NEW POSTOFF|CE
FOR MADISON AVE.
-
Dutro Station Will Occupy
New Building Near
Cleveland Street.

The Dutro station. the principal sub
station of the Memphis p~ostoffice, will,
within a short time, occupy q new build
ing, according to announcement made
Tuesday by c. w. Metcalf, Jr., post
master, A contract has been let to w.
], Moody for the erection OF a new build
ing to be located on Madison avenue,
near Cleveland street. to house the sub
station, and work will begin immedi-
ately.
According to Mr.. Metcalf, the contract
with Mr.. Moody Is for a period of 10
years, and In view Of this longtime
lease Mr., Moody has agreed TO erect a
brick building that will be entirely suit
able to the p~ostoffice department and
will be constructed with a view of ar
fordlng every convenience to the sue
cessful operation of the substation.
The Dutro station Is now located at
Madison avenue and Willett street.
Mr.. Metcalf believes that with the loca
ton changed to a point near the cross
town car line that the handling of mai
can be greatly facilitated. The lease
on the present quarters Of the Dutro
station will expire on Nov. "a, and every
effort viii be made to have the new
building by that date.
No decision has been reached as to
whether or not the name of the station
will continue to be Dutro or whether
II will be changed to Crosstown station.
The latter name probably will be used,
as II Is indicative of the location of the
station, whereas the name Dutro Is not,

Ever since Peter dropped Aunt
Grace's letter into the creek he had
been very careful with the mail. One
morning the mail mar handed Peter a
big, square box and told him he had
better handle 1t pretty easy. Peter
walked along as if on eggs and held
the box in front of him. For all he
knew it might be a bomb! When he
reached the bridge he seriously con-
sidered dropping it in the creek. He
had heard hat wet bombs didn't go
off. There were very mysterious
noises coming from it too. They were
so faint that Peter couldn't tell what
they were but it scared him just that
much worse.
Still the package was addressed to
grandma and he couldn't imagine even
a Bolshevik wanting to kill his grand
ma SO he marched straight along on
two shaky legs and laid it gingerly
on the kitchen table.
