Parcel Post Gain 300 Per Cent.

Postmaster Springsteen announced Wednesday that the parcel post business in Indianapolis had increased more than 300 per cent in the past year. The report also shows that the parcel post business has increased more than 55 per cent compared with the 1914 revenues. One of the most notable items of increase was in the number of packages mailed at the Indianapolis postoffice. Many of the small stores are depending entirely upon the parcel post for delivery.
