man.

MISSING XMAS PRESENTS
IN MONTCLAIR POSTOFFICE

Anyone who expected Christmas
present and did not get it would do
well to call at the Montclair post
office. Postmaster Biddulph says he
has more than dozen fourth-class
parcels mailed before Christmas that
have not yet been claimed. The adj
dresses of the packages have been
lost because of improper wrapping.
The parcel post has proved big
boon to business in Montclair, ac-
cording to the postmaster. In the
past fifteen days 4,430 packages went
through the Montclair Office. These
averaged in size from twelve ounces
to the limit of eleven pounds.
1t is pointed out that many de-
partment stores in cities adjacent to
Montclair are using the parcel post
for the delivery of goods instead of
their regular wagon delivery. A par
eel post delivery is made each day
