'MAIL EARLY FOR CHRISTMAS' 1961 Stressing the need for everyone to cooperate on his 1861 "Mail Early For Christmas" Campaign, Postmaster Marshall N. McFie said today, "Early mailing of all Christmas cards and gifts is the biggest single factor in getting everything delivered before Christmas." Naturally, the Post Office Department plans to expand its facilities and to provide extra help during the Christmas rush, but in the final analysis, if you'll follow these three simple rules you can be certain hot to disapoint friends and loved ones on Christmas Day — Wrap your Christmas gifts securely — Be sure they are addressed clearly and correctly — and Mail all you gifts and cards early. The Postmaster said further, "I hate to see folks take chances on mailing poorly wrapped packages. Despite careful handling every year, too many packages break open in transit and too often we have to puzzle over names and addresses which are incomplete or simply cannot be read at all." "If you have any articles of unusual size or bulk, better check with the Post Office before attempting to mail them," the Postmaster warns. The limits on size and weight of packages varies, depending on where you mail your package from. As an extra precaution against loss, Postmaster McFie advised placing both your return address and the recipients address inside the carton or package before it is wrapped. If you use Christmas stickers or seals, put them on the back of your Christmas cards and packages so that they will not conflict with the address on the front. Make sure that correct postage is firmly affixed to each card and package. When mailing gifts, it is a good idea to place a piece of transparent cellophane tape over the address portion of the label to prevent defacing it in transit. And always be sure, of course, to include the recipients full name, street address, city, zone and state. Because the entire Christmas mailing period is primarily a battle against time, "Do it now" is the slogan from here on in. Don't put off your Christmas mailing while you still have ample time because this means that dreaded pile-ups will occur at the Post Office, causing unavoidable slowdowns in deliveries as the holiday approaches. The post office windows are open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays and Saturdays from December 9 to December 23 for added convenience. The Postmaster asks the cooperation of all business firms to delay mailing circulars and catalogs until after December 25 to keep the mails clear for the Christmas rush. The Postmaster said he is most appreciative of the interest and cooperation shown by the mailing public so far, and reminds us that all mail going long distances should be sent by December 19th. Christmas packages for local delivery should be mailed not later than December 15, and be sure THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, Veterans Administration statutory burial allowance is now $250.00.
