Day. and through the courtesy of Postmaster

their meeting. Those who came by train were
met at the station by the Belfast carriers and
escorted uptown to the city's up-to-date post
Office and were shown through the building.
1t is thought that all got some new ideas with
regard to handling parcel post matter. The
forenoon was spent in getting acquainted and
enrolling new members. After dinner the
meeting was called to order by President
Libby and speaking followed. The new men,
bers proved to be wideawake and alive to new
ideas and various matters were discussed. 1t
was the opinion of most of those present that
the parcel post subject was the toughest
proposition, as We hardly know whether to
use track sulky or hayrack on our routes.
All of the speakers were applauded, and there
was hearty laughter at the funny stories and
witty sayings. After giving rising vote to
the Belfast carriers for their hospitality the
convention adjourned to hold their next meet
