Ordinary parcels post service is about 

 the slowest of all mail service. 



Use Special Delivery. 



Now let us consider the special deliv- 

 ery parcels post, which is the service 

 employed by Rosemont Gardens. This 

 is the way to send all cut flowers, for 

 quick service. Every box that goes out 

 of this place by parcels post has a spe- 

 cial delivery stamp on it. With this 

 stamp on the box it receives the same 

 treatment and handling that a first-class 

 letter would get. In other words, the 

 special delivery stamp makes a first-class 

 package out of fourth-class matter. A 

 package which is mailed at the post- 

 office is sent on the first trip to the depot 

 and makes the first train out. There is 

 absolutely no delay. 



The delivery of express packages is 

 limited to a prescribed zone in each city, 

 although in some small places there is no 

 delivery at all. Parcels post special de- 

 livery packages are delivered to a much 

 wider zone in cities having carrier serv- 

 ice, and in smaller places, where there is
