Funeral Services
John Whitaker, Sr.
Held Last Friday r
Camden community was sad
dened Thursday by the announce
ment of the passing of an out
standing citizen, John Whitaker,
Sr... whose demise occured in a
Columbia hospital at 11:30 a. m.,
following an illness of three
months dura
ition.
Bom- 79 years ago at Longtown,
Mr. Whitaker spent practically all

Pirstn
up in the dead letter office in Los
Angeles or Jersey City."
The postmaster recommends
sending all Christmas cards by
first-class mail which means with
three-cent stamps.
-class mail is entitled to
'directory service" by skilled iy>rt
office clerks who wifi try to trace
down addresses who have moved
since you mailed your Christmas
cards last year.
Only first-class mail will be for
warded from one address to the
other or returned to the sender!
without collection of additional
postage if the addressee is not lo
cated. It will come back, that is,
provided you make sure to place
kit return address on each
iristmas card you mail.
However, if you decide anyhow
to mail your Christmas cards with
1%-cent stamps — keep your
tongue in your cheek and off that
flap! Third-class mail must not be
sealed and must not contain per
sonal messages, although a hand
written signature is permissible.
Only one effort is made to deliver
it ami if the address is incorrect
or incomplete, your cheerful but
misdirected Christmas card will
spend a' lonely Yuletide in the
dead letter office.
