 HOLIDAYS AT THE POSTOFFlCE For the Christmas rush the postoffice has been provided with extra clerks and carriers and two of the latter have been detailed for the express duty of delivering registered letters and par cels. This will in many cases insure an earlier delivery of registers and will at the same time relieve matters at the postoffice where there is always a congestion of business during the holidays. Heretofore patrons had to go to the office to get registered par cels. The patrons are requested to mail their Christmas parcels as early as possible and not leave all work for the rush of the last moment. They are do- ing very well however and more people are attending to this business early than ever before. Another improve ment of the service between Phoenix and distant points and one that in- sures greater safety and earlier deliv- cry of registers than ever before is the extension of the through register pouch service The Phoenix postoffice now makes up pouches containing nothing but registers, direct to all the large cities. such as Kansas City. St. Louis. Chicago. Washington. and New York. Direct pouches are also made up to nearer junction points like Albuquer- que and La Junta.
