RURAL BOXES
BEING MOVED

Rural mail carriers in this vicinity
report that the mail boxes are gradual
ly being moved to the right side of the
road. Nearly all the boxes on route Z
have been moved. Since the prov1-
sion of section 827 of the postal laws
relating TO the placing of mail boxes
on the right-hand side of the road for
the rural patrons, the boxes are being
moved in conformity with the require
ments. The postal regulations read
as follows:
Each mail box of patron on a
rural mail route shall if practicable
be erected on the right-hand side of
the road regularly travelled by a
rural carrier and safely accessible
for the delivery and collection of mail
by the carrier without leaving his
conveyance"
This is required by the post-office
department when, because of traffic
conditions, to travel from side to side
of the road would endanger the life
of the carrier and the safety of the
mails, or would be in violation of local
ordinances in respect to the use of
highways, that all boxes be erected on
the right-hand side of the road as reg
ularly travelled by the carrier.
In other localities rural carriers re-
port only a few stragglers on their
routes.

in going up the rocks had bad scare
by almost climbing over one lying ex

and retreated. The reptile instantly
curled up ready for battle; he was dis
patched.
1t was the purpose of these men tC
exterminate the reptiles, if possible
Three dens were raided and several
snakes found and killed, but owing tc
the lateness of the season nearly al
the snakes had left. 1t was possible
to secure some photographs, one OF
