You boys and girls can help the
Postal Service and save your father

the careless one, then bear in mind
that your letter must be handled by
skilled mail distributors standing
in post offices and on swaying pos
tai cars of mile-a-minute train,
often under. poor light.
The address on every 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 abbrev-
late the name of States, because so
many look alike when abbreviated.
Put the proper amount of postage
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 ad-
dress plain and easily read, and al
ways use pen and ink or typewriter
and light-colored envelopes. so as to
save the eyes of the post-office

so frequently used for, cards and
notes at Christmas or other holiday
times cause an untold amount OF
trouble and labor. as they will not

Your local postmaster and your
teachers will tell you more about
