SON
Xmas! Message
Christmas ic almost here.
Your great Post Office Depart
ment has a big job ahead and
needs your help.
Think what it means to be
Santa Claus to ou,r 100,000,000
people and to deliver Christmas
parcels to every family in this
great country within the short
space of a few days and without
dissapointment.
It can be done, and we’re
going to do it if we may have
your help. I want to enlist the
active assistance of every boy
and girl in the schools of our
country in getting parcels mailed
this week to relieve the rush that
directly before Christmas.
Will you go home to-day and
take thismessoge to your parents
and friends:
‘ ‘Our postmaster has asked us
to mail our Christmas parcels
THIS WEEK, for, unless we do,
Uncle Sam’s load may be so
heavy the last few days before
Christmas that he won’t be able
to deliver all the presents by
Christmas eve.”
The parcels must be well
wrapped and tied and addressed
plainly in order that they may
arrive in good condition with
their Christmasy appearance un
spoiled.
You can put on your packages,
‘‘Do not open until Christmas.”
And, there must be a number on
your house and a mail receptacle,
too, for, if there isn’t, Santa
Claus’s messenger, your letter
carrier, may not be able to find
the house where the presents
belongs.
There are some other things,
too, in which you can ageist in
improving the mail service and
in saving our great Government
millions of dollars a year that is
now wasted'beoause of our care
lessness—youra and mine.
Every day that you drop V
letter in the mail box 40,000,000
other letters are already pushing
and jamming through the postal
machinery. One letter a day for
each family of five persons in
the United States is given to
Uhcle Sam to deliver.
When you send a parcel to the
post office for mailing any day
there are about 8,000,000 other
parceis ahead of yours passing
through the postal hopper. This
i§ in ordinary days at Christmas
time it is multiplied many times.
One family In about every ten
puts a badly addressed letter in
the mail every day. This mixes
up over 2,000.000 half addressed
letters with the 20,000,000 fully
addressed letters. That means
that the .fully addressed letters
must wstit on the slow moving
poorly addressed lettprs just like
the larger boys and girls are de
layed by a bunch of ‘‘bad kids”
tagging along.
Yoy boys ..and girls can help
the Postal Service and save your
father some money, because he
has to help pay the cost of
searching addresses on letters
and parcels sent out by this one
careless and thoughtless family
in every ten.
First find out if your family is
the careless one, then bear in
mind that your letters must be
handled by skilled mail dis
tributors standing in post offices
and on swaying postal cars of a
mile-a-minute trains, often under
poor light.
The address oa every letter,
card or package must be correct,
complete and legible, including
the house number and name of
street, and the “From” addresjs
should be in the upper left-hand
corner so that the mail will be
returned to you in cas« it is not
delivered. Do not abbreviate
names of States, because so
many look alike when abbrevi
ated.
Put the proper amount of post-j
age on your letters and wrap the
parcels carefully. Avoid fancy-
writing which causes post-offirt?
clerks and letter carriers to stop
and study, and thus lose time.
Make the address plain and
easily read, and always use pen
and ink or typewriter and light-
colored envelopes, so as to save
the eyes of the post-office clerks.
Do not use envelopes of unusual
size. The little ones that are so
frequently used for cards and
notes at Christmas and other
hoiliday times cause an untold
amount of trouble and labor, as
they will net fit . our cancling
machines and must therefore be
canceled by hand. Because of
their size and tendency to slip
out of a package, these small
envelopes are more likely to be
overlooked or lost.
Mail your letters and packages
early in the day, because this
avoids overloading and delaying
mail at the end of the day.
Your local postmaster will tell
you more about the Postal
Service.
Do these things, and you will
win the grateful appreciation of
the people in your post office
and especially of
Your Postmaster General,
Will H. Hays.
P. S.—Don’t forget to mail
Christmas packages THIS
WEEK.

Search for Treasure
In Ocean
A ship’s treasure buried for
139 years has now, it is thought,
been located. Anyway, the East
India company’s ship Grosvenor,
which foundered off the coast of
Pondoland, South Africa, in 1872,
with $8,573,650 in specie, numer
ous gold and silver ingots, and
precious stones, including an al
most priceless parcel of emeralds
on board, has now been located.
The Grosvenor Bullion syndicate
has been organized and survey
work is already proceeding. The
consulting engineer in the oper
ation confirms the report that
the ship, which is said to lie in
from 18 to £5 feet of water only,
is intact from keel to deck. A
90-foot tunnel from shore to
ship is proposed. A large silver
Spanish coin bearieg a worn date
that appears to be 1722, a lighter
silver coin 'which appears to be
Indian and a small gold piece on
which an image may be fairly
discerned have been obtained
from persons living on the Pon
doland coast, and are believed to
have come from the sunken
