R.F.D. MAIL BOX GETS NEW LOOK!

After more than half a century of noble service, that old familiar guardian of the American roadway-the rural mail box-has been given a long overdue face-lifting. The familiar R.F.D. mail box has lately moved from the rural areas into suburban ranch homes; in every style and construction detail it is like the model approved and specified by the United States Post Office Department way back in 1915. Two years ago, however, with a

epartment allowed the use of a more attractively designed box - so long as functional and design details were not omitted. Sears, Roebuck and Co., which has sold R.F.D. boxes to American rural customers for more than half a century, was among the first manufacturers and distributors to come out with a modern rural box. It is known that almost 10 million families are today served by rural free delivery, and the oldfashioned mail hex is a familiar sight in every state of the nation. But just as the face of America

is constantly changing, so will the Old rural mail boxes slowly disappear—to be reolaced by the “new look” for R.F.D.

COATESVILLE NEWS Dr. John Ellett, prominent Coatesville physician, luckly received no permanent injuries last Wednesday while working on the wiring in the building he is remodeling in downtown Coatesville. He was standing on a step ladder holding the electric wire in his hand when his ear touched a metal pipe. This grounded the electric current making a complete circuit. He was thrown or fell from the ladder where he was found by Wayne Kivett, a local plummer who was also working on the remodeling job. Mr. Kivett worked with Dr. Ellett some time before he regained conscienceness. An east bound Pennsylvania freight train had its engine and

Medical checkups ... prescriptions . . . eye glasses . , . visits to the dentist . . . insurance purchases . . . car tune-ups—these ire some of the everyday experiences that bring you into contact

vith a large number of specialists. You probably meet Dr. Ben Casey, TV’s neurosurgeon, once

a week. His portrayed field of medicine is a specialty that requires even more training than the eight years of pre-med and medical schooling and one year of interning necessary to qualify

as a general practitioner. A century ago, specialists

were a small minority of U.S. physicians; todav, nearly half of America’s doctors—according to information supplied by Compton’* Pictured Encyclopedia, an estimated 45% — are

specialists! The field of surgery

alone includes, such specialties as abdominal surgery, thoracic surgery (inside the chest), orthopedic surgery (operations on

bones, joints and muscles), plas-

tic surgery, cardiovascular (heart and blood vessel) surgery,

as well as Ben Casey’s TV province, surgery on nerves and

brain.

Specialization in dentistry, too, has grown. The Encyclopedia Britannica cites orthodontia, (which deals with crook''' 1 or ir-

regular teeth), phosthodontia (denture work), pedodontia (children’s dentistry), and oral surgery—among many others. A good insurance agent is also a specialist in his field. According to experts at The Travelers Insurance Companies, he is able to evaluate your needs and design adequate protection for you and your family without adding expensive fripperies. Independent agents who represent The Travelers are trained in the world’s oldest insurance schooL They provide you with: an insurance program with no over-

lapping coverages; information and explanations about new kinds of insurance and insurance “packages”; and a review of your insurance program at

regular intervals.

Insurance is a personal possession; although it is possible to buy it “over the counter”, many people prefer the specialized attention and know-how of a family insurance agent He’s a specialist in his field.
