Jasper County Democrat, Volume 23, Number 19, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 June 1920 — NO RURAL DELIVERY MONDAY [ARTICLE]

NO RURAL DELIVERY MONDAY

Made Papers 3 Days Late A Few Miles Away. The packages of Democrat’s for Parr and Parr rural route failed to reach their destination again Saturday. It has become quite the usuar thing for our papers to be from one to three days late In reaching their destinations, and we have sent in complaint after complaint to the postoffie department and get just about as much satisfaction in the replies as one gets from bellowing at the moon. The what-the-devil-are-you-going-to-do-about-it spirit seems to premate all branches of the postal service and apparently about all one can do is grin (also cuss) and bear it. The local postofflce has tried to help us out In numerous Instances, but it gets little farther than our own efforts.
