New Rural Route for Reagan.

 

    The examination was held Saturday by Postmaster Emerson for applicants for appointment as carrier on the new rural free delivery route out of Reagan.  There were seven applicants for appointment, all of whom took a rigid examination.  Their papers will be sent to Washington where they will be graded and the name of the successful applicant given out.

    The new route will extend westward from Reagan, crossing the Brazos river at the lower new bridge going out and at the upper new bridge coming in.  The route will serve a considerable number of patrons on the west side of the river as well as on the east.
