Enroute go by Augu«TOGa., and pick up I her niece, HaWdt Epps and Caro- i lyn Grader, who will also spend %■ tile weekend at The Citadel. 2) Foodstuffs such as fruitcakes, cookies and candy seem to be the most popular gifts for servicemen. Don’t mail perishable items. Matches and lighter fluid are for- bidden. Expensive gifts should be sent by registered mail. Select a durable mailing carton of wood, metal or fiberboard. Line it with newspapers to cushion any shock. Fse a heavy wrapping paper and strong cord to prevent parcels breaking open. “It’s particularly important.” the Postmaster continued, “That an overseas address be correct and easy to read. Servicemen are on the move so much that any ad ditional delay may mean de’ivery after Christmas.” To avoid any such disappoint ments, Postmaster Dominick rec ommends that you hand-print the full name, rank, service number, branch of service, organization and the army or navy post office through which the mail is to be routed. Labels frequently fall off when exposed to moisture, so print di rectly on the wrapping paper. In clude your return address. Re peat them both inside on the mail ing carton. It’s also a good idea to inclose a list of contents.
