B. “Ben” Belk, of the railway mail service. The 18,000 reasons can be lumped and dis- missed as onc—there are that many railway mail clerks. Besides, as Mr. Belk showed, they are minor causes of delay, while th: main causes are the work of the senders of the letters. Cause No. 1 he showe? by large printed names of towns. One was “Foreside,” the sther “Fordates.” The mail clerk has to decipher the former as “Forsyth, Mont.” the other as “Fort Yates, N. D.” Some of the misspelled names do not permit of such ready deciphering anc the delay to the letters is greater, he said. Let P. O. Mail, He Says A second cause of delay is absence of address or of stamps or of the state name; a third is putting the let- ter on the wrong train—in the op- Posite direction often—an indication that the shipping of the letter should be left to the postoffice, which knows the train on which each letter should be sent. Defective envelopes are an- other cause of delay Mr. Belk men- tioned. Letters sticking together be- cause a stamp is but partially glued on, mailing at hotels and let- ters through the slot of a “dead” mail car were other explanations given by Mr. Belk as to why letters are tardy. ‘Wrecks, tieups and “Ole” in the post- office concluded his reasons up to the minor fallibility of railway mail clerks. Traveled 1,500,000 Miles at Task ‘Mr. Belk will finish his quarter century in the service in August. In that time he has handled 1,500,000 pieces of registered mail and will have traveled the same number of miles, Plus a few more, all on his feet in a swaying car, in runs of from eight to 12 hours. Each trip is a benumbing affair, he said. The clerk, standing THEATRE Today and Wednesday Matinee Daily at 2:30 A magnificent story of the bond detween a father and son! 2:30 - 7:20-9 p. m.
