No requests from the addressees are required In connection with Christmas parcels mailed to Army personnel DURING THIS PER IOD ONLY. Patrons should endorse each gilt parcel "Christinas Parcel." Special effort will he made to effect delivery of all Christmas parcels mailed during that period in time for Christmas.

I wood, solid fiberboard, or strong < I double-faced eorrnpated fiberboard, ‘reinforced with strong gummed paper tape or tied with strong! twine, or both. It is highly d< •<ir-■ able that all fiberboard boxes be! securely wrapp'd in heavy paper, if available, as experience lias shown that boxes without an outer I i wrapper often become crushed or I split, thus allowing the contents to I I escape Furthermore, as each par I eel Is subject to censorship, delay j I in handling may be minimized by: securing the covering of the par- , cel so as to permit ready Inspection i of the contents. When combination packages are made up. including miscellaneous toilet articles, hard candies, soaps, etc., the contents should be tightly packed, in order that the several articles may not be loosened in transit, damaging the contents or the covering of the panes Christmas boxes should be enclosed In substantial containers. Hard candles. nuts, caramels < including those covered with chocolaet. cookies, fruit cake, and chocolate bars individually wrapped In waxed paper should be enclosed in Inner boxes of wood, metal, or cardboard. Soft candles, whether homemade or commercial, do not carry well. Sealed packages of candy, cigars, tobacco, and toilet articles In simplest mercantile form may be placed in parcels without affecting the parcel-post classlth atlon of such packages Sharppointed or sharp-edged instruments. such as razors, knives, etc., must have their points or edges protected so they cannot cut through their coverings and damage other mall or injure postal employees, PERISHABLE MATTER Perishable matter will not be accept ed. and the sending of fragile articles should be discouraged PROHIBITED ARTIC LES Intoxicants, -nflamniable materials (including matches of all kinds and lighter fluids), and poisons, or compositions which may kill or injure another, or damage the malls, are uninallable. ADDRESSES MUST BE LEGIBLE. In typewriting or Ink Copies of sales slips of retail stores should not be used as address labels The complete address should also be shown on a sheet of paper inside - the parcel in order to permit Iden- 1 tiflcatlon of the addressee In the event the outer wrapper becomes torn, mutilated, or destroyed In transit.
