IS BORDERING ON NUISANCE The Chamber of Com merce Bulletin is alarmed over the number of solici tors working the business section the past few weeks and has set out to do some thing very real about it If you have anything on your chest along this line the Chamber would like to know of it. The Bulletin has the fol lowing to say in its latest issue; “The merchants of New berry have been subjected to a multitude of solicita tions recently. They have grown to such a number that they are becoming bur densome upon the mer chants, and each and every solicitation, good or bad, is suffering because of the number being made now. Many of these solicitations have been made without permits.’’ Hood of Yule Mail Is Expected Postmaster G. K. Dominick opened the Yuletide Season of ficially today. He issued his annual appeal for early mail inv of Christmas greeting cards and gift packages. The Postmaster expects the greatest flood of Yuletide mail in local history. He predicted it would exceed “by a consid erable margin” the record- breaking 1948 holiday season, when 200,000 pieces of mail were cancelled. Christmas packages for dis tant States should be mailed by December 5, he declared. All Yuletide parcel post should be on its way by December 10. Christmas cards to friends and loved ones in other States should be deposited by Decem ber 15. Greetings for local de livery should click through the stamp cancellation machines at least a week before Christmas. To keep Christmas mail on schedule, the Postmaster asks that you 1. Stop at the post office next week to purchase the extra stamps you’re going to need, thus avoiding last • minute crowds. When buying stamps for Christmas cards, bear in mind the desirability of send ing the cards as first class mail; also the fact that the rate for unsealed cards has been in creased from l%c to 2c each. 2. Check and revise your Christmas card address list this weekend. Purchase your Christmas cards early and ad dress and stamp them at once. Then stack them in a conven ient place for mailing at the proper time. 3. Lay in adequate supplies of heavy cardboard, sturdy out er paper, strong cord, and printed Fourth Class labels for wrapping parcel post. Pack ages are limited to 70 pounds in weight, and must not meas ure more than 100 inches in length and girth combined. Re peat the address inside the out er wrappings, in case they are damaged in transit. If you worry about the recip ient peeking, the Postmaster advises pasting “Do Not Open Until Christmas” stickers on packages and the backs of greeting card envelopes. BROTHER OF LATE PROFF.
