Promotion For Good Clerks.
In cities having sub-stations, clerks are eligible to promotion to assistant superintendent, and then to superintendent, with salaries ranging from $1,300 to $2,500. They may also file applications with the postmaster through their station superintendent for transfer to another branch of the service, such as registry division. No other examination is necessary, the places there, as also on the windows, inquiry department, and on money order windows being given to clerks who show meritorious service. The only promotion examination given is to the money order division, which is not to be confused with positions at money order windows. Besides involving grave responsibilities the clerks in the money order division are subject only to day work and have no night shifts.
