1) One who finds a loose piece of paper, in a Shul or Bais Medrash, with Torah notes written on them, may hang it up on the bulletin board near the place where it was found and no other notices need to be hung regarding finding it. (Ruling of HaRav Nisim Karelitz Shlita quoted in Hashovas Aveidah K'Halacha page 80 footnote 19)
2) Obviously. Care must be taken that the piece of paper is hung in such a way that it doesn't get ruined, i.e. no other signs should be taped on top of it etc. (ibid.)

Question:
What is the source and the reason for people dipping their fingers into the wine after Havdalah and rubbing it on their eyes?
Answer:
the source for putting on the eyes is from Pirkei D'Rav Eliezer (Perek 20) and brought in Shulchan Aruch Siman 296:1 "to wash ones face with the leftover wine to show how much we love Mitzvos".
The purpose is for a segulah for health and Hatzlacha and Parnasah. It is also brought in Seforim to put some inthe pockets and also to wipe some across the forehead.
See also Talmud beginning of Sukkah 38a where the concept of using "leftovers" of a Mitzvah is brought as a segulah to prevent calamities.

The
Torah is like a round ring: wherever you're holding, your're in the
middle. Even at the beginning of Chumash you are already in the thick of
it. In fact, when you finish the first verse you've already said the
most important part. There is nothing bigger than this idea that the
whole universe is only figments of His eternal imagination.
