Joel L. Jenkins of Flint Hill has retired from the position of Star Route mail carrier after a career which spans 39 years. Since 1933 he has taken the mail from Front Royal to Culpeper by way of Flint Hill, Washington, Sperryville, &c. to Culpeper. For a number of years he worked under a contract awarded W.B. Jenkins but in later years has handled the contract himself. Only a couple of times has he been off because of sickness in these many years. In addition to carrying the mail Mr. Jenkins has been delivery man and errand “boy” for a host of local residents. The contract has just been awarded Hazel Burke Grove of Front Royal.
