PAGE TWELVE nationwide postal ‘clean-up week Postmaster Edward Buckley has announced “CLEAN-UP WEEK” for the Dallas Post Office Aug. 16 to 22 as part of a nation-wide postal activity announced in Washington by Postmaster General ‘Winton M. Blount. The Postmaster General announced the program “to establish post offices as a symbol of good housekeeping and as a credit to every community in the nation.” Locally, Postmaster Buckley said ‘‘CLEAN- UP WEEK” will focus on such matters as interior cleaning and painting, clean up files and the like. “Our Post Office is one of the busiest and most visible activities in Dallas and whatever we can do to improve it is of special value to our community.” The Postmaster pointed out that, in addition to improved appearance for postal facilities, the national ‘CLEAN-UP WEEK” is designed to pro- vide practical values, removel of safety and health hazards designed to reduce accident and illness, and repairs wherever feasible. Mr. Buckley noted that more than 40,000 post offices, stations and branches over the nation are joining in the “CLEAN-UP WEEK” proclaimed by the Postmaster General. This included the Post Office Department Headquarters in Washington, as well as the 15 regional offices across the country. The Postmaster General said that while the most intensive effort will occur during the de- signated week, he expects post offices to maintain improvement programs as a permanent activity “that will give a new look to the postal service for customers and employees alike.” FALL FAIR {continue from PAGE -ONE) the theme, ‘‘As you like it.”’ (Niches will be 24 high by 16 wide by 18 deep) Home and dairy products in the following classes—breads, rolls, butter cakes, egg cakes, pies, candy, cookies, canned fruits, canned vegetables, pickles, relishes, butters, honey spreads, jams, jellies, marmalades and preserves.
