Literature on proper procedure ofmailing and pleas to mail early havebeen sent to every postmaster with

instructions to bring the “cry”beforeall users of the mail. The customaryinstructions on mailing perishablematter, fragile articles, special packs,addresses and postage have been re-ceived and are being stressed by

postal employees.Following is the statement releas-

ed by C. A. Luscher, postmaster:’“During the holiday time, the volumeof mail increases approximately 200per cent. It is a physical impossibil-ity to handle this great mass of mailmatter efficiently and promptly with-in a few days. Therefore to assuredelivery of the Christmas presents,

cards and letters by Christmas day,

the public should SHOP AND MAIL

EARLY. Do your Christmas shop-

ping so that you can mail your gifts,greetings and letters to relatives andfriends at least a week or ten days

before Christmas, according to thedistance. This will not only make it

certain that they are received before

Christmas day, but will be a great aidto the postal service and postal em-

ployees and enable them to spend the

Christmas holiday with their fami-lies.”

In mailing parcels, the only in-

structions or advice given out by Mr.

Luscher was to be sure that they arewrapped securely and bound in heavy

paper and by strong cord.The postal department seems more

concerned in relaying instructions on

wrapp'ng special packages. Umbrel-las, canes, golf sticks and other long

packages should be reinforced their

full length by strong strips of wood,

tightly wrapped and tied and suffic-

iently wrapped to withstand trans-portation, Mr. Luscher said.

Walter F. Brown, postmaster gen-

eral, said in a statement which will

be posted in all postoffices, Postof-fices will make very effort to handlethe Christmas mails without conges-

tion and delay, but owing to the

enormous volume this can be done

only with the co-operation of the pub-

lic. Compliance with the postmast-ers’ suggestions will greatly aid the

postoffice and insure the prompthandling of your mail.”
