I ' u,-- . i I I rl1 a : Lambert & Co., dealers in automotive parts and supplies, 1201 East 21st South, bought what is reported to be the first Post Office in Sugar House for extension of their business. Mr. Dan A. Wade, one of the owners of Lambert & Co. which has been in business in the area for approximately 17 years, stated that they will have 150 front feet with the addition. The old white adobe house Just east of the Lambert Company, may have served Sugar House as its first Post Office, Mr. Wade be-lieves. The Independent Photo-graphy crew were amazed at the old landmark, its primitive out-lines intact, but not in condition to be moved to a museum spot. For the past 50 years, a couple has lived there in rather an economical fashion. They had ho electricity, used cardboard for rugs, made their own soap, and generally the evidence of their lives made one nostalgic for a perhaps harder-worki- ng but sim-pler past. The couple was re-puted to be worth $200,000. The Independent would like to hear from anyone who ever mailed a letter from this historic spot.
