wherebY the Christmas mail to the I
American Expeditionary Forces in
Europe is to he delivered by Christ-
mas morning. Without the fullest co-
operation on the part of the pUbliC'I'
it will be impossible to accomplish
this result.
The three essential respects in
which the public can aid in assuring
a happy Christmas at the front are:
Mail early. address intelligently. and
pack securely. For this reason It is
urgently requested that all persons
having Christmas mail for the soldiers
and sailors and the civilian units at-
tached to the army in Europe, observe
closely the following directions:
1. Mails to reach the soldiers In
France by Christmas morning must be
p'osted not later than November 15.
2. Every package must bear con-
spicuously the words "Christmas
Mail," the complete address of the per-
I son for whom it is intended, and, in
the upper lefthand corner, the name
II an3d address of the sender.
Every parcel must be so packed
and wrapped as to admit easy inspec-
tion by the postmaster. No parcel
will be dispatched to France which
has n'Ot the postmaster's certificate
that it contains no prohibited articles.
A. S. Bnrleson,
Postmaster General.

Secretary of War.

'l'WO·CENT POSTAL CARDS AND
TIIREE·CENT STUlPS AND
STA)lPEH ENVELOPES
Under the Act of Congress ap-
proved October 3, 1917, changing the
rates of postage, the department will
begin issuing two-cent postal cards
and three-cent postage stamps and
stamped envelopes as s'Oon as a sup-
ply can he manufactured, It will not
be possible, however, to provide them
in sufficient quantities to exchange
stamps or one-cent postal cards, two-
cent stamps or two-cent envelopes
held by the publi-c or by piOstmasters.
It will, therefore, he necessary, begin-
ning November 2d, 1917, when the new
postage rates become effective tor
postmasters to continue the sale of
one-cent post cards and two-cent en-
velopes while their stock lasts and ~r
the public to affix additional stamps
to envelopes and cards to the amount
of increase of postage.
