Among the sug- gestions are that the parcels be welghed, as they cannot be forwarded unless fhe proper amount of postage has been affixed. Every parcel should be securely ped and plainly ad- dressed. It is also a very good pre- caution to have the name of the send- er plainly marked on the outside, for in case of failure of delivery at the point of destination the package will be returned and loss avoided. As is being urged all over the country, packages should be sent as early as possible to avoid the rush of mall that will occur just before the holiday, READING ROOM To Be Opened on Sunday from 3 to 6 P.

The “gold” tags are to be sold as a sort of a special souvenir of the creating of the monument fund and are expected to command good prices, as the sup- ply is limited. Putnam has no public memorial of the soldier dead such as it s proposed to erect, and it ls expected that the sale of tags will be widespread and bring generous prices. A large num- ber will be out selling the tage om Saturday and the people of the sur rounding country as well as the citi- zens of Putnam will be invited to help along the worthy project.
