MAIL ON HOLIDAYS. “Rural Grumbler” Wr:i to New York Paper from Norwich Town. “Rural Grumbler," writing from Norwich Town to a New York paper of Monday, says: Another holiday is nearing—it falls on Saturday, too—and carriers on rural free delivery routes in the nation are entitled to a holiday. This means that people served on such routes must go without newspapers or mail from the delivery on Friday morning to that on the following Monday morning—72 hours. This is a hardship in many ways, the one weak spot in our United States postal service. It is perfectly proper for the hard- worked regular carriers to have their day off, but thousands in every state want their mail, and do not wish to ‘wait 72 bours for it. Under the old conditions, i. e, those of small villages or town postoffices, it would have been easy for one neighbor to drive to the office during the hour it is open on Memorial day and get the mail for his locality. Under the new regime, -however, three or four small offices are eliminated, and service is from one central point, in some large city office. Carriers drive over routes 24 or 28 miles long, so that it is mani- festly impossible for patrons to get to the main office during the hours it is opened on that day. Saturday is a busy day in the coun- try; but with sundu the rural folk have time to read, and the missing of papers and letters means a cruel and unpecessary deprivation. Again, mer chants whe depend on mail order busi- ness are heavy losers. since many ocity steres make a point of offering special y ns. Then, too, letters held over 48 or 58 er 72 heurs may co! tain messages of life or death, lmpor- tant business orders, et al. Now, nobedy weuld begrudge the regular earriers their heliday: but the whole peeple have seme rights in the premises. Since ne cengressman ap- pears eager to win the piaudits and Pomat gratitude of his eenstituents, it seems up to the newspapers to start a crusade to have this crying evil eor- rected. This can be done simply and easily. By all means give the men a day off, but let their substftutes—who won't balk at an extra day's pay— drive over their routes on the holiday. ‘With the money the postoffice depart- ment is on parcel post it can well afford to stand the strain of Nv- In( hundreds -of thousands of patrons ng rural routes served by s sin- pll means. Heavy though the durden rural taxes, it is safe to wager that u the -\‘afla department considers itself tW poor not a single mmmc. would demur paying out of his own to be able to secure his papers Dbefore the news had grown mossy, and his mail when it is of some use.

It seemed likely that if- more of the schools had competed, they would also have counted prize winners among their scholars in the essay wrrung.
