postollice in Newburry Coutity where
aill of thle pantronls '.ond 'or t hvir limil
every day.
As to those at St.. I.1kes whl have
litbs andl(] get their mail daily. Tht
editor of The Voice declares uhat "the
members of such club <,I- cilbs coild
easily get- their matil front l'ros)et ity
oil the days that the mi1ail carrier did
not, t'aVL!l thei' oute.OIC" We woild like

could not, "easily" gel our. 1111111 from
I'rosperity t i ree ies s week. i''irther
says the editor, "Oil the days the (ir
ier did wt,avel they would have the 1
mail delivered at, t.heir doors " We do
not quite understand wht, he mcanls
by "t,i their doors." Aecordinig to the
scihledile in The \'oice, St.. Ilike's vomn
lullnit,y wviill live delivery hoxes at, the
following places: St. Luke's postoflice,
Fellers' store, Harmon pliee, Chesiey

which we havo roughly ot.tlined, is

there is not it Sin11gle rural delivery box

the free ruitl delivery, its ouit.linled in
The Voice, is to deliver the util to a
1t'rge niuiber. of the patrols of St.
Luke's postollice "at, their doors" we
canillot see.
Agaiiii, says the editor, "It would not,
be fair to dely it large majority of the
