Casey Wood Jr. Oakvillle-Trafalgar Journal, Dear Casey: Your editorial of two issues ago with respect to Postal Deli- very in Oakville was rather apt and very much to the point, and I hope that the postal authorities ave done more than just take note of it. I have experienced several de- lays in delivery of recent weeks, in one case mail was delivered twelve days after the date of re- ceipt at the local post-office, and in gnother case a cheque was sim. ilarly delayed for ten days. Even with consideration for va- cations and "green-help", such de- lays are inexcusable and should be corrected. Hopefully yours, J. N. Milne.
