MELBOURNE READY FUR "SAN1Y CLAUSE
Postmaster Arrar1ges to Handle fin Record Time All Christmas Mail.

..There will be no delay in handling Christmas packages or other mail during the holidays at the Pine Bluff postoffice,' said Postmaster John D. Wilbourne yesterday. "We will have no more congestion than last year. because we will have extra clerks and and other wise handling the lhallsl Arrangements for this extra force have already been completed"
 Postmaster Wilburne is of the opin- ion that every letter and package mailed at the local office will be dis patched the same day it is mailed, and every letter or parcel will be delivered the same it is received at the local office. That was the record established last year in this city, and Postmaster Wilbourne has perfected his plans for maintaining it this Christmas.
 For handling the parcels and pack ages, three wagons will be used, one for each of three sections of the city. Each wagon will have a driver and two carriers, this force being capa- ble Of handling the entire city accord ing to the plans mapped out. Extra clerks will be used in the postoffice during the several days when the big gest rush is on, and if necessary the entire force will work little over time, to handle the business. The ! rural carriers will make their reg aular trips. even on Christmas Day, and 1t is not believed they will need any help, although they may take longer to cover their routes. The force of eleven regular and two sub stitute carriers now regularly enl- ployed in the delivery of mail may not be increased for the holidays, but if there is need for a larger force in that department, more substitute car- x riers will be impressed into service. Additional service will be provided at the parcel post window during the several days immediately prior to Christmas.
 The usual instructions from Wash ington have been received here rela- tive to the handling of the heavy bulk Of holiday mail, but except for one item, there is nothing new in these circulars. The one new feature is the announcement that a parcel post pack age, properly wrapped and stamped and a first-class letter, also properly stamped. may be attached one to the other. this allowing of a present to be accompanied by it's Christmas mes sage. In the past the present would go by itself as parcel post. bearing no written word, while the letter would go by first class mail, also by itself The only difference between the old and the new methods is that the two may be attached, if each bears the proper amount of postage stamps. This will mean that the recipient will get the package and the message at the same time, desideratum gen erally earnestly hoped by the sender.
 The business being done these days at the postoffice, and especially at the parcel post window. indicates that Pine Bluff people are shopping ear- N." Already quite large number of Christmas packages are being for warded to relatives and friends by To- cal people, most of the packages bear ing the now familiar sticker-tag, Not to be opened until Christmas" fi
