MUSIC APPRECIATION
GROUP TO BE FORMED
An invitation is extended to
residents of Palmer and the Val
ley who are interested in good
music to attend an organizational
and business meeting of a Music

has been arranged for the evening
with Martha Collier furnishing
recordings of Beethoven’s Ninth

The decision to organize the
Music Appreciation Group was

Tentative plans for the music
lovers will be providing a record
player, records and making ar
rangements for a regular meeting
place.
Reduced parcel post
Rates for Alaska to
Be Effective Nov. 15
A reduction in parcel post
rates for shipments by either
surface or air between many
points in the United States and
in Alaska will go into effect here
November 15.
According to the announcement
made by the Post Office Depart
ment in Washington, D. C., the
reductions will be effected by ap
plying parcel post zones based on
distance. However, until such
time as the zone chart and rate
schedules are received from
Washington, the details of the re
ductions will not be known here,
postal employes explained.
Rates will be lower, according
to the announcement, when the
distance involved is less than 1800
miles.
Shipments between the Pacific
Northwest and Alaska will bene
fit the most from the lower par
cel post rates. However, there
also will be reductions on some
shipments to the Dakotas, New
Mexico and Arizona.
A few examples cited were:
A five-pound parcel between Se
attle and Southeast Alaska, in
cluding Juneau. Ketchikan, Sitka,
Skagway or Wrangell is now 64
cents. Under the reduced rates
based on the zone system, the
shipments would cost 39 cents.
A ttn-pound shipment between
Seattle and the same points in
Alaska is now $1.22. With the re
duction it would be 69 cents.
Shipments going by air be- j
tween Seattle and either of the j
five mentional Southeastern cities !
s now $4. With the reduced rate j
it would be $2.94.
At the same time that the an- ■
nouncement of the reduced par- :
cel post rates between Alaska and !
;he states was made, a notice was J
