Postal Matters Are Being
Strengthened Out at the Tot
tenville Station

TOTTENVILLE, July 9.-The free
postal established at the Tottenville
station the first of the month, which
was considerably handicapped by one
of the carriers reporting off sick on
the third day after it had been put
into effect, is working much smoother
now since his return TO duty on Mon
day morning. There was congestion of
mail at the station for a time, but with
the addition of a relief carrier TINS
has been cleared and the system Is
getting down to right basis. A num-
Der of people have still retained thelr
boxes at the postal station and get
their mail in the usual way.
The two carriers are making the
two deliveries each day, but the parcel
post delivery which was to have start
ed has been delayed. There are still
no collection boxes erected at the
places designated by the postal author
tiles and those that wish to deposit
, a letter must still go to the office Tor
that purpose. The boxes are expected
here shortly and will be put up as soon
as they arrive. Nearly every one
along the route of the two carriers
have placed a letter box at their door
and the carriers are learning their
routes n the names of the people
along it. Because of the heavy mail
arriving now at the postal station 1t
is expected that one or two more car
riers will have to be put on to bring
the delivery up to the standard.
