Is not the Smith Lever bill e bill in troduced Jointly hy Hoke Smith of Georgia and Representative Lever of South Carolina?

Mrs. J. F. Dunlap and Mr. Marshall Dunlap and family of Whitefield spent the week end with Rev. and Mrs. J. T| Mann." Miss Sallie Geer who has been visit ing relatives near Iva has returned home. Although late in doing so. I wish publicly to express to our oflieient let ter carrier. Mr.. Luther'Major, appre ciation on acount of improved mail service made possible by his put ting Into commission an automobile. As a result we receive mail much earlier than heretofore. Let patrons co-operate in every way possible as a mark of appreciation:' There are many ways in which'this can be done. Barents can sec tb lt.. that their lit tle ones leave nothing near boxes that would Injure the tires. Patrons can ab o help by igiving rough places in the roads, i.eeded attention. A few shovels, of cirt.may accomplish much in tb f s direction, and time thus spent will not be missed. The importance of rural mail service .is so apparent as to need no comment, and with thc. purchase by carrion?, pf machines has. come a renewed call 'lb those In charge of ? road wbrlv throughout thc country to, give said carriers au good roads as Uley glvo tho,pleasure-seek ing travellers, oil tiiachineu. etc., be tween the v?riouR towns. TrUe, car riers receive an 'Ocenrtonal raise in salary, and some may.-say* they are well paid for their sorviue. but it is ? fact, nevertheless, that, faithful car riers earn ev-ry cent they receive; and the fact that' many'bffcthem have gone to extra expense' to1 give their patrons quicker service ought to menn beter roads for them to travel. This I believe will be rcallz?jL, The above has been Written, not because of any known complaint by carriers, but as a mark of appreciation for tiieir service.
