Facilitate Rural Free Delivery.
The schools and churches of a community are its greatest moral
and educational forces. Next to them, perhaps, stands Rural Mail
Delivery, which brings the people of the rural districts in daily
touch with the cities and business world. It places in their hands
the daily papers, magazines, and all of the current literature of the
country, so that they may be as well informed as to what is transpiring
in the political, literary, and commercial world as their brothers
of the cities. The beneficial effects of this service upon the
happiness and home comforts of our rural population is immeasurable,
and nothing contributes to its efficiency and regularity more than
improved roads.
