Conunemlng on the volume of mail and parcels handled at the Summersldo Post Office this year during the Christmas season. Of- ficials stated yesterday that never in the history of the local office

received and distributed»

It was estimated that more than half as much again as last year went through and last season was considered to be a peak year. The same condition existed in the Cus- toms Department where a trom- endous amount of mall from the USA. and other countries was re- celved.

In order to cope with the great- ly increased business the regular staff of twelve was increased to eighteen. Officials said that clue to restricted space in the office it would be useless to take “on more as there was very little room to work as it was.

The house to house delivery aer- vlce was maintained again this War which further aided the post- master to cope with the situation. Post Master Arthur Allen and As- sistant Post Master Charles Pei- ers said yesterday that it. would have been almost impossible to do the job had it not been for the splendid cooperation of the public. who by mailing early made it pos- sible to disposr- of the bulk of the local mail and thus enable the [st-riff to escape the usual overflow on the day mforc Christmas.

They stated that yesterday was the peak day of the week and that the volume would gradually taper of! until the end of the week-S.

Freetown And Vicinity

Mrs. Gerald Lockhart and son Blots of Malpeque, ivere visitors to Free-town last week at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Eld-on Drummond.

Mrs. Stanley Biggar and Master Lawson Biggar of Stanley Bridge, spent the week-end in FFGClOWTl with Mrs, Biggar‘: mother, Mrs. Samuel Drummond.

Mrs. Taylor. noc Margaret Walker, was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Walker of Freetown. Friends here extend deepest sympathy to Mr. Taylor and family in their sad ber- eavement. _

lllrs. Ralph R. Burns returned by plane on Monday evening from Gardiner. Maine where she visit- cd for the past three weeks. While ihcre she attended the fifty-fifth wedding anniversary celebration of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Scott. Mrs. Scott is the former Miss Char- lotte Burns of Freetown. and friends in Freetown and vicinity wish this worthy couple many happy returns of the day.

Despito almost impassable roads. the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jessa Bradshaw was the gathering place of many people in Lower Free- town on Wednesday evening Nov. 30. The occasion was a wolcome party for Mr. and Mrs. Walter Burns and son Robert who re- cently returned from Western Canada to settle in their native province after an absence of twen- ty-cight years. Mr. Allison Prof- fit. in his usual capable manner. acted as chairman. and with a few introductory remarks called on Mr. Lloyd Burns who read an address to the family. Afterwards on behalf of the people of the community Mr. .Wilfrcd Hamill presented Mr. and Mrs. Burn with a beautiful electric floor lamp and magazine table and a gold signet ring was presented to Robert by Mr. Walter Bernard.
