POSTAL IMPROVEMENT WEEK IS GBSERVED

May 1 Sees Inaugurated First * General Campaign of - Kind in Service. :

« Without the Postal Service, business would languish In a day, and be at a standstill in a week. Public opinion would die of dry rot. Sectional hatred .or prejudice only would flourish, and narrow-mindedness thrive. : ‘ . It is the biggest distinctive business In the world and it comes nearer to the innermost interests of a greater num‘ber of men and women than any other institution on .é@rth. No private business, however widespread, touches so many lives so often or sharply; no church reaches into so many souls, flutters so many pulses, has so many human beings dependent on its ministrations. 5 § ~ “Postal Improvement: Week” has been set for May 1, by the Postmaster General. This is the first general campaign of its kind in the Postal Service for several decades. Business men and §lmeir organizations, large users of the mail, newspapers, motion pictures, advertisers, and the entire organization of 326,000 postal workers are to be enlisted in this country-wide campaign of Interest in postal Improvements. Your help is vital. = Address your letters plainly with pen or typewriter, Give street address. Spell out name of State, don’t abbreviate. Put your return address In the upper left hand corner of envelope (not on the back) and always look at your letter before dropping in the mall to see if it is properly addressed. This care In the use of the mails is for your benefit and speeds up the dispatch and delivery of mail matter. : 5 ' If you have any complaintg of poor -service make them to your postmaster. He has instructions to investigate them ‘and report to the departmgnt.

< COURTESY

It sticks in human relations like postage stamps on letters. The POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT expects it to be used by its postmasters and employees in *dealing with the public. ‘ ‘ : . Help them in its use beginning with POSTAL IMPROVEMENT WEEK, May 1-6, 1922. .

"THANK YOU

WITHOUT STREET ADDRESS YOUR MAIL IS DELAYED AT OFFICE OF DELIVERY

The Dead Letter Office has been in existence ever since Ben Franklin started our postal service. Even then people addressed mail to Mr. Ezekiel Smithers, ‘“Atlantic Coast,” and expected Ben to know just where Zeke lived. : ; Perhaps they had Zeke’s address in letters up in the garret, maybe a chest full of ’em, but then it was easier to let Ben hunt Zeke. Today people are addressing letters to John Smith, New York, N. Y., or Chicago, 111., thinking Uncle Sam can locate him, which is just as incomplete as was Zeke’s ad~ dress of yore. The Postoffice Department asks you to put the number and street in the address. It helps you.

How do you expect the Postal Clerk to know whether you mean Trinidad, California, or Trinidad, Colorado? '~ ALWAYS SPELL OUT THE NAME OF THE STATE IN FULL IN THE ADDRESS. ' “MORE BUSINESS v . . IN GOVERNMENT” . This apt phrase was used in President Harding’s first message to Congress and applies particularly in postal management where pastmasters are being impressed with the fact that they are managers of local branches of the biggest business in the world.

HERE COMES A STRANGER! Let'si inake eur post office look neat, Mr. Postmastgr. Straighten up the rural letter bbx, Mr. Farmer. Tidy up' some, Mr. Rural Carrler. First, impressions are lasting.
