Main St. With a larger volume of Christmas mailing anticipated this year than ever before and with the mailing of Yule letters and packages already under way, the Northern Pacific railroad on Thursday inaugurated its "Santa Claus special" which will be used entirely for Christmas mailing. The plan of the "Santa Claus special" started several years ago when special cars were placed at various points to be used entirely for carrying the Christmas mail, W. B. Elliott, general agent in Butte for the Northern Pacific, explained.

The plan proved most satisfactory and eliminated delay in the regular passenger trains. The railroad is working "hand In glove" with the government which is insisting on early mailing of Christmas letters and packages, Mr. Elliott said. Special cars to carry the Christmas mail are placed on the tracks several hours before the regular trains to pick them up are scheduled to arrive. The time of loading them after the trains arrive is thus eliminated and the cars are attached to the trains with no delay to the passenger schedule.

The plan is in effect in all the larger cities along the line. It will be conitnued from Dec. 7 to Dec. 23 this year, Mr. Elliott said.
