Murphy is try- ing to get the business houses of the city, and people generally, to help . themselves and help the postoffice force as well by cyltivating the habit of early mailing of their mail for New York insteaq of dumping all into the pos!oflice in a heap at the end of the day. The postmaster advises that batches . of mail should be sent'to the pest- office several times.during the day instead of saving it all up to hring at once. This new plan would facili- tate the handling of the mail by the postoffice force, as it can be readily - seen that the work on a large quan- tity of mail would not have to be dons all at once late in the day. In the case of mail for New York, especially, it”would also meny times mean early Gelivery there for that mail goes down from here to New London on the 7.10 train, and if this train happens to be late the New York connection is miss- ed, and it is several hours before an- other mail train for New York goes : through New London. By mailing at least part of their letters in time for the’ earlier afternoon train from here, - merchants would be certain that the ., letters- would have early delivery in New York. 2 Church & Allen 15 Main Street FUNERAL DIRECTORS EMBALMERS Lady Assistant Telephone 328-3 HENRY E.
