To Correct a Misleading Announcement On page 12 of Portrait for February, 1918, appearedan illustration of a card used by Mr. L. E. Lafler of theArt Shop of Prineville, Oregon, for sending bills forfinishing work to his customers. A photographer who tried out the plan after ourannouncement was published has reported to us thatthe Post Office in his town would not accept it for mail-ing at other than first class rates. We immediately askedfor a ruling by the Post Office Department and are PORTRAIT I. Home Portrait by G. Edwin Williams Cyko PORTRAIT informed that the minute the punch holes are put inthe card indicating the amount of the bill the cardbecomes first class mail matter and first class postagerates are necessary in order to mail it. Apparently,therefore, there is no saving of postage through theuse of Mr. Laflers system. We hope that none of our readers have been in-convenienced in any way through our announcementthat such cards could be mailed with photographic printsat third class mail rates.
