RECEIVE POST CARD
AFTER EIGHT YEARS
From Wednesday's New Era:
The New Era received a post-
card in the mail this morning
bearing the date line of Tekniske
Skole, Horten, Norway, June 10,
1918.
The communication, which is
signed by T. R. Petersen, formerly
of Mount Joy, reads as follows:
“Dear Sir:—As the mail service to
America is very uncertain on ac-
count of the war, I am sending a
greeting to my friends in Lancas-
ter county via the Pole.”
Eight years have elapsed since
the card left the Artic regions un-
til it reached its destination at the
New Era office.
The card bears a Norwegian
stamp and in four different lang-
uages, also bears the following:
“This card will be carried by the
‘Maud’ across the Polar Sea, and
afterwards conveyed by post to
| the addressee.”
On the opposite side of card is
the print of a man dressed in furs
and on skiis with an Eskimo dog.
The background of the picture is
a scene of the frozen sea with a
ship anchored among the moun-
tains of ice.
