We must be mindful that these gifts must travel far, with shipping space crowded. If the gifts are to be protected in tran- sit they must be packed in boxes made of metal, wood, solid fiber- board, or strong double-faced cor- ragated fiberboard, reinforced with strong gummed paper tape or tied with strong twine. If both tape and strong twine are used, .so much the better. If the outer wrapper is crushed—and this is {likely to happen——the loss of con- ltents may be prevented if fiber- board boxes are wrapped in heavy paper. “We were unable to deliver lmany parcels which families and friends sent to men and women overseas last year because they were crushed in transit and the gift and the outside wrapper be- ,came separated. We would have been able to make delivery if the address had been shown on the in- ,side wrapper. We advise that ev- 'eryone write the address of the sender and addressee inside the packaage as well as outside. “Christmas gifts mean much to Tour people overseas. Because .strong twine, heavy paper and lboxes and fiberboard will prove of real help in making delivery gof gifts possible I urge those at [home to begin saving these ma- lterials now. As time goes on they are going to become even more ‘scarce than they are now.” The Red Cross has announced some “do’s and don’ts" for Christ- mas gifts to send to men and women overseas, Charles Savage, county chairman said yesterday. Don't send home cooked food for even fruit cake arrives molded or mashed beyond recognition; don’t send diaries unless request- ed; don't send leather goods to the Pacific theater for leather cannot take the tropical climate; don’t send gum or candy, unless vacuum packed in tins, to the tropics; and don't send anything you, yourself, wouldn’t want if you were traveling or camping. Suggested as gifts for men or women are, pocket size books, a waterproof w a. t c h, stationery, dark glasses, map of the United 'States, address book, sheet music, .pocket games, vacuum packed salted peanuts, canned delicacies, Christmas decorations, pocket size family pictures, folders for pic- tures and unbreakable mirrors. Possible gifts for women over- seas are, cosmetics, bedroom slip- line, coat hangers, handkerchiefs, flashlight, housecoat, bathing suit and cap, slips and panties, bobby pins, soap flakes, sewing kit, hose :or toilet kits. Logical gifts for men might be tobacco pouch, shower shoes, metal dogtag chain, har- monica or ocarina, pocket comb, playing cards, stationery, writing lfolio, fountain pen or cigarette llighter. “Mailing date for all packages is between September 15 and 0c- tober 15,” the chairman reminded friends and relatives. The entire over 15 inches in length or more than 36 inches in lenth and girth , combined. The total weight of the l package when ready to mail must over the Week end- not be over five pounds.

Butter Still 16 Points Per Pound Creamery butter will remain at 16 red points per pound when new point values for September go into effect next Sunday—de- spite the fact new food charts list 20 points. When charts went to the print- ers, it looked as though 20 points would be necessary but later con- sumption reports make the in- crease unnecessary, OPA said. Because the point charts al- ready have been printed, retail stores have been notified by OPA that a sticker with the figure ‘16’ should be pasted over the ‘20’ fig- ure on the point value charts op- posite the words “creamery but- ter.” SHELTON BAPTIST CHURCH J. 0.
