MID-YEAR RUSH GETS POST OFFICE COMING AND GOING

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

"Tutoring school notes may help the undergraduates, but they make a lot of extra work for the Post Office," said Mr. Arthur Stevens of the Cambridge office to a CRIMSON reporter in a through-the-bars interview at the stamp window yesterday. "Over 20,000 postal cards were used during the mid-years," he continued, "for the purpose of advertising printed notes to Harvard students, and I don't know how many letters besides.

"We have another rush--from men who want postals to put in their examination books. From some of the marks I have noticed on them, I don't see why there is such a hurry to get the returns. However, we usually sell about 2000 extra cards in the mid-year period."
