A good dog is pohupi tho
most intelligent and faithful of
all dumb creatures. Few men
'are as loyal to their friends as an
intelligent dog to his' master.

Postal Reflations as to How Free
Delivery May Be Obtained.
fl GOOD THING FOR SflN ANGELO
to Obtain it.
Let it lie known far and wide
that the l'retis is an advocate ot
free delivery mail ervioe for dan
Angolo. The uity is oT sullioiont
importance that if all require-
ments weie complied with we
could easily obtain the much
to all
to the
tho mail. They must lead
the outskirts of the city;
portion of San Angolo nortn of
tho railroad to the Post to
Angolo heights to the Spencer
addition and beyond Now that
vn have a sidewalk ordinance the
coveted free delivery of mail i city
matter. And it can he done.
Lot's look into the matter and
get things down to facts and fig-
ures. The postal laws and regula-
tions provide:
(1) Loiter carriers shall be
employed for the free delivery of
mail matter as frequently as tho
public business may require at
every incoiipohatK!) citv village
or borough containing a popula-
tion of llftv thousand within its
can provide the necessarv
walks to coninly with this pro-
vision. And as the people who
live in the portions of the city
mentioned will get and deserve
the benefits of a free delivery of
mails this is important
(2) The houses must be num-
bered the street names posted on
each of i ho four corners and the
city must be properly lighted.
The numbering of tho houses will
jcost tho city nothing the posting
of the name- of the streets but
certiorate limits and niav bo so little and should be done whether
emtiloved afc everv nhi'io contain-' we are to have free doliery or

(2) Application? for tho es-
tablishment of the free-delivery
service at any postoflico ontitled
thoreto under section 709 (pre-
ceding) may bo made by the
postmaster by citizens joining
in a petition or by tho municipal
authorities.
(Si) Applications eliould give;
the population ot tne city ac-
cording to the lust general cen-
cus and the gross rovonuo of the
postoilico for the preceding fis-
cal year. They should also state

Tlio requirements to bo com-
plied with prior to applying for
tho establishment of tho service
are these :
(1) Tho sidowalks must bo in
good condition.
There is no need to try to ob-
tain free delivery if all sidowalks
in tho citv are not in good con-
dition. They must bo so that a
carrier would not have to wade
h in up rather thai '
pny the dollar -necessary to save
him A great many dogs are re-
garded as worthless yet if you
were to test their loyalty ana up- Rn
preciatiou of kindnesses yuM
would find that you would regard Sftsl
nine in ten of them as worth the yfy)
tax
Some very pretty tributes have
been paid the dog in overy
language and in every land. Of
course many regard these things
as nure'v sentimental vet there
is a soundness of sense hack ot
overy one of them. Hooks have
been written with dogs as heroes
magazine articles have lauded
the dog Byron and other poets
havo contributed product of
their brains to faithful dogs but
no one has ever written anthing
prettier nor moie appreciative
of canine intelligence and loyalty
than the author of the lines that
follow :
The Men Who
Wear Good Clothes
Know the Shoe record of the Big Store. ...We have
always carried the lines that lead. Fine footwear is here
in all its newness. Medium priced shoes are plentiful too;
and the man who wears the lower priced grades can get
better suited in our large stocks than anywhere else in
West Texs. We sell shoes that wear as well as shoes
that represent the very heights of style :-: :-: :-:

would show the proper spirit and
as but few mail boxes would bo
necessary at first the department
would "doubtless take these
things into consideration.
The sidewalk matter is tho
most important of any. The
city can require sidewalks con-
structed by property owners and
as the property owners are tho
ones to profit by tree delivery
they would doubtless with but
fow oxcoptions comply with the
requests of tho qounoil in this re-
quest. Let's have free delivery
