                                   DEPARTEMENT MAJORITE VARIANT

      In cases where the small volume of mail for a departement did not justify the allocation of

      individual sorting bins for each town, the first three letters of the town were ignored and
      replaced by the transcription KKK. In turn the mail would be directed to a single bin designated

      departement majorite.
