Like all merchants in town each year, he urges his pa* trons to shop—and mail—early. Postmaster Harry E. Moose is at it again with a few words of warn ing. He says that Christmas cards and gift packages are arriving at the post office far too slowly and that, if cards and packages are to arrive at their destination before December 25th, the cooperation of the public must be enlisted. Mr. Moose states that their can cellation machines now register about 8000 pieces of mail per day and that this will increase to 30,- 000 per day during the peak of the season. The Postmaster gives this ad vice: “Mail your Christmas presents for distant states immediately, and all others before December 15. Christmas cards for out of town delivery should be posted before December 15 and those with local addresses at least a week before Christmas. Be sure that each gift is carefully wrapped and tied. Print the complete address and return address.” 'O0 t ITS CHRISTMAS Time to reaffirm the won derful certainty of our love —our family devotion and our friendship. \ . . 4 t The anticipation of open ing a package gaily wrap ped goes hand in hand with the joy of the day’s signifi cance!
