Heavy r. n. Mail

A railway mail clerk who has been

the past So years. says that he never
before has seen such heavy MATHS go
ing over the roads of this vicinity al
there are this year. This indeed
seems stranEe. considering the high
cost Of everything. But with the SER
vice men o. the larger part Of them
at home, il must be that the Chrtst-
mas mailing 10 coming in a bulk.
Last year when 20 many Of the boys
were overseas, the Christmas pack
ages for them had to be sent away
earlier. Then again the spirit Of CIV
ing must be intensified.
