Do you ham radio?
No. But I transmute every once in awhile.
Into what?
Not what. Where.
Oh! Ok, I got it.

Hardly an address!
Very true, but then the card was most likely delivered to the recipient. Times were different back then. Mabel's last name was probably known at the local post office, where, come to think of it, her mail might have actually been held for her to pick up when she came into town to get groceries, etc. Also, the mailmen probably knew the names of everyone along their route. Just a theory, but there were fewer people in the world back then and it might have been easier to deliver mail with vague addresses. Overpopulation does have its drawbacks, I guess.
