Largest crowd In history of 19th
congressional district postmasters'
meetings attended a banquet in
LeveUanft Saturday night. The
event, held in the American Legion
hall, was the' first such session of
the area mailmen in four years.
South Plains weather took the
"cracks” in addresses of home-
towners and visitors alike. ■
Postmaster. Harry H. Mann of
Levelland was host at the banquet
session, with places laid at the bar-
becue supper for 100 persons. Ar-
rangements of jonquils decorated
the speakers’ table.
At the helm for the program was
Ex-Serviceman -James Harley Dal-
las, postmaster at Brownfield, who
kept the ball rolling "throughout the
lengthy session without a dull mo-
ment.
Invocation was by Rev. Sam A.
Thomas, pastos.of the Levelland
First Methodist church. Greetings
were extended to the out-of-town
visitors by Mayor Roy N. Rodgers.
Mayor Rodgers assured the visi-
tors that the key to the city had
long since been thrown away, be-
cause visitors are always com-
pletely welcome in Levelland.
Nat Shidk, postmaster at Big
Spring the past 13 years, responded
'to the welcome. “Of course, in this
area, the farmers never know if
their farms are going to be here
tomorrow,” he began, with chief
reference to what he had heard
about last Thursday’s sandstorm-
one of the worst here in years.
Serious words entered Into every
talk, formal or informal, but it took
W. E. (Happy) Smith, Tahoka post-
master, to hit the proverbial nail on
the head. ’
"The postmaster has an important
place in the community,” he said.
“He contacts everybody in a com-
munity, and these people leave his
window satisfied with good service—
or should. Listen to the suggestions
of your customers,” he suggested,
“most of them can be made into
constructive working plans.
"A postmaster,’’ Smith declared,
“builds good will toward
munity and toward the
government.”
Others speaking briefly
discussions were Postmasters Owen
Taylor of Lamesa, Amos Howard of
Lubbock, K. L. Scudder of Slaton,
Mrs. G. H. Brashear of Petersburg,
Shick and Mann.
Mrs. Joe Tunnell, violinist, was
presented in a trio of numbers, with
accompaniment by Mrs. G. C. Clapp.
Mrs. Clapp also played for group
singing, directed by Zed Robinson
of Enochs.
Robinson added life to the pro-
gram by a couple of impromptu vo-
cal.. selections, for which he played
his own piano accompaniment.
Announcements were made con-
cerning the state postmasters’ con-
vention in Austin on March 24-26.
Letter of greeting from Congress-
man George Mahon was read.
