instances these quotations also rep
resented lowest levels Of recent years.
Apart from the increasing beartsh-
ness Of large trading element, moth

further reaction. Vague peace rumors
were without effect, except to add to
the confusion already existing in con-
sentative circles.

How To Send Christmas
Packages to the Soldiers

Christmas boxes not to exceed
twenty pounds can be sent to
the American boys in France,
under a new ruling announced
by the postal authorities, provid-
ed the boxes are wooden and are
mailed by December /.
Persons sending Christmas
cheer to the boys on the battle
fronts OF Europe must pack their
gifts in wooden boxes, if the par
eel exceeds seven pounds in
weight. Twenty pounds is the
maximum weight and the boxes
must be equipped with hinge
tops, fastened with screws, to
permit easy inspection. All
such boxes must be mailed at
postofices and not at pickup
stations.
Perishable foods will not be
accepted unless packed in cans
or glass jars. The cost of send
ing these packages to the soldiers
overseas will be II cents per
pound. Branches of the AmerI-
can postal service have been
placed in American army camps
in Europe and packages for the
American soldiers will be hand
led entirely thru the American
service.
