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.”

nursery school
opens Sept. 15
A new non-denominational
nursery school will open Sept. 15
at the Trinity United Presby-
terian Church, Church St.,
Dallas, it was announced re-
cently by Mrs. Joseph A.
Conaway, a member of the
school’s steering committee.
Enrollment is open to pre-
school youngsters who cele-
brated their third birthday on or
before Feb. 1, 1970.
Classes will be held from 9:30
am. to 12 p.m. four days a
week, and while the school does
not provide transportation to
and from the church, Mrs.
Conaway notes that parents
may wish to work out car pool
arrangements among them-
selves.
The school will be staffed by
Mrs. Thomas J. Stets, an ex-
perienced nursery school
teacher who has taught most re-
cently at the Temple B‘nai
B'rith Nursery School, King-
ston. Mrs. Stets suggests that
the school’s program will strive
to develop each child’s interests
through individual instruction
and will also emphasize group
interaction.
Trinity Presbyterian’s at-
tractive lawns and extensive
macadam surfaces will be used
for out-of-doors play activities,
where facilities will include
swing sets, sliding boards, and
tricycles. Refreshments will be
served each day.
Tuition at the school is $30 per
month, and arrangements for
payment of the tuition on an in-
stallment basis may be made.
Persons who would like to
enroll their children in the class
or who would like more in-
formation about the school may
