SEND CHRISTMAS CARDS
BY FIRST-CLASS MAIL
Three-Cent Rate Advisable
For Both Practical and
Sentimental Reasons

In his general appeal to the

today emphasized the value Of
i.rst-class postage on Christnsss
sards- I'VE should remember" he
aid. that millions of people are
doing war work away from home.
and that other millions are in
Army Camps and Naval Stations.
Because Christmas cards are al
ways important sentimental mes
sages, and especially so in war
time, they should be mailed first
class. This gives them equality
with other first-class mail in the
matter of delivery time, and in
sures their forwarding to new
addresses. Here's a slogan that
seems particularly appropriate to
these messages Of good will at
Christmas time: 'FirSt-clasS

Mailing Suggestions Outlined
Postmaster Przybylsh then out
lined the suggested steps that the
public should take in order that
its Christmas mail may be delivered
promptly and safely.
Cd Mail all Christmas packages
by December l at the latest.
90 All first-claSs Christmas mail,
which includes Christmas cards,
should also be mailed in that time
unless they are so local that they
would arrive long before Christmas.
CD Be sure to address correctly,
and wrap all packages securely SO
as to afford the utmost protection.
"a Mail progressively. That is, do
not mail all your Christmas cards
and packages the same day but
space it out over several days to
help avoid confusion at the local
post office.
go As mentioned all Christmas
cards should be sent by first-class
mail. This is especially important
in these days when many people
have moved, in which case cards
mailed at first-claSS rates will be
forwarded.

to help" continued the postmaster,
