Delivery delays prompt Herald complaint across country points
The Herald apologizes for subscribers north and south of the CPR line not receiving papers until two to four days after publication. A new eastbound train service since September 27 causes bundles to go via Portage la Prairie, delaying delivery. Readers are urged in MacGregor to collect bundles on Thursday afternoons to reduce delays.
