WILDE BARNETT BAIRD SPAINHOWER by Richard G. Bell Postmaster, Dugway The Dugway Postal Employees are asking local residents, to help the people who help bring you Christmas by mailing all your packages by Dec. 10 and all your cards by Dec. 15. The use of Zip Code is important in faster handling of your mail especially at Christmas time. Zip Code should be in your return address as well as the sending address of both parcels and cards. ALL PARCELS must have a return address and be zip coded. Zip code directory information is available in the lobby of the post office or by calling the post office, preferably between the hours of 8:30 and - Snow 10:30 a.m. We find it very helpful if customers would separate their greeting cards where there are five or more cards for one city or state and tie these with string or rubber band and mail early in the day, before 2:00 p.m. Customers should take care in the packing and wrapping of their packages. We receive a lot of publicity about damage caused by die employees in the Postal Service. However, the largest cause of damage is due to poor preparation for mailing by the sender. If you have a question concerning the liest way to prepare certain articles for mailing, a postal employee will be glad to assist you. STRONG BOXES and sufficient packing material are the best insurance for Christmas gifts to arrive in good condition. Local postal employees will be happy to assist you wherever with your Christmas possible out-of-to- 8.0 Fog Thunderstorms 0.5 Rain or drizzle5.0 Sustained Superior Performance Dee Ray Cardner, Albert S.
