Thanksgiving
Poem
Were  you all alone Thanksgiving
Day Feeling more than blue Drinking juice and taking pdlls Fighting witth the flu?
Did you wonder if there was much You could be thankful for When  three Angels, bearing gifts Came tappii^ on your door?
A laden tray of steaming things All wrapped up in foil A bowl ot crispy salad tossed With roquefoPt, vinegar and oil
On a plate, agreat big piece Of lucious pumpkin pie Heaped witti real whipped cream At least three inches high
Did the Angels stay to chat a while And cheer you up no end So you could say at close of day I'm so thankful, God. for friends?

Postoffice Report
WILL TOUR CHRISTMAS BIAIL AVOID "HEARTBREAK HOTEL,"
The saddest place in the post oflice is "Heartbreak Hotel" the day aftea- Christtnas. 'Heartbreak Hot¬ el" is the residence of cards, letters and gifts that couldn't be delivered because of illegible addresses, no addresses at all or poorly packed parcels frwn which the address la¬ bel or outer wirappings were separ¬ ated.
Postnnaster ]^ ichard Michelsen today noted that million of such items unnessarily wind vsp in "Heartbreak Hotel", and give mail¬ ers advice on how to avoid such seasonal sorrow.
Always write or print addresses carefully and use ZIP Codes. If you have trouble reading the add¬ ress, the people at the post office will have the same problem.
Use of first class postage on greeting cards will make sure your mail is forwairded if the receipent has moved. Mail will be returned to you if it is poorly addressed or there fe no forwarding address. This is one reason for using the spedai five cent Christmas stamp. Cards sent by third class mail (4c unsealed) which cannot be deliv¬ ered wind up in the dead lett^ oflice, one of the Inisiest comers of "Heartbreak Hotel".
Wrap your packages neatly and well. A loose piece of wrapping may get caught and ripped. Pad your gifts securly so there is no rattling and there is sofficient sup-" port for other packages. The sack carrii^ your glass cup may also l»ve two or three bowling balls riding on top of it
A card or piece of paper inside the package caning yoir name and address and that of the person to whom the parcel is addressed wiB insure delivery in case the wrapp ing ctHnes loose. A list of the con¬ tents will help postal "rewrap" clerks in the event yoor package is poorly wrapped and bonrts.
