poured in so liberally,
the group decided it would be

Thanksgiving Day
Program Proposed
By Observance Group
The United Freeport Observance
Committee has suggested the fol-lowing
ideas for the observance of
Thanksgiving Day:
WHEREAS The early Pilgrims
who settled .our blessed country
were men and women of profound
religious convictions.
WHEREAS On the occasion of
their first harvest they set aside
a special day on which to give
thanks to Almighty God for his
bounty and for their deliverance.
WHEREAS Thanksgiving Day.
our oldest National holiday, has
come to be revered and observed
by all succeeding generations of
American citizens.
WHEREAS Thanksgiving Day.
1947, finds us and the world at
peace and we in this country
blessed above all other peoples of
the earth.
NOW THEREFORE Wo. the Ex-ecutive
Committee of the U nited
Freeport .Observance Committee, do
hereby humbly suggest to our fel-low-
citizens of the Village of Free-port
a program that is certain to
bring them a fuller realization of
the greater Joy that is obtainable
from observing Thanksgiving Day

Assistant District Attorney Frank
A. Gulotta spoke on the crime
problem, after being introduced by
Commander McCloskey. He said
1,800,000 major crimes were com-mitted
in the United States last
year; that one such crime is com-mitted
every 20 seconds, and thai
there- is one cold-blooded murder
every 20 minutes.
He gave three things which in
his opinion he said were responsible
for juvenile delinquency. The flrst
was the present idea of progressive
education under which parents fail
to punish their children when they
do wrong; insistence of parents on

i"Each year we have to destroy
a .large number of beautiful Christ-mas
.cards because- they are incor-rectly
addressed and carry only
tnird-classrpostage," the Postmaster
said. "We are sorry to do it, be-cause
we know^ each of these cards
is, •• intended to convey Christmas
wishes to a special Iriend, who will
Nbe diskppointe&-and puzzled at not
receiving a card."
•Postal regulations, of course, are
the explanation.- They do not res-quire
that more than one effort
b^ made to .deliver third-class mail
because it is being carried at a
lo^er .postal rate. So if the ad-dress
is wrong and there's only a
l»i-cent stamp on the envelope,
your -caret ully - selected .Christmas
card is carted back to the Post
Office and dumped unceremoniously
into "the dea4»Jettw bins.
Undelivered third-class mail is
not 'returned to the sender, so one
never knows when Christmas cards
go askew—and whether that's the
rtason Aunt Lilly suddenly stopped
writing after last Christmas.
The Postmaster pointed out that
only first-class mail may be for-wardedxfrom
one addrtss to an-other.
Cards bearing a 3-cent
stamp are also entitled to "direc-tory
service," which means that
skilled post office clerks will seek
to trace down addressees who have
moved since you made out- your
Christmas card list last year. These
clerks also try to figure out whether
you mean "Elm Street" when you
addressed a card to a non-existent
number on "Oak Avenue," and they
are experts at deciphering obscured
or almost-illegible handwriting.
The Postmaster asked that all
Christmas cards and packages for
out-of-state delivery be in the
malls by Dec. 10, and that local
cards be. mailed by Dec. 15.
