Hammond Post Office By drectfon of the Post Office Department, the attention of patrons of this office is invited to the advantages of providing facilities for the receipt of their mail 6y erecting conveniently accessible boxes or cutting suitable slots In their doors. Such action would enable the postmaster to give' a prompter and better delivery service with the means at his disposal, since the carriers can cover much more territory In less time if not compelled to wait for an answer of their ring. Private receptacles for mall are also a great convenience to the householder, obviating the necessity of responding to the carrier's call .at -inconvenient moments and permitting safe delivery of mail in the absence of members of the household. They also prevent the occasional necessity f" a carrier's proceeding on his route without de. liveriitg mail because a failure to answer' hie ring within a reasonable time, and enable him to make deliveries to patrons, living or or near the end of the route at an earlier hour ' ' ' .'' ' It has been shown by actual experience that the benefits derived by patrons of. city delivery from the use of such receptacles far outweigh the small expense involved. As this office Is interested in furnishing the best possible service at the least expense, your compliance with the foregoing suggestions wjll be much appreciated., Respectfully, F. R.
