Two-cent stamps take mail at ad vertising circular treatment, with only one attempt at delivery be fore the "dead letter office." The postoffice also urged use of return addresses on envelopes. The practice is .approved by eti quette authorities because it helps friends keep their lists up to date and assures return of cards if not deliverable. Since directory service has been discontinued, letters must carry full addresses or they will not be delivered. " If you're still wrapping gift parcels, the postmaster observed, you- should send them special handling or by air parcel post to be sure of beating Santa. 1 Christmas cards for out-of-state delivery should be on their way by i this Friday and local cards by i Monday. v Postal workers will be grateful ; if you'll tie your cards in bund with all envelopes facing th esame i way and the stamps in the eame ; corner. Clear, accurate, and complete addresses will save your Christ mas cards time-consuming detours. "And if your handwriting isn't completely legible, please print,' i the postmaster added. "Many l cards must be, delivered by tern porary employees who lack a vet eran mail carrier's patient skill in i puzzling out uncertain abbrevia tions and penmanship."
