Although Mrs. Joe w. Fleming vol

q temperature of thirty degrees this
morning or two degrees below fraez-
ing, there does not seem to have
been the damage done that Is ordina-
rily the case where there is lreezins

little damage. On the other hand

the sorghum, but the weather was so
dry that nothing like the harm was
done that would have resulted if

AS part of his nationwide cam

vice Postmaster General Will II.

mail is delivered shall be numbered.
Not only should they be numbered
but they should be properly equipped

quired by the department. 1t may
consist of either a slot in the dopr or

On October 10, next Wednesday, tAI

With mail receptacle Therefore if
the patrons Of the Columbia Office
to whom mail is delivered want to

out any further delay provide the num-
bers for their house and the recep-
tacle or slot for the mail
The reasons for requiring the num-
bers on the house and the receptacles
are thus set forth by the postoffice
department:

promptly locate buildings to which
mail is addressed and to avoid errors
and delays in delivery.
Mail recptacles insure prompt and
