Felkner of Milford and Everett W. Smith of North Webster, an-| nounced today the five-digit ZIP Code for their towns. Milford’s number is 46542 and North Webster’s is 46555. “Everyone in Milford and North Webster will use this ZIP code on all his correspondence to speed mail deliveries and reduce the chance of missent mail,” the postmasters said. ZIP Code, the Post Office Department’s revolutionary new system of improved mail dispatched and delivery, goes into effect nationally on July 1. The postmaster stressed the importance of all citizens in Milford and North Webster learning their city’s ZIP Code and ‘using it in their return address on all correspondence. In answering mail, they said, ZIP Codes taken from addresses on incoming mail should be used. “The ZIP Code is literally the last word in mail addressing,” the postmasters said. “It should follow the city and state in addresses." An example would be: The MailJournal, Box 177* Milford, Indiana, 46542. The new ZIP Code plan, 'the postmasters said, for the first time will permit the Post Office Department to short-cut repeated address reading. “The address on mail must often be read as eight or ten times by postal employees, to get it to the proper destination,” they said. “Each handling slows the process of mail dispatch and adds to the opportunity for human -.error. “With ZIP Code, a clerk needs only to glance at the code to know immediately to what national area, state, and post office the letter is destined, and to speed it on its way, cutting up to 24-hours off the time between deposit and delivery.” They said that when ZIP Code is in full swing, the United States will have “The most modern system of mail distribution and delivery in existence.” SYRACUSE FIRE DEPT. MAKES EMERGENCY RUNS The Syracuse fire department made three emergency runs Sunday, the first at 2:55 to Waco Beach where first aid was given Sally Flowler of Fort Wayne, at 3:10 another run was made to Lelands addition, first aid here was given to Timmey Feighner, at 5:45 another run was made ■, to Morrison Island where four persons were involved in a one-car accident, treated at the Goshen hospital and later released were, Verl Lindzy of r 3, Syracuse, his wife and two passengers.
