Air mail comes to most of the Important towns, as well as the larger cities, the day following the date of mailing, and while not used by a large number of our cit izens, it is a service that will be used more and more and in a short time will be commonly used in place of the slower mail method The difference in cost Is compara tively small three cents for regu lar mall; six cents for air mail Physicians, attorneys, commercial men, and institutions all realize, or soon will, the importance of this efficient system of transportation. Arthur Bushman, Eugene Mill and Elevator It ia quite apparent that there Is a universal desire on the part of mankind to overcome distance or space and time. This Is evident in many of our modem inventions: especially so in the telegraph, telephone and radio. The airplane, too, is an offspring of this desire. With the coming of the airplane and the development of aviation many new services (to a great de gree eliminating distance and time) have been established for the con venience fo the public. Air mall Is outstanding as one of these services, even though it still is far from being generally pat ronized. The purpose of Air Mail Week, obviously, is to better ac quaint the American people with this great 24-hour-a-day service and to impress them with its out standing features, safety, economy, speed. J. E. Hayward, Williams Store Air mail is now well established as the fastest economical method of communication. For the retailer, airmail facili tates, at little cost, the receiving of timely style and market news, the following up of new fashions, and the handling of rush and spe cial orders. Wlnsor Calkins, Attorney Legal documents cannot be exchanged i oy wire or telephone. The airmail has been and will be the solution. From the standpoint of the legal profession the airmail is invaluable for efficlent.quick and economical service. Jack Luckey, president, cham ber of commerce Air mail service instead of being a novelty is fast becoming a necessity of the Amer ican business man. Small parts for emergency repairs, and similar ar ticles can now be ordered and de livered from coast to coast points which formerly took two weeks or longer. Many deliveries of legal papers, etc., are now speeded ud which were impossible to send by i wire. Business letters or inquiries between the middle west and east : coast points, at a very small addi tional cost, are now possible at less man hall the former time by regu lar mail. The more air mail which leaves the Eugene post office, the sooner Eugene will be given direct air mail service. Howard Stroud, manager, Mont- somrry warn xne value of air i mail, in merchandising, fills a need unheard of, Just a few years iago. Especially Is air mail and lair express, of value, when it j comes to what is termed in mer- 1 1 chandising, "soft lines." Take for j instance fashion creations! Always something new and different com j ing up in the eastern fashion cen ters. A new creation in New York, can be on sale In a Eugene store In 30 hours. I I This Is Just one of the many ' services offered to the general pub 1 lie, by air mail and air express, i Such service to the business man, is of untold value, when it comes to nurned, detailed reports, orders, , facts and figures. ith the ever growing use of air mail, there is every reason to be lieve that eventually Eugene should be an air mail stop. We, as cit izens of this community, should enthusiastically devote our energy toward securing air mail service in Eugene. Hay Glass, Pioneer Grocery Business of today is conducted at a much faster pace than In former years. Distances are becoming shorter due to improved meihoHc of transportation and communica " lion. j Air mail has been one of the sreatest facton in speeding up communications, saving as much three Hav between local and eastern markets. Naturally this Is a great advantage over the form er postal service, it giving us in formation quickly and accurately, which ia necessary in our present day system of business.

Three Cities Seek Opening Of Pass .
