will be returned to you in case it is

Put the proper amount of postage
on your letters and wrap the parcels
carefully. Avoid fancy writing,
which causes postoffice clerks and
letter carriers to stop and think, 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 postoffIce clerks, Do
not use envelopes of unusual size.

used for cards and notes at Christ
