You folks who live along a rural
mail route should take pity on the mail
carrier. When you mail a letter and
have not stamp to put on il. wrap
the pennies in a bit of paper before
putting in the box This can be easily
picked up by the mail man without
removing his gloves. Pretty cold
weather to be scratching around in a
cold mail box bare handed for pennies
that have become frozen to the floor
OF the box. Do this and make life
more pleasant for the man who de-
livers your mail.
