A RECORD SEASON.
Jos. W. Daniels, Supt. of Station A,
together with his assistant, P. O. Daste, d
and our letter carriers, are to be con- T
gratulated upon the admirable manner lE
in which they handled the great
amount of Christmas business which
was a record week for Station A dur
ing the holidays. Never before were
there so many registered packages a
sent from this Station, or were there
a greater number received for distri
bution by the carriers. The Algiers'
force was not given any assistmnce
from the main ofmce to handle this in
Screased business, but notwithstanding
Sthis, they were able to get out the
mail with as much despatch and a
promptness as they were at the city
office, where they had ample assist
ance. The force of the Alglers post
office desires to thank all our people
here for their cooperation in facilitat
ing the office's business during the
rush.
e MOUNT OLIVET NOTES. E
The attendance upon the services on
New Year's day wa in excess of any r
Spreoious year, and it is hoped that it
is a harbinger of the future. The mid

Splicity and the feeling it evoked.

branch of the Woman's Auxiliary to

ed from the first Tuesday to the first

will be held at 7:30 p. m.
St. John's night will long be remem
bered by all who were fortunate enough
to have been present at the service.
The sermon of Rev. Byron Holley, rec
tor of St. George's Church, will long
be remembered. The attendance of
men-particularly of the Masonic body
before whom the sermon was delivered,
was noticeably large. After the ser
vice was concluded Rev. Mr. Holley
and the rector were the guests of 8ts.

While the mortgage has been cancelled
there is still a small indebtedness upon
the rectory, but it is as nothing in
comparison with what has been carried
in the past. The "Gloria in Excelsis"
in Christmas morn rang out clear and
fresh in place of the hymn which dur
ing the Advent season had been said
r sung in its stead, and at this ser
vice partook of the nature of a "Te

largely attended. Interment was in

The Christmas tree celebration was
