POSThAsTERS OF THE

Postmaster Davis reports that con-
tributions from the postmasters of Ida
no for an Idaho flag for the postoffice
department at Washington, d. c., are
coming in very satisfactorily, but
many of the postmasters have delayed
sending in subscriptions for the rea-
son that the flag is not to be used until
Flag Day, June IA. To these post !
masters, he calls attention to the fact
that considerable time Is required in
selecting the flag and the amount do
mated i'll govern largely the kind of
flag ordered. Consequently he is anx-
ious to have the contributions as soon
as convenient. State flags range in
price, according to quality and size
from 500 to $3.50 and Mr. Davis hopes
that the contributions from the post
masters of this state will be sufficient
to get Idaho fine flag for the national
capitol.
