RULES GOVERNING EXAMINATIONS.
Competitors Required to State Clearly Whether They
Desire Eligibility for Clerk or Carrier.
There are in the United States, thirteen United States Civil Service Districts, and in each, examinations for letter carrier and clerk are held yearly. THE CHIEF has obtained from the United States Civil Service Commission the regulations governing the examinations in each district, the post offices for which examinations may be taken, the rules relative to the registers for clerk or carrier in each district, the approximate dates when examinations are held and whether or not more than one examination may be taken in the same Civil Service district. Intending competitors should read carefully the section covering their particular district, so as to know whether their names can be placed on the carrier and clerk register, or only on one.
