The project began, in February 1950, and has Just been approved. ' The heavy growth of population of the rural areas served by the rural routes from the local office necessitated the change, as pres ent carriers are traveling about 64 to 69 miles daily, Postmaster Howell said that spe cial notices would be put in the boxes of every patron advising them of their new route number, in the event of a change. Many will remain on the same route, it was explained. The new route one will cover 31,55 miles, and cover in general, the Hazel wood, Hyatt Creek, Sau nook, Aliens Creek and Ninevah areas. . . The new route two will begin at Mauney Cove, and cover Dellwood, Maggie, Jonathan Creek, Iron Duff areas. The mileage is even 62 miles The new route three Is 46.35 miles, and will embrace Mauney Cove, Lake Junaluska, Howell Mill Road, RatclllTe Cove, Francis Cove (See Post Office Pace 8 WelDco Em Give Hosp)itco lovees WilB Pretty soon, every patient in the H.ivwood County Hosoital will have ?a,4l9;f,ac tng made possible by"the 310 em ployees of Wellco Shoe Corpora tion who have pledged themselves tfl pay for the $5000 installation.
