Show MAIL EARLY TO INSURE CHRISTMAS DELIVERY The national emergency has disrupted all Christmas mailing schedules which the post office had planned to announce for information in-formation of those sending gifts by parcel post. The best advice that can be given to patrons of the service is to "shop now and mail early for early delivery". This slogan is more pertinent this year than for many years past, Postmaster Earl T. James i states. Securely pack and wrap parcels, using strong paper and heavy twine. Mark easily damaged dam-aged articles "fragile". Perishable items should be in suitable container con-tainer with "perishable" plainly marked on the outside. .No parcel par-cel may be more than 100 inches in length and girth combined nor exceed 70 pounds in weight. For further information inquire at the post office. Mr. James also states that the post office will be open all day, Saturday, December De-cember 20. |
