—-MAIL CONDITIONS TWENTY- FOUR YEARS AGO~There has been a good deal said about the mail service of Prince Edward le- land during the past year.

A glance‘ over the following news item taken from a Guardian of twenty-four years ago should be sudlcient|to make us very thankful indeed for the gmprovcd hanspoi-tation and mgfl services o.‘ the present time.
