Rural Free Delivery. 1
Very, very well do I remember
the day when rural free delivery
of mail began from Monticello.
It was one rainy, cold day the first
Saturday in February, nineteen
hundred and two. {The amount of
mail then handled could have al
most been carried in one's pockets,
From the beginning until the
‘month just gone there has been a
considerable increase, and below
‘we give figures that are facts. A
mount of mail delivered in Febru
ary, 1902, registered mail 1; letters
327; newspapers 597 ; postal cards
39; circulars 171; packages so.
Total delivered 1185. Peices cal
lected, registered 1; money order
applications 5; letters 242; postal
cards 21; packages 2; total collec
rted 266; total number peices de
livered and collected 1441.
Here we give the amount hand
led in October 1903. Delivered

(Rest assurred, brother Hays,
that such interesting letters, like
the above, will never fail to find a
place in our columns as long as we
are in business, and our journalis
tic star was never brighter than to
day. Mainly through the superb
support of our correspondents is
this star so bright, and today its
light radiates nearly every home
in Jasper county. The rural free
delivery system is a great blessing
to the farmers of the country.
It will do more to encourage edu-‘
cational interests in the rural dis
tricts than any other system. Mayl
it become so perfect that no
man need feel himself isolated and
ignorant of the world's doings.
