Morrison of Chesterland, Ohio states that he has a concern about the erratic span of time for the receipt of the Bulletin. He states that the receipt period varies from 4 to 8 days and wants to know if our staff mails his issue on the same date that it is placed on the newstand in Tryon. He goes on to say that he believes the paper should arrive in a regular unison of every 4 days and not in bunches of every 8 days. Mr. Morrison we couldn’t agree with you more. The Bulletins are mailed every day. We ask the Postmaster to run checks to see what the trouble is, but nothing ever seems to be corrected. Some postal employee along the way lets them stack up (probably in a separation center). We will take this up with the Postmaster also.
