Pity the poor rural mail carrier on
a morning like this when he has to
remove his gloves or mittens and fish
into a family mail box for a couple OF
pennies to pay postage. Postmaster
w. o. Rigby is trying to discourage
the custom of leaving money in the
boxes for the mail carriers because OF
the inconvenience resulting. Notwith-
| standing his efforts the total amount
collected from the routes last year was
greater by $55 than for the previous
year. Postmaster Rigby urges patrons
of rural routes to supply themselves
with stamps when in town and have
the stamps affixed to the letters wher
they place them for the carrier.
