Augusta Mail
Service Not To
Be Curtailed

The country wide retrenchment
OF Pos Office funds will not curtail
the mail service at Augusta. A
letter from the First Assistant Post
master-General has been sent to all
first and second class postmasters
advising of an emergency In the SER
vice requiring entire elimination Of
expenditure for auxiliary carrier SER
vice at the smaller offices and a re-
duction ranging from 60 to 90 per
cent at other offices. The effect Of
this action by the Post Office De-
partment is causing much concern on
the part Of the public.
Suggestions from Washington in
clude: discontinuance Of all unusual
or special service, restriction of de-
livery in residential sections to one
daily trip. combined or curtailed VIM
dow service and elimination OF all
overtime.
A representative Of the Journal
yesterday found the office Of the Au-
gusta postmaster a busy place, where
supervisors were engaged in read
justing schedules and assignments
to meet the new conditions without
curtailment Of service. The post
master states "This is one of the
greatest emergencies with which the
IOSIdA ACpdA tACAC AAAS OCCh SOA.
fronted since the war: an extraordi-
nary increase in business for which
the budget committee made no APP
preparation. The Postmaster Cen
eral must depend upon postmasters
and loyal employees to keep mails
moving. That this will be accom-
plished at the Augusta Office I am
certain. With a little extra effort
and at some personal sacrifice on the
part Of all, with full measure Of
| service throughout every working
day there is no doubt of the ability
OF the Augusta postal men to meet
this emergency with credit to them
selves and to the satisfaction of
patrons. The Augusta Office has
not been definitely apprised Of the
extent to which the depleted appro-
priation will effect the allotment of
funds for local service. With what
ever appropriation is allowed the
usual standard Of service will be
continued until July /, when the new
appropriation becomes available.
The Augusta clerks and carriers are
resourceful and have considerable
pride in the service. / am sure they
will put. It over. The Postma ster-
General has assured me that the
necessity for this curtailment and
! intensive service conditions is only
temporary and will cease June 80,
when consideration will be given to
more liberal allowance of funds and
additional help"

his rise has been as sure as it was

A very pretty hat at Soule's was Of

further embellished with brilliant

Horse Destroys
25-lb. Bag Sugar.

ANY news this >morning2" asked
the Jealous reporter.
Nothing exciting" replied the
friend Of the Journal. as he looked up
from his work, Except saw a horse
eat some sugar."
Polite silence while the reporter
tried to determine how that might
constitute news. But the F. Of the j.
illuminated the remark thusly:
Eyes, sir, this morning saw a gro
Gerry team drive up before the store
across the road. The horse stuck his
nose into the back Of another grocery
wagon and began to nibble at some
thing. Then quicker than wink,
that horse lifted from the wagon a
25-pound bag Of sugar and knawed
away at it. And down went the 25-
pound bag of sugar onto the street,
every bit lost"

Dainty Attractive
Hats at Opening
Mrs. LeClair's Shon

In the attractive millinery shop Of
Mrs. Victoria LeClair, the spring
spirit of 1923 found expression on its
first day. when Mrs. LeClair held her
spring millinery opening.
From the beautifully decorated dis
play window to the shelves and
stands Of the shop, the spring mil
linery was displayed. In the window
were' dainty Easter hats Of gayest
colors. Cocoa brown in lace hat
was one Of the attractive models.
This delicate shade Of brown also
formed the streamer which hung
gracefully down, over, the brim. A
wreath Of tiny spring flowers in pas
tel shades, adorned the crown. Gay
boxes Of black and white stripes with
purple posies were used as decora =
tons.
Maine Of mountain haze was an
other hat of wide brim and pretty
velvet streamers in blue. Daisies, all
in chain, Of gay reds and gay blues
We're arranged on the brim, coming
dangerously near the edge. Embos-
sed webbing Of strawberry shade
formed lovely poke shape. Around
the crown was a plated band of silk
in the same shade. A burnt peacock
feather spray in front Of the crown
was held in place by a silver buckle.
Paisley, which is so much in style
this year and which looks so well
with the tan top coats. was used
most effectively in Mrs. LeClair's
hats in semi-tailored models Of fiat
tering lines. One hat of more dressy
type, had a maline brim and its
crown was Of silky texture. paisley
in design. Gay canary yellow daisies
with a few orange ones sprinkled in,
formed the garland. around the
crown.
"A new blue, which is very good
this year." says Mrs. LeClair, us the
