The Postman
The Postman is an important link of the people to the outside world. Come rain or shine, the postman starts his daily rounds six mornings a week either on foot or by bicycle. Dressed in Khaki uniform and a colourful turban to beat the sun, the postman goes delivering mail. Normally, the postman has a set pattern for his visits. He carries a bag full of letters. They include ordinary letters, registered letters, money orders and parcels. Once in a while, he carries telegrams which has good news as well as bad ones. He knows everyone in the neighbourhood and is the most likeable person. In villages, he performs additional duties of reading out the contents of the letter to someone who does not know how to read. When he delivers the money orders, he gets some financial tips. Though time is rapidly changing. But he has his own importance especially in rural India.
A Village Fair
Village fairs are very common in India. They are generally held on the occasion of some religious festivals. The site of the fair is generally a sacred place. The special feature of the village fairs is that they fulfil the needs of the rural people. I visited Ramnavami fair at my village Laxmipur in Bihar. The purchase and sale of cattle were the greatest attractions of the fairs. For this purpose, even people of towns visit the fairs. Generally, shops of one kind are arranged in one row. There are shops of sweets, tea, utensils, toys, wooden articles, handloom cloths, etc. Beside shops, there were hawkers who move about up and down the fair and sell their own little products. The village fair serves as a meeting place for people living far away from one another. It is also a good place for advertisement and propaganda.
Importance Of Trees
Trees are Nature's wonderful gifts. They are also man's most selfless and sincere friends. They are friendly to earth, to birds and animals and to the climate. With their roots, they hold the soil tightly and save it from getting wshed away. They provide space for nest making to birds. They provide protection to monkeys from other animals. They attract the rains, release oxygen and keep the air cool. Above all, they are a source of fruits, herbs, rubber and timber. Reckless cutting of trees will prove dear for us. We should plant and nuture more trees.
