EvEKr Sorrgz:n POSTAL CARD Nusr HAVE 4
TwO-cEyT STAMP UN II ELSE IT BE-
CONES \ DEAD LETTER.
One Of the most prolific sources OF annoy
9,-+ since thP 0nPnfno
the eynCsiti.ii. has been the enormous
QUANTITY OF postal cards. purportiog TO be
souvenirs oithr exposition, which have daily
Hnodrd the outgoing mails.
:ianl ,artis4 who have written On these
,..ostal cards !:fe wondered why no answers
lave been r""'!:ed from them. The eH-
PLANTATION j. staple enough: most, Of them
i:ave failed - reach their distinction.
Thousands of these postal cards have been
sold OH the exposition grounds and else
where. They are beautiful specimens OF
,srttiisstiiccTork and each is enhciished with a
slieti.te OF one OF the exposition buildings.
The aSDEarance of the card is similar to that
of an ordinary postal and ignorant parties
are very easily misled by the supposition
that single one-cent will carry the postalto
the proper destination.
..'i'he cards have wrought a great deal Of
mischief said one OF the officials. land
every mail that goes out adds iresh complI-
cations. It is true common ordinary postal
card only costs one cent. but that does not
give any one the right to put 4 one-ceDt
Stanp Oh any kind Of rastehoard and call it
Il postal ..ari. The government claims the
s0i: right 20 manufacture postal cards and
this prviI'.:c il accorded 70 no one else. If
a two-cc.st stamp is rnt on the souvenir
cards thrv will 90 all right. but 4 one-cent
stamp is not enough TO carry them.
The cards .r" ;ertcctIy good as souvenirs
and very ornamental. but in order to be
used BY letter writer's they must bear two
cent STAMP and ;:e treated as any other ordi-
nary piece Of paSteboacd.
