BaIIston and RossIyn Resi-

BALLSTON, Va, August 23-The
proposed abolition of the Ballston and
Rosslyn post offices by the United
States Post Office Department. with the
substitution of regular city delivery; is
to meet with considerable opposition in
both communities, it was indicated to-
day.
The principal objection offered in
the Ballston section is that regular city
delivery will be difficult and therefore
unsatisfactory to residents because of
the lac kof uniformity in the naming
and numbering of streets and because
the section is not made up of one COM
pact community, but by a number OF
scattered subdivisions.
According to Supervisor B. M. Hedrick
of Arlington district, the twice-a day
city delivery system might be adyan-
tageous after the coming commission has
completed its work, which includes the
adoption of uniform system OF naming
and numbering OF streets.
Under existing conditions there are
many Implications of street names in
the county, because of the scattered
communities. Due to its rapid growth,
however, the commission plans to elimi-

are concerned there is absolutely no sys-
tenn, residents taking numbers that seem
practical to them or having no numbers
at all.
RoSslyn, itself, being business sec
ton, could not benefit by the change, 1t
was said today by John E. Fowler, presl-
dent of the Arlington Trust Co, because
the business men there prefer To have
their mail distributed through post Of
flee SO that they may get 1t whenever
they wish. This is especially true in the
mornings. when they can have their
mail as soon as their places Of business
are open.
With this in mind Fowler and oth'
RosSlyn business men are per1ectii!S
plans whereby they may seek the reten-
ton of the post Office through Senator
Claude Swanson and Representative r.
Walton Moore.
There are several residential sections
that come under this office, however.

There is nothing better than a
change to avoid the monotony that
tries to creep into everyday af-
fairs. Your home paper having
worn the same style of title head
ing for sixteen years is entitled
to a new bonnet, a different style
of skypiece.
The editor is tired of the old
"all cap" letters. They have come
to look stiff and angular and lack
ing in the appeal that m from
curves. Take a good look at the
line, readers. Don't you like it
better?
This issue, the occasion of be-
ginning the 18th volume of Wolf
Points pioneer newspaper, seems
to be a fitting time to replace the
old with the new. The old letters
have served their time and served
their purpose. Some of them are

through the press at least a mil
lion times. Let's let them take a
