Bear These Facts in Mind When
Packing Your Christmas Parcel,
Nothing should 60 in a Christmas
Parcel which will not keep fresh from
the time of packing until Christmas.
Dried fruits and other food prod
ucts should be packed in small tin or
wooden boxes, one-quarter to one.half
pound size.
Hard candy, including chocolate,
would probably be safe in tinfoil or
heavy card board, but no soft choco-
lates nor anything that could possibly
be crushed should be used, as the re-
naming contents Of the package
might be spoiled thereby.
Several dainties packed in oblong
tin boxes holding each a quarter of a
pound, will provide a better variety
for a packet than a larger quantity of
a single connection.
No liquid nor articles packed in
glass should be placed in the package.
For wrapping the gifts, use a kha-
ki-colored handkerchief, twenty-seyen
inches square.
When the package has been packed
it should be taken %unwrapped and un-
sealed, together with the label and
sufficient stamps, to the nearest col
lection center designated by the Red
Cross. After the package has passed
the inspection of the Red Cross repre-
sentatives as to contents and weight,
and been wrapped in stout paper. the
Christina label bearing the address
Of the nan for whom it is intended Is
placed on it. The person sending the
package in the presence of the Rec
Cross worker is required to afiz
stamps sufficient to carry it to Hobo
ken, N. ]. The postal charges are
to be at the rate of fourth class o,
parcels post zone rate. A label Ger.
tifying that the inspection has beer
completed by the Red. Cross is placed
on the package which is left in the
custody of the Red Cross until deliv.
cred to the nostal authorities.
