Long and wigorous publicity, ex-
tending through several administra-
tions by’ both parties, has finally
broken the back of the Christmas
mail rush and extended it for a
long period before the holiday which
is all to the good. With my father
acting as a rural carrier for ten
years, he and my sister in the post-
office for longer than a decade, and
personally handling mail there and
on the railroad for many years, the
Christmas ‘mail rush was a fact of
life for our family for over thirty
years. And the general public plenty
of times does not make life easier
for the mail people ply time of the
year.
Most striking re that I
recall was two or three days before
Christmas when a Franklin Street
woman came up to the window,
asked if cards were still two cents,
and threw down a two dollar bill
for a hundred stamps. When the
sheet of stamps was placed in front
of her she shoved in a big bundle
of cards and said, “Here is a hund-
red cards. You lick’em” and
hastily walked away. And my sis-
ter did.
Then there was a woman who
came in about 4:30 p.m. on the day
before Christmas mailing packages
to Tennessee and Florida to be
opened on Christmas morning”
In the early days of parcel post,
which was begun while my father
was a rural carrier to his great
exasperation, there were heated
arguments right along about weight
and size limitations. Knowing that
the carriers carried no scales and
had no time to get out and meas-
It was as great a shock to find a round
beaver, as it is nowadays to find cowboys who break every rule of

at least one dog that came through
many years later.
About the same time there was
put into use a system under which
a patron could mail a letter to}
another patron on the route to be
delivered on the same trip. One
day my father picked up a letter
addressed, “Mrs. R. Brown, route
3”. He yelled to the woman who
mailed it and she answered him,
back and forth several times. Fin-
ally she came out and he said,
“I do not have any Mrs. R. Brown”.
She said, “Yes you do. That's Rilly
Brown.” Still confused he went over
all his Brown families with her,
there were not many, and finally
turned up one where the woman
had a first name of ‘Marilla”.
Getting back to Christmas, we
used to have stacks of the largest
size mail sacks filled with packages,
standing around like big hay stacks
at the railroad station. We had to
run extra baggage cars to. carry
them, which were sorted out by
destinations, such places as Buffalo
and beyond sometimes requiring
more than a full carload. In the
traveling postoffices on the trains
the Railway Mail Clerks would
handle mostly the first class mail,
newspapers, and ordinary circulars,
magazines, etc., together with sacks
of smaller parcels which had to be
sorted enroute They had extra men

working, Jz experienced men, some-

as at other times of year. The P.O.
ted bo had a regular schedule
of locked pouches for first class mail
for various destinations and con-
necting trains which had to be
called off as they were received
in the car. Registered mail had to be
signed for. The Department had a
full-time mail clerk on duty at the |.
terminal to supervise routings and |
get signatures where required.
The system of having the mailers |
sort their own mail and send it in |
bundles for out of town and local |
delivery should be a big help. How=
ever in the present season we saw a
woman standing at the head of a
line in the office with a big handful
of cards, carefully licking and ap-
plying the stamps one by one, and
then putting each letter in the ap-
propriate slot, one by one, others
waiting behind her.
