Jasper County Democrat, Volume 14, Number 22, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 5 July 1911 — USE PRINTED ENVELOPES [ARTICLE]

USE PRINTED ENVELOPES

Everyone should use envelopes with their return card printed thereon, so that in case of their forgetting to stamp the envolope or write the full address the tetter will be returned to them. An example of suoh forgetfullness may be seen in the postoffice lobby, where a plain envelope has been posted for the past few days marked “held for better address.”

It is neatly and plainly addressed “Clerk of the Land Commissioner’s Office of Old Christ Church, Frederickton, Calvert C 0.,” but no state or foreign country is given. The writer will no doubt blame the postal department for the “loss” of this letter, ” which is “lost” simply by his or her carelessness. Had a return card been printed on the envelope the postmaster could have called the writer’s attention to the faulty address and the letter would have gone on its way days ago. And this is but one of scores of similar cases, too. The Democrat will furnish the envelopes and print your return card in a neat and .attractive manner on same for only 50 cents for 100; one dollar for 250, and larger quantities at proportionate prices. You can’t afford to use plain envelopes when you can get printed ones at these prices.
