Tuesday, February 26, 1924 ANOTHER CARRIER AT POSTOFFICE Another letter carrier, to look after parcels post packages exclusively, has been allowed by the postoffice department, and will be put to work tomorrow. Postmaster J. H. Whitaker said today, Crawford W. Brown is the man. In addition, the department has granted four more large collection boxes, $60 per year to each of three carriers using bicycles for upkeep, and other incidentals. A first-aid kit for the use of the force also has arrived. The boxes will be placed at Five Points, the city hall block and at two other places, probably the Santa Fe station and the Elks' clubhouse. There will be 26 employees, a considerable payroll for the city—including Whitaker, eight city carriers, five rural carriers, nine clerks, a messenger and two substitutes. The extra carrier will enable the other carriers to cover their addresses more speedily and result in better service all round. During the Christmas and New Year holiday period extra help will assist Brown. The service recently has been crippled by the fact that two men were ill and two off on leave.

Our fire company responded to the alarm. The large hay and cow barn was destroyed, also a bunkhouse and other small buildings. The fire company concentrated their efforts in trying to save the bunkhouse, which badly threatened the dwelling house. It was impossible to save the small building, but the dwelling house was saved. The fire is thought to have originated in the roof of the barn by the electric wire. About 40 tons of hay was burned. The loss will amount to several thousand dollars. One of the workmen on the ranch had left a roll of bills under his pillow in the bunkhouse. After the fire he hunted around and found the charred remains of a water-soaked mattress with part of a burned pillow upon it. He lifted the pillow and there was his money, not harmed in the least.
