Perfect Yule Caid Described By Postmaster ' ' ? * Postmaster W.. E. Blakely has some special ideas about how Christmas can be made merrier. In fact, he's planning to semi the perfect Christmas card! Naturally, the Postmaster hop es the rest of us will follow his example, because' actually It's the only way a Christmas card should be sent, "Once this card was selected,*' he began, "I'd make surest was ?delivered <o the right address, and In plenty of time." Time, it seems, is the keynote to his plan. For each year the Post Office receives thousands of Christmas cards too late for de livery by December 25. And ma ny a Christmas package has suf fered the same fate. What 'to do about it? ? Well, here's the Postmaster's answer: 'This perfect Christmas -card of mine would be mailed before December 15, if it was going out side this state. Or at least a week before Christmas if to a local address. "I'd send it by first-class mail, because you get .better postal service for only a ? penny more. Put a three-cent stamp on your Christmas card envelopes, and they will be dispatched and de livered first. Also they will be forwarded or returned if neces sary. "What's more, you can ' write a personal message on them, which isn't authorized for third class maiL Just a little more makes your Christmas cards a lot more exciting to receive." Christmas card etiquette is equally important, the Postmas ter explains. He points out that the trend is to be as informal as possible. So sigrt your Christmas cards like this: BOB . . . ALICE ... or ALICE AND BOB, if married. The names-of children, or even "Tab by" the cat, may be included? since Christmas is truly a family, affair. "Mr, and Mrs." may be and Is used, but mainly for formal or business acqquaintances. However, personalized Christmas cards (on which the signature is imprinted) frequently use "Mr. and Mrs." Postmaster Blakely emphasizes that you should address the en velopes in your vgry hest hand writing., A carefully addressed envelope is helpful to the mail man, and a welcome sight to your friends. So be sure to in clude the full name, house num ber, street, city, zone, state, and return address in. upper left hand corner of the envelope. . If all of us follow through on the Postmaster's plan for a "per WITH MILITARY POLICE ? Ja cob Metcalf, above, is serving with the Military Police Corps, stationed at Camp Gordon, Ca.
