We have heard some traveling men, who live in Newberry, say they did not understand why the outer door of the postoffice was closed at Newberry at nine o'clock. In other towns the size of Newberry the outer door . was left open all nignt aiiu ^jsuud ^ having lock boxes could get their mail ^ at any time during the night. That . sometimes when they came in on the ' i< nine o'clock train it was rather im- ! portant for them to get their mail that I. night. It may be that these other j ( trt-orrK! have nisht trains and the post- 1 office has a night man. Before the j , building of the new postoffice the own- :, i4 er of a lock box could get his mail at any time of the night, but now he ^ ~iust call before nine o'clock or wait until seven the next morning. , There is another point on which might be worth looking into in I ! t i.* o~w*Q crn tills connection. OU1UC LUXjl w 1?5V/ when the train from Greenville! . arrived in Newberry a little j before nine o'clock the mail on that train was distributed to the boxes, i i and then when the schedule was changed to five minutes after nine the distribution of the mail stopped, and upon inquiry at the postoffice we were nformed that the change in the schedule /was the cause. That is to say, that all mails coming on trains arriving before nine o'clock at night' had to be distributed, and when the schedule changed to five minutes after ! nine it was not required. The point worth investigating is now that the i schedule has been changed so that the train arrives before nine, why is i mail not. distributed. Possibly if" I Postmaster Hill would look into this matter it might be the means of giving him an additional clerk to handle he night mail and the postofiice out*vr door might be kept open a little 'Dnger than nine. This is not said in '.he spirit of criticism but mainly with. { 3. view of helping the service. At iast it is worth while looking into. The mail, we understand, which comes on the night train is delivered j t the postoffice the same night but uot distributed until the next morning. t ABOUT THE KOADS. Supervisor Chappell is certainly * * * *? xl T T getting in Denina mose who nave nut paid the commutation tax and he is doing some good work on the roads. There seems to be a lot who have not . aid. If you have not paid jou just as well get ready to do six days work on the roads for the supervisor has your name and you be notified. Last week work was being done around Old Town and on the main oads towards Chappells. A drive out ->ver this road shows that some good work lias "been done.

He has had as many as for- ] ty in one squad. Supervisor Chappell left on Monday for the Vaunghville section where he has about fortv hands who have not paid. These will be put t?> work on the roads in that section and kept for the full six days.* One section of the chain gang under I Mr. Koon was moved on Monday down | in No. 10 township and will work in h'not eor>+i.-\n fnr covbm!
