These bonds are also based on credit
rather than value and are wholly de-
pendent upon a tax which, at all
times, is subject to resistance. The

lesson. Ever resourceful and ever

allowing his assets to mature; that is,
by collecting on his assignments of

UNCLE SAM AS SANTA CLAUS
His Clerks And Carriers In the Local
postoffiCe Literally Up To Their
Eyes In Piles OF Christmas Pres
entS

The contribute of Santa Claus to
the mails is almost swamping the
clerks in the post Office. Where Or
dinarily few bundles of letters and
packages are piled upon the clerks
desks, the desks are now piled as high
as the mail will stay on and cords of
packages are piled on the floor around
them. Early this morning it was al
most impossible to walk about In the
distributing room at the post office.
There were huge piles of mail bags
scattered all about the room. They
melted before the attacks of the clerks
but were replenished almost as fast.
In the registry department Mrs. Howe
and her assistant were so surround
ed by bags and heaps of mail that the
reporter had to content himself with
and taking It for granted that they
were busy. The incoming mail is
heavier than the outgoing, showing
that in the matter of Christmas pres
ents Santa Claus has not sighted US.
Most of the packages have come
through in good condition, though
some of them are badly used up.
The clerks are working over time to
get the packages out promptly and that
nobody may be disappointed.
The carriers as they left the Office
this morning on their first trip were
veritable Santa Clauses. Each was
loaded with as much mail as he could
possibly carry. The increased vol
ume of mail will probably continue for
several days after Christmas. The
mails are always as heavy for two or
three days after Christmas az before.
Belated presents continue to come in
for weeks after. The receipts of the
