=e. The outside address should follow one of the forms given below:= +---------------------------------------------------+ | R. E. Stearns | | 512 Chapel Hill St. | | Durham, N. C. | | | | | | Mr. Donald Kemp | | 3314 Salem Street | | Baltimore | | Maryland | +---------------------------------------------------+ +---------------------------------------------------+ | Bentley Davis | | 906 Park Street | | Ogden, Utah | | | | | | Rogers, Mead, and Company | | 2401 Eighth Avenue | | Los Angeles | | California | +---------------------------------------------------+ Note.--An abbreviation in an address is followed by a period.

Reverend Mr. Beecher is a correct address for a minister; not "Rev. Beecher". If a title of respect is placed before a name (Professor, Dr., Honorable), it is undesirable to place another title after the name (Secretary, M.D., Ph.D., Principal, Esq.). =f.
