,. Your" Christmas Shopping
As a war conservation the Government
desires curry one to distribute his holiday
shopping through the months of October,
November and December. Patriotic men
and women, who are alert as to the prevail-
_ f ing conditions will act ’in accordance with the
‘ wishes of the Government.
Uncle Sam says, that he desires the
Christmas business‘ done with the least
possible strain upon transportation, and with
- the-least.possible disturbance ot labor con-
3 why that the stores shall not be obliged to
increase their working force through Decem-
ber. He wants all packages sent by mail
todie £11111)de before December fifth. He
, wants shoppers to carry packages them-
selves, whenever and wherever it is possible
for them to do so.
It is natural iot- cvcryouc to desire usc~
fol and appropriate gifts this year. In that
way there‘will not be undue extravagance.
Of course the children are to have what they
ought to have, dolls and playthings, books
and games,
If every one complies with these wishes,
there will not be the eleventh hour rush,
when every one is exhaustedfinentally and
physically. The Christmas spirit which is
needed so much this year will go just a's far
. under these regulations as it would in nor-
mal times-and perhaps farther.
