Tke Postmaster General has proposed to Congress to increas2 the rate of -n- --tererest on postal savings deposits to 3% which should place this branch of the serviez more sally at the disposal of those wishing to open savings accounts. The law prohibits Aisclosure of deposits to any person other than the devositor, a very desirable feature for depositors. The mail-early campaign in the States is meeting with success in many quarters with consequent benefits to patrons and the service. If the people of this com- munity give proper consideration to the matter of mailing early, and practice it for a littla while, it is certain phat the sdvantagze would soon beccme obvious to them.. Instead of doing all mailing of letters ind packages on Monday and Saturday which are the heaviest d=vs at the post office here, son» spare tim: on other days should be devoted to this pur- pose, and mail put in the post office on Friday and Suanday, latest, whenever it is convenient to do so Another thing that wyould help the post office and pa- trons themselves is to buy som: stamps and .eep them on hand. When dozens of patrons fill the lobby asking for mail, wanting to buy stamps, register letters, insure parcels, ete., not to men- tion money orders of which 80% are pur- chased on the busiest days entailing needless congestion and much loss of time to those who are obliged to await their turn at the window, even a much bigger cstaff could not re- lieve the situation to any exteunt. When mailing is done eariyv and often, more personal attention and material aid of postal employecs in the preparation of mail, so often needed. might be detailed to mutual advantage. The public wants the best service and the post office wants to give the best, the very best service it possibly can. This is easily atiained by cooperation. Won’t ali the patrons of the Christiansted post office cooperate? Many are doing it, - why not all? The postmaster is very much encour- aged by the expectation of an improved mail connection between the Virgin Is- lands and Porto Rice, which also means better mail-service with the States. It is hoped to publish definite information on this subject in the very near future. Mr. B. R. Larsen was re-appointed Postmaster at Christiansted on the 21st. ultimo, EDITORIAL. It is with much pleasure that we learn of the re-appointment of Mr. B. R. Lar- sen to the postmastersnip of this town, the duties of which position he has dis- charged during the past four and a half years to*®the satisfaction of the whole public. All wto have had business with the post office, or pay any attention to what’s going on arvound them, will testi- fy to the energy, activity, and cfliciency of Mr. Larsen as a postmaster, and we are sure will join with us in extending o him hearty congratulations on this ocea- sion, and wishing him many years of useiulness in the postal service., It is coimmmo- knowledge that the post office here is a well conducted institution, the doors o: which are open all day, and frequently until late at night, Sundays and holidays included, in order that the public convenience may be met in the most complete way, but it is not so well known thut much of the postmaster’s private time and means 18 cheerfuiiy applied toward maincaining that standard of effi- ciency and service which have come to be the trade-mark or the C wristiansted Post Office. When men do th:ir work poerly, they are criticized; when they do it well, little comime.:. is heard for the simple reason that -verybody thinks they have done no more than is expecied of them. We take this opporiunity of giv ing Postmasier Larsen credit for ful- fillinghis duties to the pubiic, and giv- ing us the most sartisfaciory service he can. . c L e r OAl We have been asked to mention that the Industrial Brass Band will give a conczrt on the whart Sunday night wea- ther permiiiing. ® The Native Brass Banl delivered a popular concert last night afterward tramping up town followel by a large crowd. 3 The Creole from St, Thomas arrived here early th s a. m. : Remember tonight the Moonriders wil} be continued at the theatre,
