He mailman has a long day he gets to the post office before 7 00. First, he picks up the mail that is ready for him. He brings it to his own worktable. Above the table, he has a case for sorting the mail. Our mailman is mr. Dolan. Other mailman are sorting the mail they will deliver. Soters are most important, mr. Dolan sorts them first. He puts the letters for each family in their own place. Now, mr. Dolan sorts the magazines and newspapers and packages. It takes about an hour to sort the morning mail. It must be done before 8 00. Mr. Dolan is on time. A strapping his mail into bundles. He makes each bundle a size that is easy to handle. He takes the letters out of the case in the same order as the houses on his route. Letters up in bundles so they wont get out of order. Now they are ready for him to hand out. The mail is too heavy for him to carry all at once, so he puts part of it into a really bad. Bad. Bag. He locks the back for safety. The relay bag is going to a truck. The truck will carry it partly for the mailman. Now, mr. Dolan goes to the mail clerk. From the mail clerk, he gets a very important letter. It is a registered letter, so mr. Dolan signs for it. Everyone handles a registered letter must sign for it. He gets his key here too. Care ofn takes special this registered letter. He puts it in a separate pocket of his pouch. Mail,he packs the regular the bundles of letters and magazines. And he is ready to start around his route. He must leave the post office before 8 00. Our mailman is on time. Mr. Dolan is carrying many kinds of messages. He carries friendly letters and business letters. He carries magazines with stories and magazines with news. He links the mail for some people before the stores or offices are open in the morning. Sometimes, he hands the mail to people already at work. The filling station men gets the registered letter. He must sign for it to show he has received it. Signed slip the back to the mailman and the mailman must take it back to the post office. The post office must keep the signed slip to show the registered letter was delivered. Mr. Dolan is always careful when he crosses streets. At this corner, he watches the traffic light. He crosses with it. Mr. Dolan comes to each house on his route at almost the same time every morning. At this house, the mailbox is right beside the door. Its handy to reach an easy to open. The lady in this house must have been waiting for her mail. This slot is really the best kind of mailbox. Now, mr. Dolan has emptied his pouch, so he comes to this storage box for his relay bag. The mail truck has already been here. The truck driver lists the relay bag locked in the storage box. Mr. Dolan takes to mail out and puts the bag back into the box. The truck driver will get the empty back the next time he comes with a full bag. Now mr. Dolan has another pouch full of letters and papers to deliver. The mailman knows everybody in the neighborhood and Everybody Knows the mailman. The end of his route, he stops at the mailboxes he passes to pickup outgoing mail. This big mailbox, the large envelopes have fallen to the bottom. The small envelopes are altogether. Mr. Dolan puts them into his empty pouch. He will carry them back to the post office to be sent out. The letters will go to many different places. They may go all over the world. Now, we are outside a Village Post Office and here comes mr. Hahn. He general mailman. He takes the mail to people who live on farms out in the country. Letters and newspapers and magazines, many boxes and packages too. Some of them come from stores. Many country people buy from stores far away. The stores mail their packages to them. The country mailman starts on his way by 9 00. Country delivery is called rural delivery, so the rural mailmans route, thelled an rd first letters of rural delivery. Part of this route is on paved highway. He turns out here to make his first delivery. The mailbox on a poll is easy to reach. Now, the car turns off the paved road. From here on, it follows a narrower road. This mailbox has its flag up. That means the mailman must stop to pick up something. The farmers wife has a package to mail. Hom wayeighs it. The farmers wife buys stamps for it. She nails her package at the rural mailmans car so some people call it a post office on wheels. Country children often watch for the mailman. Hears becky. Almost every day, she waits by the mailbox.

This farmer wants to order seeds by mail. Hes buying them from a store far away, so he needs a money order to pave them. He knows a money order is a safe way to send his money. The rural mailman will send the money order from the village. Post office.
