who said that in order for mail to
be handled in the quickest possible
manner, alt persons should use th*
key number of the addressee in
aH of their correspondence. Mr.

save as much as a day's time in

in all cases.

Friday nights, ? bunch of ua
fellows all get together over at
Bill Webster's place.
We don't play cards; we don't
sing or carry on.
We just sit quietly over a glass
or two of beer and talk about
world affairs and local politics,
and what not.
You mightn't think that just
setting and talking would be so
much fun. But it is.
And it's wonderful how friendly
talk over a glass or two of beer
can bring out the best in people
1~good sense, for instance, and
good fellowship, and tolerance.
From where I sit, there ought
to be more of this quiet tall
over a glass of beer. Helps folk'
understand each other? and b
more friendly to each other i
these trying times.
