PATRONS ASKED TO CO-OPERATE WITH RllUIi MAIL CARRIERS By direction of the post office de partment, postmasters throughout the country have recently made an Inspection of the rural routes from their offices. The purpose was that they might ascortaln by personal ob servation and niako report whether the roads were In good condition tor travel, the routes well arranged, the boxes properly erected, so as to be easily reached by the carriers without difficulty and without ob structing traffic, the carriers serving tbelr routes as officially prescribed, the schedule obsorved, and whether the families served were satisfied with the service rendered, or there were Improvements which could be BURBOsted In the Intoreat of the pat rons or the department. It became necessary, In connection with the inspections, to request many patrons to take action to the end that their boxes might conform with the regulations as to kind, condition,, location, or height, and In having the name of the owner plainly printed on them. Also, to bring to the attention' For Such A Short there are two mighty important birthdays crowded into February, and both Washington and Lincoln were vigorous advocates of thrift. Could there be a more fitting tribute to the memory of these two great men of America than the opening or increasing of a savings account f The Citizens Bank Ashland, Oregon (JXnkUnlU U'eKTUi ibneWbAM tadi W awi aWieBaf UBJUl BMeaai It is the desire of the department and its purpose,' to provide adequate and convenient service, so far at may be possible, to all persons residing, in rurai -omini, utiles, but this end can not t tutu. aed Without the full co-operati jn of .he patrons in the dCurts of postm asters and carrier to jerve the n promptly, regularly and sa.iatactonly. Whatever facilitates the work of the carrier is of direct benefit to the patrons, for the greater the ease and speed with which a carrier may cover his route, the earlier and better the service afforded. So, patrons of rural delivery can greatly help themselves by helping their carrier, seeing to It that roads are kept In good condition and promptly opened after storms, by keeping the approaches to their box es clear, and by promptly and will ingly correcting any irregularities af fecting their boxes when asked to do so. Another grout assistance that pat rons can render carriers Is by keep ing themselves supplied with and us ing stamps Instead of placing un stamped mall, with money for the purchase of the required postage, In the boxes. This delays the carrier and sometimes Imposes a great hard ship on him, especially In cold or 1 8tormy weather. If preferred, stamo- jej envelopes, either printed or plain, i may be obtained rrom the carrier, are of good quality, and cost but lit- tie more than the value of the stamps upon them, and are redeem able at the value of the stamps If damaged, but returned in a practic ally whole condition. If necessary to place money In a box, It should be put in a coin-holding receptacle or be properly wrapped so as to be eas ily picked up by the carrier. Money for the purchase of money orders should not be left In the boxes but should be handed to the carrier and a receipt obtained.
