There were reports that the Finnish delegation, headed by Pre- mier Risib Rytl, already had left for home by way of Stockholm with the Soviet peace proposals, but as hours passed and the Finns failed to appear here Swedes con- cluded the talks at the Kremlin were continuing.

Pelsonn shipping food parcels overseas would be well advised w hear what the post office has to say before sending another gift to so‘.- diers across the Atlanilc. Already, thanks to bad packir, food is rol- ting 1n the Montreal post office that was supposed to go overseas. It cannot be shipped any further. A large number of soldiers will be getting letters soon telling them about parcels coming and will won- der why they nevre arrive. The post office knows the reason. Till‘ oi- ficials have given the following useful information: PROPER PACKING First. a little advice is sent out a communication from the Ad- ministrative services of the Post Office. It states: "The need for [ITODOT packing CBIIIIOL I00 strongly emphasized. Ffilmsy car.- board boxes and thin tissue are entirely inadequate . strong con- tainers and thick wrapping paper are essential. The parcel should be firmly wrapped and weii bound with strong cord." SlliCe butler, coffee and bacon seem i0 be popular among senders. the following advice was given by Luodovic Germain. director of Postal Services in Montreal, to get some advice on the subject. Butter should be packed in com- plizince with the laws, and placed in lielmot-lcally sealed tin boxes. bearing a conspicuous mark indi- caving the nature cl the contents. Five pounds of butter should be the maximum. If this is going to friends in Engoiid or Scotland, the rate via parcel post is 24 cents for the first pound. and 18 cents for each successive pound. If the butter is for soldier. the rate is 12 cents flat per pound . The butter cannot be shipped by a butter firm or merchant and it cannot be sold; ft must be a gift. CUSTOMS DECLARATION All such parcels must be accom- panied by a Customs declaration, properly filled out and pasted out- s"‘" iii" package. (Form 91 B.)
