CHRISTMAS RUSH IS
ON At POSTOFf|CE
SANTA CLAUS GETTING BUSY
EARLY THIS YEAR. POSTMAS-
TER FULLER SAYS.

The Christmas rush of mail matter
is on with vengeance at the HattieS-
burg postoffice. and Postmaster Fni-
Ter is leaving nothing undone to Ia
cilitate prompt deliveries. But little
difficulty has been experienced thus
far in handling the mails.
Indications are that all Christmas
package records of the local postofilce
will be broken this year. which means
that more gifts are being sent TO dit
ferent people, and more articles have
been bought from the stores.
The rush right now is mostly cou-
fined to packages being sent by firms
in the East and North to Hattiesburg
business houses, late orders being
filled by parcel post OF course a large
number of packages contain gifts
from individuals, but the big rush in
present packages will begin early next
week.
