United States Post Office
The post office is located at the corner of Mazon and Prairie.  The
corner stone laying of the Post Office took place January 2, 1937, and
the dedication was on April 10, 1937.  The mural on the east wall was done
by Carlos Lopez in 1937.  The subject of the fresco is the off loading of
mail.  The small scenes below depict the dangers early mail carriers are
said to have encountered.  Mr. Lopez's most ambitious work is a Civil
War scene in the Register of Deeds Building in Washington, D. C.
