V D A number of Anderson people are j much alarmed over a rumor heard on the streets to the effect that the gov ernment is, contemplating doing away with the every day delivery of mail on jonie of the rural free delivery routes in Anderson county and making the service every other day instead. Whether or not the report heard here is authentic remains to be seen, but grave apprehensions are being enter tained and considerable fear is evinced 1 that there may be some truth in the rumor.
