Washington. October 2. 1921.
If expiditious and efficient city de-
livery service is to be accorded It is
essential that all buildings to which
mail is delivered be promptly num-
bered and equipped with private
mail receptacles. Without house num-
bers carriers are delayed in serving
the routes and errors IN delivery un-
avoidably occur. especially when sub
stitutes are on duty. This condition
couples with the lack OF mail recep-
tacles. inevitably impairs efficiency
and delays delivery. with result.

To correct this evil II has been de.
cided to cor,lrt q nationwide cam.
paign with view to having every
building prooerl numbered and
equipped with Il suitable receptacle

As a preliminary step, on October
10. 1921. the postmaster OF every
post Office having city or village dc.
livery service Will require his car.

dwelling and place OF business on

Guarantors of Fair
Asked to Help End
Up Affairs Quickly

An itemized report on the receipts
and expenditures for the 1921 fair
will be published in the next issue Of
this paper. The management hoped
to have these details ready this week.
but they are all busy men with their
own work, and as they are scattered
around the county, the work of check
Ing up and auditing the books has
been somewhat slower than had been
anticipated.
The question might be raised:
Was the 1921 fair a success?" The
answer comes right back to you who
attended pnd formed your opinions.
If you consider the livestock, farm
products and women's department
exhibits and the extensive amuse-
ment program that was furnished

the officers and board of directors
feel that their work has not been In
vain; but II you form your opinion
from the. financial report alone. there

point.
For the men Who signed the guar.
antee that made the fair possible, the
directors, who are all listed on that
guarantee, feel that an accurate &C.
counting of every item of receipt and
expenditure should be sent out with
every appeal for a prompt settlement
OF the pro rated share of the guar
antee. The amount that each guar
antor will be required to pay as his
share VIII be approximately $40,
For some that win no doubt be
somewhat of sacrefce. but that
brings us back to the question-tak-
ing into consideration the difficulties
under which the directors labored to
make II a real .fair-is not the sacri-
fee well worth while to the welfare
OF the county?
When you receive your itemissd
report. check II over carefully, aud
when you make your PAYMENT u.
ciude with It what you tiiiak ars

all departments OF the fair were man.
aged this year. a list of these will
be compiled for the benefit Of the
men who manage the future fairs Of
Phillips county. Helpful criticism
and cooperation VIII help to make
thom success.
The big wind storm on Wednesday
night, the second of the fair and
chilly dlsagreeable day Thursday
are resronaihle for large amount OF
the deficit in the financial end OF the
1921 fair II every guarantor win
