Never Slipped a Trip Nor Had the Grip.

Comrade Charley Fox, who next week begins carrying the mail to ' and from the depot, has been car- ' rying on one or the other of the , country star routes for six years, 1 going every day of the week ex- ' cept Sundays During all that . time he has missed only one trip and i never has been behind a single time. The one trip he missed was caused by a frightful snow storm about two years ago, which blook- ' ed all the roads and made it impossible for him to get through. But bad as it was he made a start aitd got several miles out that day.
