No longer will poscmasSers enjoy
the pleasures of a 30day annual va
cation. An order received by Post
master e. E. Mccoy says postmasters
will be allowed only fifteen days a
year, exclusive Of Sundays and hol
idays, and ten days per year for sick
ness, cumulative for three years. Any
additional days off will be without pay,
the order states. "Postmasters are
required to give a minimum of eight
hours daily to the work of the Office"
states the order ''They must not alb
sent themselves from the Office for
more than two days without spec
ial order from the department"
In Mr. McCoy's case the ruling makes
little difference as he hasn't had a
vacation since he took the office over
six years ago.
Band master E. A. Nealy is endeav-
Oring to organize girls bands at
Lancaster and Fennimore. The plan
is to enroll young girls up to the
number of eighteen or twenty. The
aspirants buy their own instruments
but have no further expense. Six
Lancaster girls and twelve Fennimore
girls have so far indicated their de-
sire to become band musicians. Pri-
vate lessons are given once each week
with two rehearsals weekly. The
idea has been worked out in various
cities so that they have girls bands
that are in tremendous demand for
concert and public work. Mr.. Nealy
hopes to do the same thing in this
vicinity.
