Christmas Card Was Invented By a Man With Many Friends A *rA*vtKM*'<tV4 I T ntil < * - * fcruTiin L «M IM /"’’HRISTMAS cards are almost as much a part of Christmas as Santa Claus himself, yet they have been in use less than a century. According to most records, the first Christmas card was designed in 1846 by Mr. J. C. Horsley, a prominent member of the Royal academy of London. It was pro duced at the request of Sir Henry Cole, a popular man with many friends. Sir Cole wondered how he could express his personal Christmas greeting to a thousand friends spread throughout England. After dismissing the thought of visiting each personally, or giving presents, he decided to send them each a card by mail. One thousand hand colored cards were prepared with a picture show ing a jolly family seated at a huge dinner table. Each member of the family was looking into a brimming glass which he held in his hand. When these cards were distribut ed. they raised a furor among tem perance proponents throughout the country. The disturbance focused nation-wide attention on the new greeting card. It was not until several years lat er, however, that the first litho graphed Christmas card made its appearance. Originality was almost completely lacking. The greeting was invariably “A Merry Christ mas” or “A Jolly Christmas.” De signs seldom had anything to do with the season,,but contained pic tures of birds, flowers, animals or children. America soon adopted the British sustom, and the Christmas card was born. Put Proper Postage On Christmas Mail Unsealed Christmas cards will carry for one and one-half cents postage. These cards may bear a simple inscription, which must not be in the nature of personal corre spondence. Examples: “Sincerely yours,” “With Best Wishes,” “Mer ry Christmas.” Be sure the weight of the card and cover does not ex ceed two ounces. Letters may not be enclosed with Christmas packages. Such enclo sure would make the package first class. In fourth class or parcel post packages, written greetings such as “Merry Christmas,” with identify ing names, may be enclosed. Books may bear simple non-personal dedi catory inscriptions. They are carried at a special rate of one and one-half cents per pound. ' SEASONS GREETINGS Averett Roofing and Heating Co. 315 E. 5TH ST.
