PARCELS FOR PRISONERS OF WAR IN GFJRfV'IANY MUST BE VERY STRONGLY WRAPPED UP The Post Office Department has been notified by the British Post Of- fice that many parcels sent from Can ada to prisoners of war in Germany are being received in London in• a damaged condition. so that frequent - ay they have to be re -packed before they can be forwarded to Holland for transmission to Germany. The. British Post Office adds that in most cases the damage appears to be due to the fan that they were inade- quately packed by the senders. The public are warned therefore, that parcels for prisoners of war un- less they are very strongly packed will probably arrive in such a con- dition as to be little or no use'to the recipients. Ordinary thin card board boxes sufch as shoe boxes and thin, wooden boxes should not ibe used; nor does a single sheet of ordinary brown paper afford sufficient protection. Even where proper materials are used, it is important that the contents . be tightly' packed so as not, to shake about during transit. The following forms of packing are recommended- 1 Strong double • card board or strawboard boxes. Those made of •cor- ru,gated cardboard and having lids which completely enclose the sides of'. the box are most suitable. 2 Tin •boxes such as are ulsed for packing biscuits. 3 Strong wooden boxes. 4 Several folds of stout packi'n,g paper, The 'British authorities advise that parcels for prisoners of war in, Ger- many must not be wrapped in linen, .calico, canvas or any other textile article. 0 Parcels posted in Canada for pries- .overs of war in Germany which have' not been inadequately peeked by the senders will not be forwarded but 'will be returned to ,the - tenders. -as the !British Post' Office hes notified the Departteent that parcels Inade- quately nade-quately.peeked must be returned to the sendea's. . .... e .
