METHOD OF PARCEL POST. 
SoME PRELIMINARY SUGGESTIONS ON 
Tue Use or Toe New System To 
Bre INAUGURATED ON JAN. I, 1913. 
On Jan. 1, 1913, the new parcel 
post service will be inaugurated 
thoughout the United States. The 
limit of packages of merchandise will 
be increased from four pounds to 
eleven pounds and the rates will be 
determined from a scale and a map 
which divides the country into eight 
zones. ‘The limit of size will be the 
measurement of seventy two inches, 
length and girth combined. 
The ways and means of the new 
system, to be installed so soon after 
its authorization by Congress, are 
taxing the Post Office Department to 
its utmost but in a short time all post 
offices will be in possession of a com- 
plete set of rules governing its opera- 
tion. The preliminary instruction

for the guidance of the public which 
all postmasters are urged to give the 
widest publicity possible, are that a 
distinctive parcel post stamp must be 
used on all fourth-class mail matter 
beginning Jan. 1, 1913, and that such 
matter having ordinary stamps will not 
be sent, but will be treated as “Held 
for Postage.” Also, all parcels must 
bear the name and address of the 
sender; otherwise they will not be ac- 
cepted for mailing. Local conditions 
and the volume of the business will 
determine the precise manner of hand- 
ling after a period of observation has 
determined just what means are re- 
quired. 
At the local office packages for 
mailing will be received as heretofore 
at the stamp window and information 
governing the new service will be 
cheerfully given as soon as received. 
Breeze subscription, $2 a ‘year. 
BEVERLY FARMS 
For some reason or other we know 
not why, the bundles containing the 
Breezes for our Beverly Farms and 
Pride’s subscribers, did not reach 
their destination last Friday night. 
Not until Sunday were we aware of 
this fact, and a new set of papers 
were addressed to these places. We 
regret that our readers did not get 
their papers until Monday forenoon. 
As the schools at the Farms are 
closed over the Thanksgiving holiday, 
most of the teachers are visiting out 
of town. 
Mr. and Mrs. Howard E. Morgan 
and Howard EK. Morgan, Jr., spent 
Thanksgiving Day at Manchester 
with Mr. and Mrs. Nathaniel Morgan, 
Mr. Morgan’s parents. - 
Postmaster and Mrs. William R. 
Brooks had the Daniel W. Prestons 
as their guests for Thanksgiving din- 
ner. 
The fight to keep the Farms’ no-li- 
cense is already on. Robert H. May- 
wood, secretary of the Massachusetts 
No-License League, will speak at the 
Farms Baptist church, Sunday even- 
ing, Dec. 8th. Mr. Maywood is prob- 
ably the best informed no-license 
worker in the state and his talk will 
undoubtedly be forceful and informa- 
tive. 
Michael O’Connor is again able to 
appear out-of-doors, after his long 
illness. For some time past he has 
been under treatment at the Beverly 
Hospital. This week his friends were 
delighted and encouraged to hear that 
he had been able to come home and 
were more than pleased to see him 
out-of-doors. 
Rep. Herman A. McDonald, of 
Ward 6, candidate for Mayor, an- 
nounces a rally to be held in Beverly 
City hall on Saturday evening, Dec. 
7th, just preceding the city election. 
His campaign committee reports that 
Mr. McDonald’s candidacy is gaining 
wide attention throughout the city and 
predicts that he will poll a big vote. 
At the Salem-Bever.y High school 
fuot-bail ga're esterday, Beveily 
Farms was represented by a large 
crowd of enthusiastic “cheerers” for 
the Orange and Black. ‘The music of 
the two bands and the excellent play- 
ing of the Beverly team made an en- 
tertaining holiday forenoon. Beverly 
won with a score of 54 to 0. Tom 
Brady, the Farms member of the 
winning team is justly proud of the 
fact that at this game he won his “B.” 
Mr. and Mrs. Marshall T. Larcom 
helped to make up a family gathering 
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Horace 
Standley at Manchester yesterday.
