handled well,
Lee reports
Despite a heavy holiday mail
volume and adverse weather,
the Grass Valley post office
will be generally clear of
Christmas mail by Saturday,
Dec. 23, Postmaster Bob Lee
said today.
“T want to commend all the
employes of the Grass Valley
post office for an_ extraordinary job of processing
and delivering the avalanche
of Christmas mail with
dispatch and efficiency’’ Lee
said.
The public also helped to
provide an efficient Christmas
mail operation by mailing
early in accordance with a
series of recommended
mailing dates which were
announced earlier this year.
This public cooperation has
been especially helpful this
year and as a result most
postal employes will be off on

‘may enjoy the _ holiday
weekend with their families.
The post office will be closed
on both days.
