Harry F. Demers, mailman, on his route. Mr. Demers, Mailman #82, mail in hand and bulging bag over his shoulder, has apparently just left his branch in July of 1924. The post office is believed to have been the South Tacoma station then at 5446 South Union (South Tacoma Way) . Postman Demers was assigned to deliver the first mail to the Arlington district. This was his first regular route since being employed by the post office earlier in the year. Due to the effects of increased mail service since July 1st, 500 more homes have received delivery of mail directly to their doors. G42.1-119 (TNT 7-9-24, p. 15)
