sick and special leave must be shown as from the 1st December to the 30th November.
152. Four sets of schedules must be prepared, as follows:—
(1.) Permanent Postmasters (beginning with the Chief Postmaster).
(2.) Clerks, telegraphists, cadets. (In the case of chief telegraph-offices, beginning with the Officer in Charge.)
(3.) Exchange, despatch, and counter clerks, distributors, message-boys. (The designation of each officer to be shown under the heading “Office.”)
(4.) Letter-carriers, messengers. (The designation of each officer to be shown under the heading “Office.”)
Linemen should make individual applications to the Superintendent of Electric Lines, through the District Inspectors of Telegraphs.
153. In cases in which officers do not desire leave of absence, their names, and the names of their offices, length of service, and leave taken, must appear in the proper places.

To insure uniformity care should be taken to prepare the schedules in accordance with the directions thereon. Telegraph messengers should be designated “Message-boys,” and Post-office messengers shown as “P.O.
