GRESHAM WITHOUT STREET ADDRESS HUMANIZING THE POSTAL SERVICE YOUR MAIL IS DELAYED AT OFFICE OF DELIVERY T he Dead L etter Office has been In existence ever since Ben Franklin Started e a r postal service. Even then people addressed mall to Mr. Eaeklel Bmlthers, “A tlantic Coast,** and ex pected Ben to know Just where Zeke lived. P erhaps they had Zeke’s address In letters up In the garret, maybe a chest foil of 'em, b at then tt was easier to let Ben hunt Zeke. Today people are addressing letters to John Smith, New York, N. Y , or Chicago, 111., thinking Uncle Sam can locate him, which Is Just as Incomplete as was Zeke's ad dress of yore. The Postofflce D epart ment asks you to put the number and street In the address. It helps you. “T here la no unim portant person or p art of oar service. It Is a total of hornan units and their co-operation Is the key to Its success. In Its last analysis, postal duties are accommo dations performed for our neighbors and friends and should be so regarded, rather than as a hired service per formed for an absentee employer.”— Postm aster General H ubert Work.
