In appreciation for the showing made by the people of Estero, Mr. Warfield wrote the following to Brother George W. Hunt : "Dear Mr. Hunt: I am taking the first opportunity, having just returned to Balti- more from Florida and a trip over the lines, to thank you for the many courtesies of the citizens of Estero who were kind enough to extend us such an unusual welcome on the occasion of the ceremonies at Estero incident to the opening of the new lines. I appreciate more than I can say what you have all done for the Seaboard and its President, also our guests. .

Davies Warfield, Presi- dent." , Uncle Sam is now bringing the mail to Estero via the Seaboard Air. Line.
