The Rural Carrier.
'Pin. are heroes ill plenty in tho
postal service, and tho greatest of
them is tho rural carrier.
Tho railway mail clerk risks his life
every day In tho discharge of his duty,
and too much cannot bo said in honor
of his dovotion.
Dut for every day, week in and week
out, homely and unromautio work for
the beuellt of tho public, the man who
carries tho mall over tho rural route
comes first.
For tho meager allowance of K500 a
year tho country mail man gives his
own services, provides a horse, or
horses, and a mail cart, and then, for
good measure, gives to tho public and
to tho servico his comfort, often tits
onlth and-somotlmos his life.
Every day, In good weather or lu
bod, over smooth roads or over rough
roads, braving now boat and now cold,
through rain and through blizzard, tho
messenger of civilization makes his
rounds.
Ho puts tho rural dwellers upon an
ton
equality with tho city resident.
Today the farmer is In touch with
his markets and with the news of the
greater outside world. Dally his paper
comes to Ills door. Ills comiort as a
man and his usefulness as a citizen
are broadened.
And it is tho rural carrier who has
done it.
More than ouco this agent of ad
vance, with unconipluining, prosaic
round of duty, has united the man of
man of tho farm with the mun of the
shop or desk.
Ho not only brings the daily letters
and papers to tho farmer's door, but
he is the general carrier for the farm
er's wife. Ho does not havo to do this,
but ho doos it out of the goodness of
his heart.
Ho is a solf-coustitutod shopper and
tho most obliging man in his particu
lar territory. The women along his
route look to him for the littlo odds
and ends of housekeeping supplies
which they aro out of no day and
iieed tho next.
Ho will cony verbal messages from
one woman who wants another to
spend tho day with her, and ho has
been known to take a little tot from
Its homo ami convey it safely to a rela
tive's and bring it home tho next day,
All in all ho is a good fellow and
earns a good deal more of Uncle Sam's
money than he gets.
Ho has become anabsoluto necessity
to the rural homes that are visited by
him, and people wonder how they over
got along without him.
Tho rural carrier has como to stay.
Tho people want him nnd they must
havo him, and it rests with the govern
ment to make his path an easier one.
Such a laborer Is surely worthy of his
hire.
Money alono cannot buy tho energy
and tho faithfulness which aro the
everyday attributes of tho rural car
rier, but money can more nearly repay
mm tor worn iiouesiiy uone man doos
tho beggnrly sum ho now receives.
While congrosti is votlug millions for
departments nnd projects for political
reasons, it would do no harm to glvo a
moment of tho time and a fraction of
that money to men who aro worthy of
attention and recognition.
Comfort and progress even over a
small area would be cheap at much
morb than KXK) a year.
Glvo tho rural carrier nuro money.
Ho earus it.
