materials. This small invest

and prevent delays which might
result if rewrapping were re

insure. A $10 gift, for example,
can bring only $10 compensa

for $100.
Get plenty of stamps on your
first trip to the post office to
avoid the time and expense of
additional trips.
Use Zip Code as a tool for
economy in mailing. When it is
used consistently on parcels
and cards, Zip Code helps pre
