In business It often saves mis-

This bond OF good faith is not

POstmen Here
Tote Tons of
Mail in Week

Senders and receivers of mail in
Casper will find something to think
about in the amount of mail that
is handled by the carriers alone in
this city. Postmaster Edwin NJ.
Bean recently gathered data on the
amount of work done by this branch
Of the department OF the Casper
postoffice and found that three and
one-half tons of mail were handled
by the IL carriers for the week OF
October IL to IS. which Is con-
sidered an average week of the
work of the carriers. Each of the
carriers covered a distance of five
and one-half miles per day OF eight
hours. The week taken for the COM
pilation of figures was somewhat
lighter than many similar periods.
since II was marked by an absence
Of heavy catalogues and periodicals.
: In all there were 1855 pieces
carried. One thousand and seventy
eight pieces were carried by each
carrier every day who in doing this
had to carry a daily burden Of 9s
pounds.
Because so many Casperites are
continually changing their addresses
II was necessary to rehandle 1859
pieces Of this mail. The IL carriers
consumed 535 hours. Al hours of
which wero used for counting,
weighing. and facing up collections
made on the street.
OF the total weight of the mail
thus handled less than one-fourth
included letters. An average of
four letters to one piece of other
mail was found. No parcels weigh
ing more than three pounds are
handled by the carriers.
