CHRISTMAS WILL
 SOON BE HERE

Washington. October 26.--The first of- ficial note of the approach of Christmas appeared today when the postoffice de- partment issued warning to all post masters that Portugal. Guatemala and Uruguay refused to admit to their mall articles bearing new postage "Christmas'' stamps or other adhesive charity stamps or label. Portugal objection, however, is limited to such stamps as resemble regular postage stamps. ~ {
 Other countries, such as Great Britain, Germany, British East Africa and a host of British dependencies will admit arti- cles bearing such stamps when the stamps are affixed to the reverse and not to ad- dress side.s The postal officials announce that articles to be refused admittance to the countries mentioned will not be forwarded from the United States, but will be returned to the persons mailing them.
 Incidentally the department has issued the usual annual caution that to avoid delay in handling articles bearing Christi mas stamps to be transmitted in the in- ternational mails. the covers of such articles should bear the full name and address of the senders
