CHECKASHA P. @.
GETS A RATING :
OF FIRST CLASS
Jumps Beyond $4,000 Mark for
Year; Means Raise in Clerks
Salaries.

The Chickasha postoffice is now
rated as first class, having jumped
from second class when the report
of Postmaster George w. Barefoot
for the calendar year ending Dec.
81, 1918, showed that the receipts
for the year were above $4,000.
The report just issued, shows that
during 1918 the Chickasha postoffice
did business to the amount of S46,-
$500, or $6,515 over the necessary
mark, The report also shows that
the December 1918 business jumped
$1,35S above that Of the preceding
month. The November receipts
amounted to $3,639 while the De-
cember business was $4,9S7.
The raise from the second to first
class office means considerable to
the clerks of the office. Under the
ruling, clerks in first class offices
receive 500 a year more than in
offices of the second class. Colonel
Barefoot announces that the salaries
of all clerks will be hiked at the
rate of 500 a year.
The change in rating is made at
the end of the calendar year, but it
does not go into effect until the end
of the fiscal year Therefore the
boost viii lnot be effective here un-
tily July, 1919.

that he stood ready to take his coat
off and work with them at all times
