RURAL ROUTE FOR KNIMAN.

At Least Route Has Been Inspected and Reported On Favorably. There Is talk of a rural mall route out of Kniman. The posed route has been examined and was gone over by the inspector last week and he will report favorably, we are told. The proposed route will run west from the postoffice to the Kniman school house, thence north 1 mile to the Kramer corner, thence west 1 mile to the Lewark corner, north 1 mile to the township line, west 1% miles, 4 miles south to Virgie school house, 1 % miles east to the Davis corner, 1 mile north to the Boyle corner, 1 % miles east to the Kennedy corner, 2 miles south to the Jungles corner, 2 miles east to Laura, 3 miles north to the Wagner corner, 3 mites west to .Kniman. . 1 E, This route will be 22 miles long ’’and 93 patrons will be served. The new route, if established, will probably do away with the postoffices at Virgie and Laura. Volney M. Peer of Kniman has worked the proposition up and will probably be among those who take the examination for carrier.
