January 17, 2009

Page Turners book club will meet at 3 p.m. Jan. 31 at Downtown Books, 543 Yampa Ave., in Craig, to discuss "Screwtape Letters" by C.S. Lewis. Light refreshments will be served.

"Screwtape Letters" is a short book about the temptation from one view to another, where Christianity is concerned. C.S. Lewis is also the author of the "Chronicles of Narnia" series.

Newcomers are welcome, as is anyone who has read the book at some point in his or her life and those who only want to come to this book club discussion.

Post office: Clear ice, snow from mailboxes

With the arrival of snow, ice and difficult weather conditions, the Craig post office is asking postal customers to always clear a safe, accessible path to mailboxes.

Post office requests include:

• Make sure the mailbox is visible and free of snow and ice.

• Make sure mailboxes are safely accessible for letter carriers.

• Clear the mailbox area of snow, sleet, slush, ice and debris.

If mailboxes are blocked off and conditions are too difficult, letter carriers must consider safety and accessibility first and are instructed not to deliver to mailboxes and locations considered too difficult or unsafe to access.

For more information, call the Craig post office at 824-8506.
