j —
Postmaster W. D. Adair states that
beginning Saturday, March 3, win
dow service at the local post office
will close at 1 p.m. This closing hour
for Saturdays is in line with sched
ules followed by other post offices of
this area. The public is -asked to ar
range their schedules so" that they
can attend to their business at the
post office Saturday mornings. Out
going mails will be dispatched as
usual.

CARD OF THANKS
I wish to take this opportunity to
thank my friends, relatives and
neighbors who were so kind to me

ness. I especially want to thank the
doctors and nurses at Hays hospital.

were deeply appreciated.
