Examinations For
Fourth Class Postmasters.
Washington, 1. There will be
no scarcity of applicants for the
580 postmasterships in North
Carolina of the fourth class pay
ing between SISO and SIOOO a
year, which are to be shaken
up by the holding of examinati jns
within the next few months,
judging from the thousands of
letters of inquiry being received
in Washington by the Cong-ess

taking the examinations.
There has been a continual
flood of letters from people all
over the State regarding these
examinations ever since Presi
dent Wilson on May 17 issued an
order providing that all fourth
class- postmasters should submit
to a competitive Civil Service
examination. But this stream
of letters has been more than
tripled since the passage of the
Urgent Deficiency Appropriation
bill about two weeks ago carry
ing the funds to defray the ex
penses of the examination. The
letters of inquiry are varied
in their character and ask for all
sorts of information such as:
Where will the examination be
held: When will it be held:
Where shall 1 set the papers:
Am I too old to take the exam
ination, etc.
