POSTAL IMPROVEMENT
WEEK IS OBSERVED
May 1 Sees Inaugurated First
General Campaign of
Kind in Service.
Without the Postal Service, business
would languish In a day. and be at a
standstill in a week. Public opinion
would die of dry rot. Sectional hatred
or prejudice only would flourish, and
narrow-mindedness thrive.
It Is the biggest distinctive business
In the world and It comes nearer to the
Innermost Interests of a greater num
ber of men and women than any other
Institution on earth. No private busi
ness, hhwever widespread, touches so
many lives so often or sharply; no
church reaches into so many souls,
flutters So rnauy pulses, has so many
human beings dependent on Its min
istrations.
“Poatal Improvement Week" has
been set for May 1, by the Postmaster
General. This Is the first general cam
paign of Its kind In the Postal Service
for several decades. Business men
and their organizations, large users of
the mall, newspapers, motion pictures,
advertisers, and the entire organiza
tion of ililfl.OOO postal workers are to be
enlisted In this country-wide campaign
of Interest In postal Improvements.
Your help Is vital. Address your let
ters plainly with pen or typewriter.
Give street address. Spell out name
of State, don’t abbreviate. Put your
return address In the upper left hpnd
corner of envelope (not on the back)
and always look at your letter before
dropping In the mail to see If It is
properly addressed. This care In the
use of the mails Is for your benefit and
speeds up the dispatch and delivery
of mall matter.
If you have any complaints of poor
service make them to your postmaster.
He has Instructions to investigate them
and report to the department.
