Postmaster Ollie Thorson has recent
ly sent letter to the patrons of the
local office requesting that they re-
port to him any mistakes that may b
made or lack Of service in the delivery
Of mail. Of course, everybody know
that mistakes will occur under IL
most favorable conditions and witt
the best system that can be devised,
but Mr.. Thorson is anxious to reduce
these efrors to the minimum and -
cannot know Of these mistakes unless
you report them to him IS he asks zee
10 do. The clerks are working under
the merit system and it is right thae
they have credit for what they deserve
and NO more. There 10 NO doubt but
that the patrons can very materially
assist Mr.. Thorson in adding to ths
efficiency of the office if they will.
