THIRTY YEARS OF R. F. D.
Still unsung, but not less great for that,
is the saga of the rural mail carrier, that
obscuie and faithful servant who in fair
weather and foul gets Uncle Sam’s mails
through. On occasion he willingly braves
the dangers of storm, winter or flood to
carry on for his government and thos<
families back in the hills and vales ever
waiting to hear, through him, from the
outside world. There are times of ad­
venture, romance and danger in the us­
ually uneventful life of the “R.F.D.” ear­
lier.
