RURAL MAIL BOX
 WEEK DEDICATED
Postal Authorities Here to Assist in Nationwide
 Program

The Post Office department has set aside the week of August 1-6 as Clean Up Rural Mail Box Week" :" and as matter of community pride it is urged that every resident on the rural routes examine his box carefully and see whether it meas ureS up to the required standards.
 Rural mail boxes have been de- scribed as the symbol of rural America" Motorists along our highways, it is said, always judge a community by the condition of its rural mail boxes, and so it is a mat ter of practical business interest to give them proper attention. Clubs and civic organiza tions can play a prominent part in making Clean Up Rural Mail Box Week" success and it is hoped that they will CO., operate with the Postal department
 The official order issued by the Post Office department on this sub | ject says in part:
 "Unserviceable and unsightly ru- ral mail boxes both retard the de- livery of mail and detract from the natural scenic beauty of the high way. Particularly to be deplored are the non-regulation, old type, top- opening boxes, as well as makeshift receptacles which expose mail to the elements.
 Tt is the desire of the Depart ment not only to correct the above mentioned unsatisfactory situation but to encourage all rural mail pa- irons generally to possess pride in their boxes. both in the manner of erection, neat stenciling, and tidy appearance"

service has nothing more exciting to carry than a message from Mir John Smith to Mrs. John Smith telling her the fishing is so good that he won't be home for supper The Boatmen's Association dutifully relays this information to the little woman via telephone.
 Occasionally, however, the pigeons have helped save small boats and, once, a steam trawler. The messages they carried summoned the Coast Guard. So far, there has been no occasion to help rescue a member of the tuna fleet. The Freeporters are keeping their fingers crossed, but in the mean time, they're very proud of their pigeon flock.
 Wet Show
 A couple of slum kids from the teeming West Side have developed a distinctly New York version of the stunt that delights so many tourists on cruises to tropical or Oriental ports, the one wherein the tourist losses a coin over the side of the ship and a native dives down to fetch it.
 Using the fountain in Colum- bus Circle as their base of opera tions, these two youngsters stage tawdry little aquatic show nightly when the weather is warm.
 Someone losses penny or a nickle into the water. The young CT of the two Hops down into the dirty water of the fountain and feels for the coin. Should he find it, he brings it up and hands it to the older boy who secrets the precious coin in a pocket in his trunks. But should he fail, the older boy hauls out the hoard, hands 1t to the younger, then sets out to retrieve the sunken penny.
 First, he feels along the bottom with his feet. Then he executes a ridiculous dive that makes the crowd laugh. In moment, he rises triumphantly with the coin in hand. He takes back the hoard, pockets it along with the newest coin. Then the kids, shivering in the breeze, their blue lips and drawn faces re- minding one of couple of wet monkeys, stand and wait for more coins.
