Patrons living in houses at the rear of another house on the same lot can have mail delivered to them by placing their own letter box close to the door af the front house where the box may be readily served by the letter carrier when he delivers malil to the front house. Mail for apartment houses (three or more apartments in one building) may be delivered to a group mail box system inside the main entrance of the apartâ€" ment house, or to the central office of the apartment house, on the ground floor. where the mail is looked after by the owner or manager of the apartment house. (As the delivery of mail to apartâ€" ment nouses is slightly complicated, it is hoped that owners of such buildings who have not already installed group mail box systems, will come to the Post Office to discuss their individual cases. I have discussed the matter of instalâ€" ling letterâ€"slots with many owners of houses rented to other people, and all these owners have assured me that they have already installed such slots or will have them installed shortly. so that people living in rented houses, apartâ€" ments and business blocks are requestâ€" ed to take this matter up with their own landlord at once. where such equipment has not already been installed. To all psople who now have P. O. boxes I would ask that they also install at once letter slots or mail receptacles so that if mail comes addressed to them at their house address it can be promptâ€" ly. Gelivered to that address, and if it comes addressed to the P.O. Box it can be sorted into the box. In this way they will enable the Department to get the street delivery started, help the other people who can not get boxes and need the street delivery, and help the Post Office at Timmins to supply a better service, is now held up by the people of the town of Timmins overlooking the fact that preparatians must ibe made to have the houses ready to receive mail before the detter carrier delivemy starts, I hope that maill facilities will be installed at once.
