CITY DELIVERY
BEING DELAYED
By the Failure to Place
Numbers Promptly

City delivery of mail in Maryville
is very seriously being delayed by
the seeming indifference Of our citi-
zens as to the placing of number on
their homes and plac s of business.
The houses on all the streets have
been mum mbered an6 list has been
left at R. G. McNutt Hara ware
Store so that everyone can easily
find and get their numbers.
The town officials complied very
promptly with the request of the
Post Office Department to name and
number the streets and now its up
to the people to place the hunters
oD their property. Until this is done
the carrier delivery system will not
be established. This is the informa-
tion that has been given to the
mayor.
Mayor Everett earnestly requests
all, who have not yet done SO, to
get the proper numbers and to place
them above their doors at once. The
large metal figures cost only five
cents each and can be gotten from
R. G. McNutt's Hardware Co.'S
store. The mayor further stated
that in CorgIessman Auslin's opin.
ion the system would be in working
order within sixty days if the citi.
zens would be prompt in doing their
part.
The failure to comply with the
requiren ent of the Postmaster Gen.
eral will endanger the establishing
Of this very convenient ann of the
postal service.
