Deadline Nearing
For Overseas Mail
St. Nick will wear muddy boots
and a steel helmet during much
of his lengthy yule visit this year.
Donner and Blitzen may even get
an assist from a half-track in the
far ends of the earth where gifts
are most appreciated.
Next to kids, service men over
geas benefit most from Christmas
packages. And the deadline for
mailing to some foreign points is
rapidly approaching.
Not Over 100 Inches
Packages for men in Korea,
Japan or the islands of the Pa
cific should be posted by Nov. 1,
tor timely arrival. Mail for other
overseas areas can be mailed as
late as Nov. 15, but the sooner,
the better.

May Crouch
May Crouch, 720 Chesnut Ave.,
Cottage Grove, died at Cottage
Grove Hospital Friday, Oct. 19,
1951, at the age of 72. She was

limits. No package can be more
than 100 inches length and girth
combined.
The possibility of spoilage or
handling damage poses a problem
in sending goodies abroad. Candy
and cookies are probably the besti
risk. The best way to pack thenr
is in a large can sealed with tape.
LaKe or novelty breads can be
packaged quite well by taking
them to one of the many custom
canneries in the area. This is also
a good way to send many of the
more perishable items. Its cheap
and simple.
Food Is Favorite
Cheeses almost take care of
themselves. All sorts of canned
delicacies such as pickles, olives,
fancy fish or other meat prepara
tions, are easily packaged. If items
canned in jars are sent, packaging
should be exceptionally sturdy,
Other durable items popular
with servicemen are sausages and
other cured meats, canned fruit
and packaged or canned nuts.
Although food is the favorite,
some space might be given such
gifts as cameras, electric razors,
film and hobby items, depending
on the desires of the individual
and the practicability of those
items In his area. I
Currency Unwise
Prohibited are inflammable
items including matches and light
er fluid. Liquors, of course, are
not mailable by law. Cigarettes
and other tobaccos are not ad'
missable into many European and
Mediterranean areas. It is unwise
to mail currency and it is not legal
to send it to areas where the
American dollar is not the medium
of exchange. The post office sug
gests money orders.
Recommended as packaging
materials are metal, wood, solid
fibreboard or strong, double faced
corrugated fibreboard, in that
order of preference. Boxes should
be tied with a number of separate
strands of strong cord, and they
should contain ample cushioning

ONE OF THE SLICKEST CHICKS in the Marlboro, Md.,
fair is held by Wayne Morse, Oregon's junior senator. The
chicken is one of the 25 birds which Morse's daughters,
Amy and Judy, showed in the fair, copping 24 prizes 11
firsts, nine seconds, two thirds, and two fifths. While none
of the Morse family has ever been kicked in the jaw by a
chicken, the senator wrote that showing chickens was not
a replacement for the family hobby of showing horses.
They will continue to show horses, he said.

Hearing Reveals
Highway Plans
(Continued jram Page One)
highway commission estimates the
benefit of the new road to be
about four times as much as the
old, considering fuel and time
saved, and cost for the freeway,
Fuel saving in dollars per year
is estimated at $37,175 for the
freeway, or $19,084 for an im
proved old highway. Non-fuel
benefits (time saved) are estimat
ed at $176,476 for the proposed
by-pass, $48,117 for the old high
way if improved. .
Although Sutherlin citizens had
little complaint with the project,
they did make six proposals which
they want adopted before they are
entirely satisfied. The fiist, that
the freeway oe made an overpass
over Highway 225 had already
Deen planned Dy tne commission.
Likewise with the second and
third proposals that. one. four
roads like the new "99" with High
way 225, and two, signing and
lighting on the new 99 be of high
est state standards, and a divided
highway at the access be con
structed. Another proposal, that
me present i-acilic Highway con
tinue to be maintained for inter
community traffic between Oak
land and Sutherlin, also had been
planned by the commission.
The two remaining Sutherlin
suggestions, that a jog in Highway
225 at the city limits be removed
and this road be leveled and wid
ened, and that adequate means of
access be given residents south
and west of the new relocation,
had not been planned but will be
considered, the commission said.
These proposals would give
Sutherlin a "reasonable opportun
ity for future growth insofar as
highway communication is con
cerned," the Sutherlin committee
declared. They will offer no ob
jection to the new road if "ade
quate and careful consideration"
is given these proposals, they said.
Though Oakland will also be
by-passed by the proposed route,
the local committee there had no
objections to the project. In fact,
many agreed that the by-pass was
badly needed and business would
not suffer. The Sutherlin people
have expressed the fear that bus
iness there might suffer somewhat
because of the re-routing of traffic
over a relocated highway. How
ever, no estimate of the possible
loss of business was made.
