Ju 'Hi ocnl cW rent ror re re uunri 1'b I PLANNING TO EASE iT I,nnl,.venr. throuRh the Kpneroua co opcrntion of tlm prens the movies niul other (lvrti(ti!JK inrdiunm, ClirUtiuaB iiiBilort wore imlmrcl to dispatch tlieir VulPtUk- prrm-iils pnrlier in the month than ever biforp iu the hmtory of the institution of gift cxrlumging in the holiday fphpoii, As h row nit. Hie upei'tncle of the lost iniuute ru.h of former yenrg. with its attcruliint hcnrtlireakinB lnbor on the iart of weaied nnd nerve worn store olrks nnu postal employes, was avoided. This year Postmaster General New and Fir at Annlstnnt XNtstmaster jen enil John H. ISartli'tt have determiii- id to make, an even better record and to baoiidi for all lime the suffering undergone in past yearB by those en gaged iu the Hale or transportation of .gifts. They hope to make 'ihop Early" und "Mull Early" uabit vito the American people. Mailing early does not mean Dc cember 1 or before, but if everyone could get their holiday tokens in the mail between December 10 and De- ! cember 20, the postoffioe could not fltk more. - l'flrtit'ulur attention this year will be paid to greeting cards. Despite the Buccess last year it was no tea tuat tne lust-minute mail consisted largely of cards. 1'oasibly many of them were returned greeting to friendB, heard from ou a previous mail, but over looked on the origmul Christmas list. Unlike parcels and letters containing money orders, cards, of course, can not well be marked Do ssot Upen Until Christmas." Therefore, it 1b possible that the many mailers hold them until the lust to insure delivery on Christmas Eve. This class of mail ers this year, however, may find their i cards undelivered until after Chrjst- i mas Day. j Believing that the energies of post ' al employes should not be sapped to ' the last degree for any avoidable rea son, and, intent upon securing for them the BHine Christmas privileges enjoyed by others, Postmaster Gen eral New fasks the hearty cooperation of the public The last-minute, or : fcero hour has been moved up so that ; all postal employes may cat their Christmas dinners at home. Itural carriers will deliver no moil at alt on J Christmas day and clerks nnd car- riers in the city offices will stop work .'I promptly at noon. Auto cninp sanitation In Oregon and steps that are being taken by the Eugene chamber of commerce to fur ther, this end aro topics of ttie month ly news letter of the chamber for the past mouth which is being distributed iu the membeiship "A recent auto camp survey of Oregou made by the stale chamber of L'oiiuuerco shows that nearly 100,000 cars, carrying a half a million people und leaving in our jalu over a in II ; lion dollars, have stopped during the season over night or longer in our lo cal camp grounds and camping places throughout the state," the letter states. "Oregon's tourist crop is a cash crop and a rapidly growing asset to the state. Not only la this true in the money our tourists leave behind but immeasurably more in tho "by-word-of-mouih" publicity ' they give our various communities and state which impressions, if favorable, meau the bringing of new industries and homo builders to Oregon. It therefore behooves us citizens of Oregon to give timely, careful aud thoughtful attention not only to satisfactory conditions for their comfort nnd rec reation but alRo to their general good health. "Tho Eugene chamber of commerce has made some investigations along the line of sanitation aud fiuds that many camp grounds and cumping places are wholly iuadetpiato and un satisfactory in this respect. The board of directors has thcrcforo nppoiuted a committee to make further inves tigations and report back to the cham ber of .commerce with the hope that before another season the cities and communities of Oregon may unite in effecting legislation which will assure our tourists and homo pcoplo as well proper safety and protection in this matter of camp ground sanitation," the report states.
