E. Fye, assistant poatmaater.

This was done according to tbe postal regulations, which requires such to be made In April and October of each year. Features ot the examination are thoae concerning the condition of roads and approaches to and stopping places for the postman at the boxes, the arrangement ot the box on Its post, steadiness and painting of box and post. Box numbers are no longer required and are eliminated, due to the removals of patrons and consequent confusion. Tbe department requests patrons to paint white both tbe posts and the boxes, and that the name ef the head of each family served be painted in large plain black letters on the whlte-palnted box. Some post offices are said to be 100 per cent perfect on this point.

Most Perfect Box. "The most perfectly conditioned box we found on tbe entire Inspection was that of J. Tracey, on route 6," said Postmaster Sparks today. "His mall box waa mounted on an Iron post two Inches square and firmly sunk In a large concrete base. Both were painted white, and the name on the box was painted In black letters.

Tbe approach and stopping places also were Ideal." Mr. Turney states that it la neces sary for the post and box to be locat ed convenient of access by the car Tier, and should be at tbe proper height. "We do not like mall boxes to be mounted on buggy or wagon wheels affixed to the top of a post and pivoted," he said. "They are awkward and unsteady and I know frorn personal experience, when I was a carrier, the trouble tbey cause." After each box Is Inspected If there are recommendations to be made to the patron for correction or Improvement, It Is made by checking the sug gestion which Is printed on a regula tion form. This la given to the patron With a request that tbe box be made to conform with the department, rules.

"We found all of the (40 boxes served on the seveo rural routes out of this office in fair condition, but desire the painting of them all," concluded Postmaster Sparks.
