Monroe
County Rural Route Directory
Rural Routes No. 1
and 2 started Monday, September 1. W. b. Goodnight carries on route
No. 1 and Clarence Curtright on Route No. 2. Crawford Bros. ordered
the boxes for the patrons but for some cause the boxes did not
arrive in time to be put up before the route started, so the
carriers will have to deliver the mail the best they can until the
boxes arrive. The carriers carry stamps, postals, envelopes, etc.,
registered letters given, receipts for money orders—in fact are a
small post office on wheels. Patrons will bear in mind that all
letters posted on rural routes require a two cent stamp if addressed
to another patron or elsewhere. The following is a list of boxes
ordered so far on No. 1. More will be added from time to time.

All boxes have the
names of patrons painted on them, making a veritable rural
directory, so that candidate will not have to ask Mr. Jones how he
spells his name before he leaves to know whom he has been talking
to.
