POSTAL SERVICE
WILLIS—"What did you think of that fellow's carrying the message to Garcia?"
GILLIS—"Don't blame him a bit. With our poor Post Office service, it was the only way he could get it to him."
COUNTRY LADY—"I've been expecting a packet of medicine by post for a week, and haven't received it yet."
POST-OFFICE CLERK—"Yes, madam. Kindly fill in this form, and state the nature of your complaint."
LADY—"Well, if you must know, it's indigestion."
Aunt Mehitable Trusalive wants to know why it is every letter she gets somebody is always printing on the outside: "Join the Navy." She declares to goodness she never thought of such a thing and if they don't stop she'll have the law on them.
DASHER—"This parcel-post package is being delivered in unusually quick time. How do you account for it?"
MAIL-CARRIER—"The department thought it contained a time-bomb, sir."-Judge.
FANNING—"What's become of that rubber stamp, 'Dictated, but not read,' that you used to use on your letters?"
DASHER—"I threw it away and got one that prints, 'Mailed, but not delivered.'"
