According to postal officials the fig ures have been more than igtlsfao* tory, since they show ? d?cid?t in crease over each of the l>;i-.t two years. It Is seen from the report obtained that during the year 1912 from Jan? nary l to December 31, the Bales amounted to $31,033.04 and during the year 1913 from January 1 to De cember 'il, tho entire saios amounted to $34,212.08 an increase of $3,179.04 or 10 per cent during the past 12 months. This is very encouraging to those in the postoffice. Miss Eunice Hussell, assistant to the postmaBtur, said that there had been quite a decided Increase in the money order department during the last year, both in the money receiv ed and In money issued. During the year lt>l3 the Anderson postofllce is sued $76,181.28. a gain of $8.982.9? over the figures for the preceding year. The money order department, paid out during this year for money orders cashed at the local office, $48, 184:21; an Increase of $5,025.32 over Jhj? yenr of ]?12.
