Postmaster C. Henry Nielsen said the new office hours Monday through Friday will be from 8:45 a.nv to 5:15 p.m. This is one-hahour less than the present schedule provides and was ordered by the regional office at Denver. Saturday hours will be the same, opening at 8:30 a.m. and closing at 12:30 p.m. However, the box lobby at the new post office will remain open 24 hours a day unless conditions force a night-tim- e closing. The post master said the shorter service lobby hours were made necessary by different arrangements at the new post office where all money orders, stamp sales and parcel business will be handled over a common counter. Thuse services could be extended longer at the old post office simply by keeping one window open. lf V - 1 i i Iv '4S ''... . - , $ j i .'' f f- iHiWW r. - ' N JSfc.
