TIME EXTENDED.
FOR MAILING Of
SOLDIERS BOXES

An extension until Nov. 80 of the
zine for mailing Christmas packages
TO soldiers overseas is announced by
The war department and the Ded
Gross, which means ten more days for
preparing the packages and getting
them in the mail, the last day prev
iously announced having been Nov. 20.
Relatives of Amereicus soldiers have
been very slow in mailing their pack
ages, only 35 having been placed in the
hands of the local Red Cross up to
today, whereas arrangement have been
made to handle 500. A heavy last
minute rush, like Christmas shopping,
is expected
The soldiers packages are all be-
ing inspected and tagged by Mrs. ]. X.
Crabb, stock and record keeper for
the local branch of the Red Cross. She
Is receiving the packages in the larg
room set apart by Postmaster Daven-
port for that purpose over the post
office. She inspects the contents of
all packages, removes all unavailable
matter and seals, tags and certifies
them for transmission overseas, under
the war department regulations.
4 visit to the package receiving
room this morning revealed that
large number of fond mothers, sisters
and sweethearts of soldiers are not
strictly observing the mailing rules,
placing in the boxes many kinds of
perishable foods which have had to
be removed. One package contained
a whole roast chicken, which was
planned to give some soldier boy a
taste of home-cooking for his Xmas
dinner. There were cakes by the
peck that had been taken from the
boxes because of the restrictions. In
some instances the Red ross replaced
the perishables with cigarettes, chew
ing gum or other things that the
soldiers desire and that can be safely
shipped
1t is announced that because of the
inability of all the soldiers to get
their package labels through in time
for shipment of packages, the previous
rule requiring these labels from over
seas before mailing has been modified
tc permit mailing of packages upon
affidavit of member of the family of
a soldier. 1t was pointed out that,
now that the war is over the the sub
marine menace disappeared, and the
stopping of further troop shipments,
it will be possible to send more pack
ages than originally was possible, and
less time will be Required. 1t is the
hope of the War department and the
Red Cross that not one man in the
service overseas may be without a
package from home on Christmas
morning, and all activities have been
eentered on attaining that result.
