With the approach of the present holiday season and to avoid delay, confusion and loss of any mail mat ter, l would suggest that,
 1. All mail matter should be plainly addressed with pen and ink, have the name of the sender in the right hand corner with street num- ber, be securely packed with heavy tWine and strong paper. This pre- caution will secure the proper de- hVery and next proper return of the package if the same can not be delivered.
 Packages of value should by ali means be registered as it will in- Sure prompt delivery, the addressee giving proper receipt for same and the government will make restitu- tion in case of the loss of value of same Registered packages or let ters should be properly addressed with the name of the sender in the right hand corner of said letter or package.
 ,. Carriers serving residence districts will accept properly pre- pared letters and packages eff same is not too large an,. cumbersome for registration and must give the sender proper re- ceipts for same, if packagen on which carriers can not tell the re- quired amount of postage will be brought to the office and rated there and on his next trip he will inform the patrons the cost thereof. ., will deem it great favor if patrons will notify me in writing of any delinquency in,this respect on part of the carriers. He must at all times be 'prepared to accept properly prepared registered matter The advantage is that it will save considerable time for the patrons Tn coming to the office, and also save time waiting at the window for your turn at the office
 Foreign letters and packages can be sent to foreign countries in the Postal Union by Parcel Post" at the rate of 12 cents per pound up to II pounds on packages and cents per 1-2 ounce and cents for the fraction additional thereof for let ters.
