Postmaster T. ]. Tweedy has receiv-
ed from the postmaster general In
connection with instructions relative
to receiving parcels for soldiers in
France, statement of the cost of
many articles which can be purchased
at the Y. NJ. c. A. huts In France.
This statement shows that cigarettes,
tobacco and many other things such
as the home folks have been sending
over seas to the boys, can be bought
cheaper than here. This was one of
the reasons which prompted the gov
eminent to issue orders TO postmasters
not to receive parcels for shipment to
France except at the approved re-
quests OF the boys themselves.
