PAGE SEVEN IMPETUOUS ONES LEARN LETTERS HARDJORECALL Post Office Department Has Special System for Peo ple Who Mail Letters and Then Want 'Em Back Bt EDDIE G1LMORB (Associated Prea staff Writer.) WASHINGTON, Oct. a. ff) The pefttofflce department revealed today It haa a ayetem for handling lmpetti oua people who mall letters and then regret It. "Remorseful wives," said Prank Zllla. assistant superintendent of pott office service, "are always wanting their letters back, but they .don't get them without going through a set procedure." Under no circumstances la the car rter allowed to return the letter even If a fair lady weeps, pleada and falls In a faint at the mall-box. Must Ciu to P. O, "She can't even see It." explained Xllls, "unless sh,e comes down to the postofflce." k Even then she has to look up the postmaster, request an application blank and think up a pretty good reason for the change of heart. Dilly-dallying Is fatal, for after the letter Is mailed each minute sees tha postofflce machinery apeed It to wards Its destination. "We won't even admit we've got the letter," said Ellis, "until 13 ques tions hsve been answered satisfac torily." The questions mostly concern Iden tification of the letter. The appli cant has to say where It was mailed, the date and hour, the amount of postage, whose name Is on the out side and even a description of the envelope. Must Give Reason. "You Just can't say It' a purple envelope,' explained the official "You've got to say "purple envelope, square and heavy paper.'" The real atlcker among the 13 ques tions, however, Is "reason for hold ing." This means that If a wife waa angry when she penned the letter and then cooled off, she'd better ssy to. Wives are not the only remorseful setter-senders. Sometimes lt'a the husband. Experience has ahovm, though, that rather than go through the routine, men sa, 'Oh, well, I'll explain to her later." SNOW FLAKE RECIPES Snow Flake and Oysters Are Affinities In This Dish. The months with the R'a are here. which means Scalloped Oysters.
