EDITORIALS This I Believe I believe that every man should have a right to be heard so long as he does not abuse that right. I believe that every organization, group or each individual has a right to expect a newspaper publisher to offer the use of his newspaper columns for newsworthy articles about the organization or group or individual, within the limits of the newspaper. I believe that "letters to the editor" should be published in the columns of the newspaper to which they are submitted, as long as they are factual and not libelous. I believe that every business and professional man in any city should belong to the Chamber of Commerce in the city, in which it or he is engaged in business. I believe that candidates for city council in any city should be examined for any ulterior motives they might have or for any advantages which might accure to them if they are elected to this position of trust. I believe that P-TA's should re-evaluate the purpose for which they were originally organized and contain their efforts to this purpose (a better understanding between the parents and the teachers) and this I do believe, that attendance at P-TA meetings should NOT be compulsory on the part of any teacher or school official. I believe that every man has a right to worship God according to the dictates of his own conscience But that he should not impose his beliefs on others when to do so would only create confusion rather than understanding. I believe in a two-party political system and I believe that no party is beyond reproach but that leaders in each party should strive constantly to weed out the bad and maintain the good. I believe that the customer is not always right but a good merchant will not lose his temper but will try to work out a satisfactory agreement so that the customer will continue to do business with the merchant. I believe in the ancient Chinese proverb: "Man without a smile should not open shop." I believe that those who criticize preachers, teachers, Chamber of Commerce secretaries, Boy Scout or YMCA secretaries, or public officials, should have first-hand information, beyond question of a doubt, before they attempt to gain followers for their beliefs. Your Postal Service By Postmaster Marshall N. McFlo Nine postal carriers of the Anaheim post office wear a maroon star on their uniforms, eight wear two stars, three wear three stars, and two are proudly wearing four stars. Carriers get one maroon star for five years service, two for ten years, three for 15 years, and four maroon stars for 20 years. For the first year, stripes were worn, but they wore out too quickly and were replaced by today's stars. Incidentally, the present form of free city delivery service went into operation on July 1, 1863. Joseph William Briggs, a window delivery clerk at the Cleveland, Ohio post office, is credited with this concept of free mail delivery. Briggs was also the designer of the first carrier uniform. Winter - Summer Uniforms Today's new winter and summer uniforms are only a few years old and were designed to be better looking than the old, lighter-weight material, and to give better all-around weather protection while providing longer wear. Letter carriers are not required to carry more than 35 pounds of mail at one time, nor do they have to make deliveries above the second floor in buildings without elevator service. 7-Mile Round Trip The average letter carrier in Anaheim delivering mail in our business district walks about seven miles—horizontally, not counting climbing, and covers his route twice a day. His fellow-carrier on our residential routes will also walk about seven miles a day, though these figures vary considerably. Chinese proverb: "Man without a smile should not open shop." I believe that those who criticize preachers, teachers, Chamber of Commerce secretaries. Boy Scout or YMCA secretaries, or public officials, should have first-hand information, beyond question of a doubt, before they attempt to gain followers for their beliefs. These things I do believe and if more of us believed and followed these beliefs we would not be so quick to criticize others. WHAT'S DOING H. I. Perry, your Telephone Manager in Anaheim Care for a look at some unusual phones? Here are a couple of experimental types. You'll agree they're quite a change from the phones you use every day. So we've asked a number of people to try them out at home for a month. In the foreground is a new-style bedroom phone. The phone at left is even more unusual. The dial's built right into the handset. Naturally, it's too early to tell if either of these phones will ever go into regular service. But our aim is to find out what telephone users think of them. For what we learn from tests like this will help out T-Mile Round Trip The average letter carrier in Anaheim delivering mail in our business district walks about seven miles—horizontally, not counting climbing, and covers his route twice a day. His fellow-carrier on our residential routes will also walk about seven miles a day, though these figures vary considerably, but covers his route only once a day. Hard on Soles Carriers, on the average, have to have their uniform shoes resoled every three months. To help speed the delivery of your mail is one of the most important functions of the Anaheim post office. Because of this, we are continually seeking ways by which our carriers can literally get off their feet and, wherever feasible, use a conveyance in their deliveries. Transportation Such conveyances as bicycles, which have been used for many years in Anaheim and the new Mailsters—three-wheeled motor-driven vehicles which can be curtained off for weather protection—provide some answers to this problem. Incidentally, Anaheim is the only office in Orange County to receive Mailsters. And, when it is impossible for the carrier to ride, we provide hand carts on which carriers can put their bags of mail for delivery. Until after the Civil War, nearly all clock-making in America was centered in Connecticut. Care for a look at some unusual phones? Here are a couple of experimental types.

California Conservation Week will be observed throughout the State from March 7 to 14. And this is a good time for all of us to take steps to preserve California's natural resources. Our conservation authorities point out that Californians all have a big stake in this, and there are many things we as individuals can do. We can support tree-planting programs that beautify cities and rural areas. We can conserve water at both ends of the pipe line. That means protecting water sources — and not wasting water. We can practice "Outdoor Good Manners" and prevent the littering up of cities, roads, camp grounds and countrysides. And we can all give our support to the conservation clubs that are working to safeguard our soil, minerals, forests; water and wildlife. PACIFIC TELEPHONE. These days, lots of people enjoy regular telephone visits with folks out of town. It's fun to phone someone at a certain time each week, for instance. When you plan a phone visit this way, you know the person you call will be at home. You benefit from low Station-to-Station rates, too. And when you look over the rates listed in your phone book, you'll be surprised how far you can call for $1 or less. Pacific Telephone CAMP PENDLETON Marine Pat. Thomas S.
