Post Office
Reels Under
Heavy Load

The Bluffton Post Office force
staggered Monday and Tuesday
as it felt the first full impact of
Christmas mail, but looked for
ward to even heavier loads be-
fore the last greeting card is de-
livered.
Postmaster Ralph Stearns said
that Bluffton patrons seem to be
cooperating with the mail
early plea. The outgoing mail
Monday and Tuesday appeared
unusually heavy for that early in
the season.
A. total of 122 bags of mail was
dispatched Monday and the
amount nearly doubled to 224
bags on Tuesday. The load was
so heavy Tuesday evening that
a special truck had to be sum-
moned from Lima when the reg
ular driver was unable to take
the entire load.
Contributing to the heavy out
going mail were an unusual num-
Der of parcel post mailings from
Rluffton industries The rest Of
flee cancellipg machines sent TO-
1913 greeting cards and letters on
their way Monday, and on Tues
day the number climbed to 12,-
191. Peak dispatches generally
reach the $1,000 mark.
