SENDER SHOULD PUT
NAME ON PACKAGES

The postoffice department has di-
rected postmasters to call the atten-
ton of patrons to the requirement of
having the name and address of the
sender on parcel post matter. The
regulations provide that a parcel of
fourth class matter should not be &C
cepted for mailing unless it bears the
name and address of the sender, which
should be preceded by the word
From" When a parcel of fourth class
matter which does not bear the name
and address of the sender is depos-
tied for mailing, and the sender is
known or can be ascertained from the
contents of the parcel, it must be re-
turned to him with the information
that his name and address should be
placed on it.
Postoffice patrons will therefore find
that it is very important and to their
interest to comply with these require
ments.
