HOUSES MUST HAVE
NAIL RECEPTlCLEs
Copy OF Post Office Depart
ment Order Received By
Postmaster Harper

The Post office department has is.
sued an order requiring that at all
dwellings where mail is delivered
dOor-slots or receptacles shall be pro-
vided within four months.
The order, which was received by
Postmaster Harper Monday, reads as
follows:
"On account of the delays caused
to carriers at dwelling houses where
no door-slot or mail receptacle is pro.
vided, and the fact that large ma
jority of dwellings are thus eauipped
already, it seems timely, within a rea.
sOnable period, to require all who are
to receive mail by street carriers at
their dwellings to provide such ac-
commodations, the expense of the
same being small. POstmasters are
therefore thus instructed. The length
of notice should not exceed four
months, although there may be excep.
tional cases where postmasters should
use reasonable discretion or ask for
Instructions.
1T is not the Departments desire,
OF course, that any shall be deprived
OF. delivery by this requirement, but
rather it is earnestly hoped that all
will see the reasonableness of it and
its advantage to themselves as well
as to the carriers. But if it finally be.
comes necessary mail delivery will be
discontinued where no door.slots (pre-
ferably) or mail receptacles, are pro.
vided."

An Overcast Sky And A Rain
Shswer Combine To Make
A Record
CUBAN INNS ARE BEATEN
BY A M-2 COMBINATION
Play Is Started Late Sunday
Afternoon And Goes Seven
And One-Half Innings

A record small crowd was out at
the ball yard Sunday afternoon. An
overcast sky and light shower that
began to fall just about the time the
crowd should be starting its hejira to
the park were instrumental in forcing
the attendance figures down to the
minimum.
The Cuban Inns. a Columbus team,
had been secured to furnish the op-
position. Because of the condition of
the infield following the shower it
was impossible to start the play for
almost an hour after the usual time.
1t was possible to play only seven
and one-half innings within the time
limit left.
For two innings it was a game
worth seeing. Both slabmen were eff
fective in spite of the adverse condi-
tions. Blubaugh struck out six bat
ters and allowed one single. While
less effective in creating atmospheric
disturbance Beck allowed not single
safety.
The blow. off came in the third
frame. Mt. Vernon accumulated a
tai Of eight runs in what session the
combined effect of five safe liaps
and two errors. This was enough to
take the starch out of anything and
that is the precise effect it had on the
remainder of the game. The home
bunch scored twice in the fifth while
ten Cubans goe their two in the fifth
and sixth.
AS the infield dried out playing con-
ditions improved somewhat but
throughout the play the fielders and
base runners found their footing pre-
carious. The defenders of the inner
works, particularly, had a difficult
time of it. They never could tell for
sure, when they started for a ball
they were going to connect. Or il
they did they couldn't be sure it was
going where they intended to put it
or if they did there would be anyone
there to receive it.
