other letters are already pushing
and jamming through the postal
machinery. One letter a day-for
each family of five persons in the
United States is given to Uncle
Sam to deliver.
When you send a parcel to the
post Office for mailing any day
there are about 100000 other
parcels ahead of yours passing
through the postal hopper. This
is in ordinary days; at Christmas
time it is multiplied many times.
One family in about every ten
puts a badly addressed letter in
the mail every day. This mixes
up over 100000 half.addressed
letters with the 100000 fully
addressed letters. That means
that the fully addressed letters
must wait on the slow-moving
poorly addressed letters just like
the larger boys and girls are
DELAYED BY a bunch of dad kids"
tagging along.
First find out if your family is
the careless one, then bear in
mind that your letters must be
handled by skilled mail distribu-
tors standing in post Offices and
on swaying postal cars of a mile
a-minute mail trains, often under
poor light.
The address on every letter..
card, or package must be correct
complete, and legible, including
the house number and name of
street, and the From" address
should be in the upper left-hand
corner SO that the mail will be
returned to you in case it is not
delivered. Do not abbreviate
names of States because so many
look alike when so abbreviated.
Put the proper, amount of post
age on your letters and wrap the
parcels carefully. Avoid fancy
writing, which causes post-office
clerks and letter carriers to stop
and study, and thus lose time.
Make the address plain and easily
read, and always use pen and ink
or typewriter and light, colored
envelopes, so as to save the eyes
of the post, office clerks. Do not
use envelopes of unusual size.
The LITTLE ones that are so
frequently used for cards and
notes at Christmas or other holt
day times cause an untold a.
mount of trouble and labor, as
they will not fit our canoeing
machines and must therefore be
Cancelled by hand. Because of
their size and tendency to slip out
of a package, these small envel-
opes are more likely to be over
looked or lost.
Mail your letters and packages
early in the day because this
avoids overlooking and delaying
mail at the end of the day.
