Mr. and Mrs. J. Avery Bishop, who taught the first school in Delta, visited Mrs. Hansen's room and told us how Delta's first school was conducted. Compared to our school today we can see we have many advantages. These classes are now searching family histories for interesting stories of their own pioneer ancestors, ances-tors, hese stories will be filed in our Junior High library for everyone to read There has also teen some fine work In drawing maps and pictures and clay modeling to Illustrate Utah History and pioneer life. A general Delta Jr. High School election was held today and when the votes were counted, It seemed to show a very definite trend for the ReDublicans. We are sure that the students received a definite educational value in how to vote and to become interested in our two-party system of choosing peo-nif peo-nif to run our government. More details will be forthcoming next week. In Mrs. Turner's Social Studies classes, voting has been the topic of the day. In order that we might be better informed on our two political parties, par-ties, we invited Mr. Homer Petersen Peter-sen to come to our classes and speak to us about the Democratic Party and Mr. Carl Ashby provided us with information about the Republican Re-publican Party. Both men told of the background and history of their respective parties and of the basic ideas each stands for. Then each discussed the issues of the present campaign and i how. their party stands on each of : them. Much interest was aroused among the members of the class and a good discussion followed each talk. We wish to thank Mr. Petersen and Mr. Ashby for taking time from their busy schedule to talk to us, we feel that we learned a great deal and we appreciate their efforts very much.

WEDDING ANNOUNCEMENTS nwo1 mm ijpwjMiim up.i .i M ..in i .iiu. iihhi n ii t , n , mmn. '3 ? LXL4 We often hear inquiries here at the Delta Post Office about how many women are employed in the post offices of the United States and what kind of work they are permitted to do, and thereby hangs a tale. I-pirpnrl has it that Calamity I Jane, Wild Bill Hickok's girl friend ; once was a rural mail carrier in I the black hills or South Dakota, n I is not known whether there is any truth to this, 'but even so, the Post fOffice Department can boast ot any number of interesting and well I known women on its rosters. For example, deep in the heart of Texas. Texas County, Missouri, that is, during one recent winter there was a blizzard that still has the Hill-folk talking. For ten days, no car or truck was able to travel over the snow locked roads. Finally, a farmer hitched a tractor to a sled and managed to get in to town for groceries for some of the Hill families. But during each of those blizzard-bound ten days, the U. S. Mail went through on schedule, and who was the mail- ttian? You guessed it a woman, Mrs. Eva Crank, contractor on ; Route 453558 that crossed Still- I house Creek four times in Texas County, Missouri. I "We made our route every day," Mrs. Crank observed briefly, "Part time had to walk and lead the horse, but the mail went through. This Is but one example of the many real life stories being enacted daily by hundreds of women who carry the U. S. Mail. The thousands of women in super visory and postmaster positions are similar in the Postal Service to the branch managers upon whom the nation's private business rely so heavily in the conducting of their operations. Is there such a thing as a lady letter carrier? Yes, there are 95 of them throughout the country, 332 lady rural carriers, and hundreds more who -work in various other capacities in the Postal Service. Among these are our own josie Moody and Pearl Snow. Mrs. Moody is the star route contractor and carries the mail from Delta to Oasis, Deseret, Hinckley and Abraham, Abra-ham, and has a very good record of never having failed on her part. Mrs. Snow has helped us during the Christmas rush for the past five years and is presently serving as substitute clerk, taking Jesse cecK-stead's cecK-stead's Dlace. Pearl is well known at the stamp and money order win dow for her ready smile and cheerful cheer-ful greetings. We feel she is a real asset to our office and appreciate working with her. Postmark This Yesterday Everv once in awhile a patron asks us if we will be so kind as to post-mark this letter with yesterday's yes-terday's postmark because he is 'ate with an insurance payment, or he desires to have an early postmark post-mark advantage in some contest he s entering. However valid and worthy the reason given. Postal Regulations strickly forbid using any but the current postmark on all mail. We hope our friends, tne patrons of the Delta Post Office, will understand why we must refuse re-fuse all such requests. "Aneer Is The Wind That Blows Out Your Light Of Reason." We are making a special offer on wedding announcements. W i t h each order, we will give the newly weds, a year's subscription to the Chronicle, and alsc will run the bride's picture in tbo paper.
