DOORSTEP DELIVERy
FOR FFfOnTIERsmon
! now
• \l-:\ r
Saturday '• 'marked the switchover in Front
iersman delivery from mail to carrier ser
vice. It is a move which has been under
consideration for some little time, but
which has 'been delayed .because the right
carrier was not available. * ..
Last week Thor Jensen offered to pinch
hit in an emergency, and then agreed to con
tinue as regular carrier. The paper will be
delivered to your door in the future, if you
live within the Seldovia city limits. To
those who live farther away, the paper must
continue to come by mail.
Your cooperation is requested in getting
this delivery service started. There will
be some confusion and possibly some missed
deliveries until Thor is able to work out a
systematic route. If you miss your paper
this week, wonft you please tell us about it
at once, so that we can correct our mistake
immediately? Just drop in at The Frontiers*
man office, or put a note in postoffice box
83.
Your cooperation is further reauested in
notifying Thor where the paper should be put
in the event of rain or wind. For houses
without sheltered porches or doorways, a
small box of some sort would make his work
much easier.
Ye hope the new service will meet with
your approval. We expect it . to save our
readers many unnecessary trips to the post
office on Wednesday and Saturday evenings,
when a delay in printing the Frontiersman
often makes it impossible to get it to the
postoffice during business hours. With
wrappering and stamping no longer necessary
on local'papers, we expect it to speed up
our work, too, so that in the future you
should be able to read the news on the same
day it is printed.
NO ROAD WORK
TILL DUST rtltS
Although the city
council discussed the
poor condition of
Seldovia’s roads at *
last Friday’s council
meeting, it was ag- J

work can be accom
plished until the
ground is dryer* •
* Councilman George y
Cook reported that
John Groothof has
agreed to furnish a
tractor and labor for
half a day’s work in
repairing roads torn
up during the con
struction work on the
new Seldovia Light
and Power Plant.
