BUT APPLY ANYWAY
COMMISSIONER SAYS
Although the 1950 motor ve
hicle licenses probably will not
arrive in Palmer until early in
January, because of the c'hrist
mas pile-up in mail, applications
for the licenses can be filed now
at the office of U. S. Commission
er Dorothy Saxton.
Mrs. Saxton urges that automo
bile owners take this opportunity
to apply for their license and
thus avoid the rush and waiting
in line which is certain to result
later
The commissioner’s office is
open from 9 a. m. to 5:30 p. m.,
Monday through Friday. It will
be closed all day on Dec 24 and
26 and on Jan. 2

summer of 1951.
