With the completion today of the NOV

Put Your Name On
Your Mail Box

There is postal law requiring on
every rural delivery mail box, the
name of the owner of the box and his
number. On several of the rural
routes this law has not been complied
with, but as long as the regular rural
mail men were on the job and were
well acquainted with everybody, it
made but little difference.
But when the vacation periods came
on and an occasional rural mail carrier
was taking a few days off for good
cause, the trouble began, as the sub

names on the boxes.
