WARNING ISSUED BY POSTMASTER I — J Gives Instructions Regarding Preparation Os Christmas Mail A warning on the use of Christmas seals or stickers on the address side of mail today was Issued by Harry | Fritzinger, Decatur postmaster, who' is in receipt of a bulletin from the United States postoffice department concerning Christmas mail. "Seals or stickers may be placed on the corresponding side of cards or on the side opposite the address on packages," said Mr. Fritzinger, "but they must not be placed on the address side. Such letters will be sent to the “dead letter office," thereby causing much delay,” he continued. “The postoffice will make every effort to handle Christmas mails without causing congestion and de-' lay. but to do this the co-operation' of the public must be obtained," Mr. Fritzhiger said. Following are other suggestions for Christmas mailing: Special Packing Suggestions “Umbrellas, canes and golf sticks should be re-enforced their full length by strong strips of wood, tightly wrapped and tied to withstand transportation. "Hats: Pack in strong corrugated or fiber boxes. Ordinary pasteboard hat boxes must be crated. Ladies' hats and stiff hats easily damaged should be marked “Fragile." "ShoeL Pack in strong boxes, preferably corrugated cardboard. Wrap with strong paper securely tied with heavy twine. "Candies: Inclose in strong outside boxes or containers. “Drawings, paintings, unmounted maps, etc.: Pack or wrap in strong material to avoid damage. When not flat, roll around a wooden core and then wrap and tie carefully or place in strong pasteboard tube. • ‘iSharp-pointed or sharp-edge instruments or tools must have points and edges fully guarded to prevent injury to clerks in handling or damI age to other mail. Crate suitable or thoroughly wrap so that they cannot cut through the wrapping. Fragile Articles Mentioned “Articles easily broken or crushed must be crated or securely wrapped. Use liberal quantities or excelsior, or like material, around, between the [ articles and the outside container. I “Glassware, fragile tops and crock- ’ ery must be packed so as to prevent i the escape of particles or pieces, if • broken in transit. ' "Cigars: Ordinary boxes of cigars • wrapped in paper only will not be (accepted. Pack in a manner to pre-, vent damage by shock or jar. Wrap in corrugated pasteboard or similar material. "All articles easily broken or damaged must be plainly marked “Fra- 1 gile. < “All articles likely to spoil within! the time reasonably required for, transportation and delivery will not be accepted for mailing.
