The department of clerks in the
postoffice has undergone a change
during the past week. Miss Ida
Cloud after four years of faithful ser
vice resigned her position on Febru-
airy lst- During her long stay in the
office she made host of friends. She
was efficient and obliging and her
never failing good humor and kind
ness toward all won a warm place for
her in the hearts of the postoffice en-
ployes and patrons of the office. Her
pleasant countenance will be missed
from its accustomed place, but she
has the best wishes of all her friends
both young and old. Miss May Curry
has taken her position and we are
sure she will fill the vacancy with
credit as she is rapidly learning her
new duties and is pleasant and oblig-
ing to deal with.
