AS DATE LOOMS Tlip sending out of Christinas presents from the Medford postof fioo was quite brink today for tho first time, since the sending period started lust week, and at times there were waiting lines in tho lobby. Of course tho majority of parcels sent out Saturday ami to day were for eastern und middle west addresses. For those sections of the nation Christmas parcels may be sent out for several days yet with reason able assurance that they will be delivered by Christinas day. Bo heavy had grown the Christ mas mailing business over the eek end that today two of tho selected Inexperienced men who will be put to work nt the local postofflce during tho Christmas rush period, were put to work to aid the regular staff of employes. Tho others will be added as fust as business warrants, in way of giving employment to needy heads or supporters of families. From now on the Christmas mail sending from Medford is ex pected to increase dully until a few days before Christmas. The send ing of parcels to California and Washington and other adjoining states is expected to begin increas ing in volume Wednesday, nnd tho rush of sending parcels to Oregon points is expected to start by Fri day or Saturday. The public is again warned that, to make allowanco for so much Inexperienced help being used in tho postofficc service thruout the nation during this period in order to relievo unemployment, and to guard against storms, all senders of parcels from Medford to points of any distance should allow a day or two leeway over the regular time. The express company also re ports a constantly increasing busi ness in sending Christmas parcels out from Medford by that method of transportation.
