RED CROSS SEALS
The Work They Do In the
Anti tuberculosis Cam
paign.

The Red Gross Christmas Seal Cam
paign is on Everywhere throughout
the United States these little messen-
gers of health are being sold. There
never was a time in the history of the
country when so many people co oper-
ated in one particular campaign as In
this fight against tuberculosis. Since
IL has been learned that tubarculosis is
not inherited, but infectuous, we know
it is preventable, and the great cry is,
''If preveEtable, why not preventT'
Red Gross Christmas Seals do more to
create sentiment in favor of the war
fare against tuberculosis than any 9TH
er one campaign.
First, and most obvious, but not
most important, the Christmas Seal IS
the means of raising money for the
campaign against tuberculosis
Second the Christmas Seal Is a
means for awakening interest, so that
large numbers of all kinds of people
are led to read and talk about tubercu-
losis
Third, The Christmas Seal provides
an opportunity for anyone and every
one, almost without limitation of cir
cumstances or condition, to render
some real help in this fight against tu7
berculosis.
Fourth, the Christmas Seal creates
the possibility of spreading an enorm-
ous amount of actual information in
Asuch manner as to largely increase
NE general knowledge about tubercu-
bis.
Eeifth, the Ch1istmas Seal through
extensive campaign of a few
eks, eulists large numbers of lndl-
halls and groups, who give some
Ig of time, thought and effort for
common goou in the warfare
inst tuberculosis.
slxth The Christmas Seal, therefore,
Yes TO. increasing numbers OF people
He sense of great common interest;
IN opportunity for aiding financially,
and a chance of actively helping a
movement which is of interest to the
entire community, the whole state and
the nation as well.
Tennessee this year conducts the
first state campaign with the Red
Cross Christmas Seals. This move
ment is backed by the most promin-
eut people in the state Two glaring
facts that should stimulate every cltl-
zen to aid in the movement are these:
First, Tennessee furnishes more
deaths from tuberculosis than any 9th
er state in the union, and, second, that
tuberculosis should be stamped out in
FIVE years if every individual would
cooperate in this movement.
All the money raised from the sale
of the Red Cross Christmas Seals in
Tennessee goes into fund that will
finance a permanent work. Every town
in the state should respond to the ap-
peal that has been sent out from the
state committee to make a large per
capita sale of the Christmas Seals in
their community State headquarters
for the campaign are in Nashville.
ANY communications addressed to j.
D Strain, Secretary, will be promptly
replied to and full information given.
Let us bs loyal to our state and enlist
in such a good cause for the good of
humanity as is represented by the war
fare against tuberculosis
Each seal costs a penny and every
penny is bullet in the fight.
