ASKS PATRONS TO
AID MAIL SERVICE
ID. L. Beckes Requests
Assistance for Rural Route
Carriers

A request that patrons of the
rural routes cooperate with the
mail carriers to the fullest ex-
tent to improve the service given,
was made today by D. L. Beckes,
Lynden postmaster.
Mr.. Beckes, on instructions
from Washington headquarters,
offered the following SUGGESTIONS
1T is the desire of the De-
partment, and it's purpose, to pro-
vide adequate and convenient
service. so far as may be possible
to all persons residing inrural
cooperation Of the patrons in the
efforts of the postmasters and
carriers to serve them promptly,
regularly and satisfactorily.
Patrons of rural delivery can
greatly help themselves by help
ing their carrier, seeing to 1t
that roads are kept in good con-
dition and promptly opened after
storms, by keeping the approach
es to their boxes clear, and by
promptly and willingly correcting
any Irregularities affecting their
boxes when asked to do so.
Another great assistance that
patrons can render carriers is
by keeping themselves supplied
with and using stamps instead
of placing unstamped mail. with
money for the purchase or the
required postage, in the boxes
This delays the carrier and some
times imposes great hardshil
ON him, especially in cold OF
stormy weather. If preferred
stamped envelopes, either printed
or plain, may be obtained from
the carrier, are of good quality
and cost but little more than th'
value of the stamp upon them
and are redeemable at the valu
of the stamps if damaged, bu
returned in a practically Who'll
Icondition. If necessary to plac
money in a box, it should D
put in a coin-holding receptacl
or be properly wrapped so as
be easily picked up by the carrie
Money for the purchase
money orders should not be le
: in the boxes, but should be ban'
!. ed to the carrier and a receil
: obtained"
I The patrons are further Il
n structed to see that their box
q are regulation boxes, proper
erected and maintained. The re
Il ulations now require that ea'
= rural mail box must have Il
a owners name on it. Those mai
G tanning boxes now, without I
ie name being on it, will KIND
,s see that the owners name
ar put on it without delay.

The Lynden Athletic Associ-
alton will endeavor to give the

ketball next Wednesday evening
at the high school gymnasium,

Will be to see the class of game

that they play somewhat differ

The Association is under con.
siderable expense in bringing this
team here, but they believe that

support will more than offset the
expense of the undertaking.
On Tuesday evening, the As
sociation team scored a glorious
victory over another all-star team
from Bellingham, winning "a
to 22.
The visitors were one of the
cleanest playing and fastest teams
that ever played on the local
floor. While they played under
the name of the Alaska Business
College, they were picked players
from the best teams in Belling-
ham. Basketball critics who saw
the game said that they did no.
think that any better team could
have been brought from the city.
The game started off the same
as the last one, with the visitors
taking the lead early in the con-
est, but Lynden gradually crept
