OUR NEW POSTOFFICE
Best Equipped One in West Side
Counties.
Postmaster C. O. CoaJ informs us
this morning that if nothing happens,
he will be able to move into hi- new
quarters by neat Monday probably
Haturday night. Under his supervision
we looked over the room, and after in
spection cannot blame him and his ef
ficient force for the pride which they
feel ill sooii being able to work in such
convenient and commodious a building.
There will be MO boxes altogether, all
on the left hand as you enter, and 1(H)
of them being of the latest combination
lock pattern. They are of metal, and
all you have to do is to know your
combination, the carrying of a key liv
ing altogether done away w ith. The
Iront of the brick has two large plate
glass windows and double doors and on
entering you find yourself in a large lob
by It!) feci wide and about half of it :I2
feel long, excepting the space taken up
by the distributing department. Hack
of this is a large room for the sorting
of mail and the clerical work. The rur
al route carriers will receive and take
out their mail from the side door on the
allev, and will not interfere in any wav
with patrons of the lobby. They will
also be especially well fixed for sorting
their mail and have abundant loom.
The office will be heated bv steam, have
plenty of electric lights, city water, toi
let and other conveniences. There are
two delivery windows. The two in
front will now be used for mail distribu
tion and money order business, but in
the future, when the town grows a lit
tle more and additional help is secured
Postmaster Coad will use the one at the
end of the lobby for money order and
postal business and have stamp and de
livery widows at the front. The inte
rior finish and decorations are superb,
ami is the work of those skilled urtists,
Holman it Dungan. They have surely
done a nice job and made our postotlice
a credit to a town of three tun -s its
size. Well may Mr. it. E. Williams,
the owner of the brick, ho proud of his
accomplishment, and the business hous
es he has built up on Court street.
