ASK ALL START
XMAS SHOPPING
State Council of Defense Officials
Want Last Rush Hours Banned
During 1918.

| CHRISTMAS shopping rushes are
a thing of the past if people OF
Rock Island carry out the state
council of defense's requests.
Shopping is to be started at once
if the patriotic residents of Rock
| Island care to cooperate with the
defense officials. Six rules for
/ shoppers have been issued by the
council and in carrying out their
/ requirements the people can feel
/ assured that they are helping the
country during the present period
! according to the statement issued
recently by the defense executives.
The rules as issued to Christmas
shoppers are as follows:
Spread Christmas shopping over
the months of October, November
and December. Do not wait Start
now
shop during the early hours Of
the day.
Buy useful gifts Cthis does not
apply to toys.)
Send before Dec. 5 all Christ
mas packages which must go by
mail or express.
Avoid giving bulky articles. if
they must be sent by mail, freight
or EXPRESS
Garry home your purchases
when possible and do not request
special deliveries"
The following statement is is
sued by the council in connec-
ton with the requests:
The foregoing rules must be
carried out so that man power will
be released for war work and
transportation not congested.
These rules are the outcome OF
an agreement between the mer-
chants of the country and the war
industries board. The commercial
economy administration of the
state council of defense is charged
with the duty of carrying them out.
The public must help, so begin
your Christmas shopping now, and
remember the rules"
