More Of the merchants of the city APP
piled yesterday and today for the little
Red Cross Christmas seals for use on
their merchandise during the Christmas
holidays, and the disposition to help the
fight against tuberculosis i'll this way
is manifesting itself among the mer-
chants Of nearby Virginia towns. c. c.
Middleton. postmaster of The Plains, Va,
has asked for five hundred seals to be
used in his correspondence and otherwise
during the holidays.
In this city W.. Il. Moses & Sons sent
in an order to the committee having
charge of the sale of Red Cross Christ
mas seals for $500 seals, which was soon
followed by orders from Berry & Whit
more and Harris & Co, jewelers.,
who also propose to use them in their
business to help along the good cause.
Mrs Theodore North Mclaughlin, who
with Mrs w. j. Boardman and Mrs.
W. H. Bayly. constitute the Red Cross
committee in charge of the seals, reports
an extensive use of the seals this year
by society women. Wedding invitations
and cards of invitation to dinners, dances
and receptions also are beginning to
show a desire on the part or the SenderS
to help enlarge and extend the usefulness

Needed for the Children.
The great need of larger facilities at
the camp, it is said, is on account Ct the
children. 1t has been discovered by the
committees engaged in the work of fight
ing the disease that it has gained a par
tial hold at least upon SO many Little
ones as the result of poverty and neg leCt.
These children, it is claimed, Will spread
the disease to others with whom they
play. Instances are reported where this
| is said to have occurred. The seals com
mittee say their fight is not onIy one fcr
the afflicted themselves. but for the re-
mainder Of the community as well. and
| that is why they feel there should be a
general response to their call fer help.
1t is imperative that at least $1,000 be
raised during the holiday season by the
| sale of the little Red Cross Christmas
seals. "A cent for a seal and a seal
| for everything sent the committee
| claims, will provide the money if those
| who would be most anxious to aid in
| the cause could realize the situation.
| Think of it, said Mrs Mclaughlin
this morning; lone in every ten deaths
that occur in the District is due to
| tuberculosis And think, too. how easily
| we might save some of these lives Jus,

us. ten patients were absolutely cured
