From September to after the Christmas holidays is the busiest sea­ son for Uncle Sam's local unit. Dur­ ing this period, it is estimated that between 3,000 and 5,000 pieces of first-class mail are passed through the cancelling machine daily. Brother Theogene, C.S.C, is post­ master of the Notre Dame postoffice. Besides him, Brother Marcellinus, C.S.C, Brother Austin, C.S.C, Broth­ er Syiverius, C.S.C, Brother Oliver, C.S.C., and Mr. Alber assist in the handling of the business. In addition three special delivery carriers are re­ quired to handle the "special deliver­ ies," plus a carrier for each of the halls.
