Pointing up the need for coop

For Christmas" Campaign, Post
master G. G. Schlechty says if Pa
irons will follow three simple
rules, all Packages can be deliver
ed before Christmas Day: Wrap
them securely, Address them cor
rectly. and Mail them early. Am
plifying these rules, the Postmast-
cr said, Avoid the risk of mail
ing poorly wrapped packages. Use
corrugated mailing cartons, plenty
Of heavy brown wrapping paper
and be sure that every package is
tied with strong cord. Cartons con-
several gift packages should be
stuffed with tissue or old news
papers to cushion the shocks"
Speaking about correst address
ing of Christmas gifts and cards,
the Postmaster said: BE sure your
Christmas mailing list is up to
date and that you have the COM
plete name, address. zone number,
city and state for everyone on
your list Send all Christmas cards
by First-Class mail, because they
will be processed and delivered

or returned, if it becomes necess-
ary." Only Christmas cards sent
First-Class mail may carry writ
en- messages, a custom everyone
enjoys. Moreover, Christmas card
envelopes smaller than 2-&" by
q" or larger than 9" by II" re-
quire hand cancellation, and thus,
must carry First-Class postage.
The Postmaster asked everyone
to secure free labels at the Post
Officer marked "All For Local De-
livery and "Ail For Out of Town
Delivery" Then, sort the Christ
mas cards accordingly, tie them in
two separate bundles with each ad-
dress facing the same way. and
attach the correct label to each
bundle.
Early mailing of all Christmas
gifts end cards is the biggest fac
tor in getting everything delivered
before Christmas, accordin3 to the
Postmaster The whole Christmas
mailing period is a battle against
time.
In conclusion the Postmaster
said that he was glad to see that
many people are getting the
Christmas gifts and cards for dis
tant points mailed this week,
pointing out that all mail going
long distances should be sent be-
fore December 10th at the very
latest.
Christmas packages for local de-
livery should be mailed by Decem-
Der 18Th and ali Christmas cards
