THAT MORE MEN WILL BE
ASKED FOR WITH ADVENT
or PARCELS POST.

Postmaster Wells this morning
made the announcement that with
the advent OF the parcels post which
goes into effect January LIST, it will
be necessary for more help to be EN-
ployed by the local postoffice. He
declares that it may ben ecessary to
redistrict both the residence and the
business mail routes in the city and
if this is done it viii mean two
carriers for the Main street route,
one for each side of the street.
The reason for the additional help
being needed, in addition to the par
cells post. is that after March 4th.
next, all carriers and clerks are to
get in their eight hour shifts as re
quired by the department within ten
hours from The time of going to work.
After March 4 all clerks and carriers
VIII get paid for overtime work. I'm
der the present system compensory
time is given during the week for
clerks and carriers who work sun
days and holidays. The time thus
allowed amounts TO 200 days a year
in the local postoflice. so that it will
be seen that the office is short hand
ed to the extent of one clerk for a
period of over three-fifths of the
year.

BIG COST OF
ROAD TRAVEL
BEN MOOD ESTIMATES THAT
SOME $4,000 is LOST DAILY
IN THE BLACK HILLS.

Rapid City, S. D. Secretary Ben
NJ. Wood OF the South Dakota Good
Roads association has been preparing
statistics. which he will present to
the good roads conference to be held
at Huron, December 20.
He estimates that there are 81 900
miles OF roads and trails in the Black
Hills country which are used for
traffic of all kinds. Taking into ON
sideration the spill, loss OF time and
wear and tear on harness, horses
and vehicles, it is conservatively esti-
mated thar the cost of hauling one
ton of freight or produce one mile is
6S cents. 1t is said that there are
$4,000 tons of material moved in
the black hills each working day OF
the year. In other words this. with
time and wear and tear costs approx
mately $19.50n daily to the Hills
people.
In the mountainous section OF
Europe, especially in Switzerland.
where there are some of the best
roads in the world the cost of hauling
is 16 cents per ION. The difference
between the cost of traffic in the
hills and that in an equally noun
famous country i'll Europe is over
$4,000 per day. during 300 work
ms days in the year. one half of
this amount would make boulevards
OF the main thoroughtares in the
hills and keep them i'm repair accord
ing TO Secretary Woods figures.
