SCURRY to t I "Mail Early’ request made Postmaster Harry Moose re minded Newberry residents to day that there are only 22 naftil- ing days before Christmas. t “While that may seem a long time to most people, it is frighteningly short to those of us in the postal service,” he said. “Postmaster General O’ Brien has predicted that well over 8 billion pieces of -mail must be delivered between now and Christmas Eve, a new rec ord. “We are asking everyone to start thinking about their Christmas shopping and mail ing now. If all holiday mail were to hit the postal system at one time it is obvious that we would have difficulty de livering every piece in time. The Newberry Post Office expects to handle 500,000 pieces of mail during the holiday rush, the Postmaster said. Mailing early and spreading the mail flow out "along the entire pre-Christmas season is the key to better mail service at this time of year. Last year the public coop eration was “tremendous,” acr cording to Mr. Moose. Vhfoially every piece of holiday i jpiail was delivered before < Christ mas day. This year witbi ip- creased volume because of the continuing strength of the economy we are hoping to see that fine cooperative spirit a- gain” he said.
