At the east end of this corridor are situated the money order wickets, while the general delivery wickets are on the tion now extending east and west across the building. Postmaster Mathison's office which formerly was situated in the main body om the office has been moved to the northwest corner of the building with a door opening out into the main lobby and one into the office proper, Out going mail is now despatch- ed at the rear of the office instead of the front as previously.

Gibbon Street District Residents Fail to Meet Post Office Requirements Delay i in Installatio.¢ Mail Boxes and House N.m- bers Only Reason for Non- Commencement of Mail- Carrier Service in District, Postmaster F. T. Matheson Says Residents of Gibbon street district will not benefit by letter mail service by carrier until they have compiled with regulations relative to the in- stallation of mail boxes and street numbers on their homes. Such was the statement made by F. TT, Mathi- son, local postmaster to The Times this morning. Mr. Mathison informed The Times that the numbers for the homes had been given to the residents of the districts about two weeks ago, and that they have apparently neglected to place the numbers where mail-car- riers may see them. Until this is done he stated, the mail-service will not be begun. Some time ago surveyors were in the city and spent some time in lay- ing out plans for the inauguration of the service with the Oshawa post of- fice as the distributing point. A re- port on their doings was published recently and in the report was in- corporated the stipulation that ser- vice would not commence until ail resident owners in the district com- plied with the regulations respecting house numbers and mail boxes. Some residents on the south' side of King street west are not benefit- ing at present from the mail-service in that district owing to the absence of a sidewalk on that side of the street. The sidewalk will be put in shortly, Mr, Mathison said, and as soon as this work is done, the ser- vice will be commenced.
