tures.
More than 1,000 paintings, prints
and drawings submitted by amateur
artists from every State in the
Union were on exhibition during the
Festival. Each of the award win-
ners received individual criticism
of his prize winning entries from
a jury composed of noted artists.

to the winners. All prize-winning

Mr. Steelman has been painting
since 1949. “I always wanted to
paint”, he stated, ‘“so when the
family gave me a box of oils on
my birthday in March of that year,
I started in”.
Among his first efforts were four
murals on the walls of his home
on James Street, Kingston. They
depicted the four seasons in a
woodland theme.
About the same year his wife
started to paint, taking lessons from
Mrs. Julia Ashley.
Mr. Steelman entered his first
painting in an exhibition last year
in the Art News Show in New
York City.
Lassie and Freddy
At Loyalville Farm
Kenneth Kocher reports that the
Holstein calf, Lassie, which he pur-
chased at the Library Auction, is
a beauty and is enjoying all the
comforts of his farm .at Loyalville
where she is on a six-weeks Purina
Feeding program supplied by James
Huston Feed Service of Fernbrook.
The calf, given to the Auction
by Alfred Bronson’s Hill Top Farm,
was one of two animals which he
purchased at the Auction. The
other a ram, named Freddy, given
by Henry Pool, is a companion of
Lassie at Loyalville.
“This is the first livestock we've
put on the farm”, says Mrs. Kocher,
“and we're going to keep them
both. We're delighted with Lassie.”

slots are of brass trim construc-

Polacky has emphasized that if pa-

erly it will greatly facilitate the
dispatch of mail.

Schedule Of Mails
In this connection he said, many
patrons are not acquainted with
the schedule of mails. On weekdays,
the first mail arrives from Wilkes-
Barre at 7:30 AM. The first mail
dispatched goes out to WilkesBarre
at 11 AM. The next arriving mail
is from Wilkes-Barre at 3:30 [P.M.,
and 'the final mail dispatched to
Wilkes-Barre leaves the office at
5 P.M. All outgoing mail should be
in the office a half hour before
it is dispatched in order to give
employees sufficient time to pre-
pare it. The truck which brings
the mail from Wilkes-Barre pro-
ceeds from Dallas to Noxen which
is the end of the route, and all
mail for that area should be in the
office a half hour before the times
listed ‘above for the arrival of mail
from Wilkes-Barre. No mail is re-
ceived zt the Dallas office on Sun-
days, but mail is dispatched for
‘Wilkes-Barre at 4 P.M.
Other Equipment
Mr. Polacky said rural carriers
will be delighted with the three
new carrier cases containing 208
separations each, in comparison
with the old cases which contained
100 separations each. Each separa-
tion takes care of the mail of two
families. Heretofore carriers have
had to use pasteboard boxes and
makeshift material available to
help them sort the mail. The old
carrier cases will now be shipped to
some smaller postoffice,
Mr. Polacky said that mail de-
livery on rural routes could still
be greatly facilitated, especially at
‘Christmas, and during periods when
substitute carriers and green help
are being employed, if rural box
holders would see ho it that their
names are painted on their boxes.
“Often”, he said, “unfamiliar car-
riers are unable to leave mail in
unmarked boxes or are delayed
with the distribution of their other
mail by trying to find the proper
boxes.
Probably of most interest to pa-
trons who will benefit by street
delivery of mail are two big city
carrier cases containing 260 sepa-
rations each. Mr, Polacky stated
that he has notified ‘the Assistant
Postmaster General in charge of
Postoffice Quarters of the arrival
of this equipment. He expects to
receive shortly from the Civil Ser-
vice Department the list of men
eligible for the two carrier jobs.
Appointments will then be made
and carrier service, he believes,

After their appointment, there
will be only a limited number of
patrons served at ‘the general de-
livery window at the Postoffice. Mr.
Polacky urged all street delivery
patrons to notify their correspond-
ents of their correct street and
house number as these will have
to appear on all mail addressed
to them. At the same time he
urged all former patrons on Raral
Route 4 which was discontinued
months ago, to advise their cor-
respondents of their proper Rural
Route number. “All of these may
appear to be small matters”, he
said, “but their total makes con-
siderable difference in the quick
dispatch of the mails.”
To top off the list of new equip-
ment that will promote greater
efficiency and create a more mod-
ern appearance at the office are
a new dumping and stamping table

“It looks at last”, said a patron

sweat as they unloaded the big

partment has recognized ‘that this

ficient dispatch of the mails.”
