Hurl- sert was recently appointed rural car- sier for this town and succeeded for- mer Carrier Williams whose resigna- tion became effective about a month ago. At that time, Hurlbert took the exafhination for the office and re- seived his appointment. If accepted for service another examination for the appointment of a carrier for this town will have to be held. Hurlbert has been an efficient carrier and, as he served as assistant carrier during the term of Mr. Willlams, he was well acquainted with the route when he received his appointment. As therg is at present no acting assist- int, the appointment of a new man will doubtless mean considerable work to break him in on the long and scattered route now covered by Hurl- bert Three brothers are also in- luded in this group which will be xamined. They are Max, Myer and Abe :Edelson. The three reside on Berlin street. This is the first time ‘hat 8 many have heen summoned from one family to appear for exam- nation at once. If all three of the voung men are accepted for service and are inducted nto the service, it will give this town he record of having three families ¢#h three men each in the service. | The other families are Woods and Corr.
