He has had the matter up for some time and believes that, as soon as the State Board finishes examin- ing the text, will recommend its adoption, as postal subjects are some thing that every person in every sta tion of life must deal with, and yet, from child to man, they are something about which nine out of every ten who come in to transact business are very hay.
