TONS OF PARCEL POST CHRISTMAS MAIL PILED UP Extra Force of Men Working Overtime to Get Packages Out IS HANDLED QUICKLY Two Three-Ton Trucks and Six Wagons on the Go Day and Night Just for fun, suppose you Imagine yourself in the busy departments of the Harrlsburg Post Office, charged with (lie responsibility of playing Santa Claus to thousands and thou sands of residents of this and other cities. You will be surprised and de lighted with the business-like dis patch and efficiency with which the nrail and parcel post matter is dis tributed. An extra force of eleven substitute carriers and sixteen substitute clerks are helping lo keep things humming, and in addition the regular force is working overtime, willingly, but of course they are being paid extra wages. It is the busiest season the Post Office in this city has ever ex perienced and no complaints are be ing received as to the quickness and dispatch with which mail is delivered. Charles H. Hoffman, superintend ent. of mails and Postmaster Frank C. Sites are celebrating their birthdays to-day and to-morrow respectively and incidentally are making records for themselves in their excellent man agement and supervision of the rush period of deliveries. Mr. Hoffman was well remembered to-day with a wonderful bouquet of the season's most attractive flowers, presented by the choir of Stevens' Memorial church. Tons of Parcel Post Two three-ton« trucks, manned by three men, beside the driver, and six wagons are engaged day and night delivering parcel post packages to every nook and corner of the city, and never has there been such an enormous rush. The extra post office branch in the- Donaldson apartments In Second street is handling all par cel post matter and is in charge of 11. IS. Speas, assistant superintendent of mails. From 5 o'clock Monday evening to this morning about 10:30, twelve hundred sacks of parcels have been transmitted to other cities and be tween eleven o'clock last night and seven this morning, approximately HfiOO packages were received at that office for delivery in the city. Piled Celling High Ten wagonloads and two trucks full of last night's overflow, had been sent to different parts of the ctty by 10:30 this morning. At the special rush hour, between seven and nine in the evening, the parcels are plied ceiling high, separated .into districts by wide stalls especially constructed for that purpose. An innovation in the de partment was inaugurated last eve ning when an eight o'clock delivery conveniently met the demands of the business houses, which were the only ones included in the delivery. Christmas morning there will be a regular morning delivery and at two o'clock in the afternoon all the par cel post matter that has been left over through physical impossibility to have it delivered beforehand, will be taken to its destination so that npt a single present may be received later than Christmas Day.
