RED CROSS SEAL NOT ABOL
tSHED.
No Official Order issued-New Design
Will Be Used-Agents Appointed in
Every State.

Not only will the sale of Red Cross
Christmas Seals be continued this year,
but il will be carried on along broader
lines, and will be larger and more COM
prehensive than ever before, says DR..
Livingston Farrand, Executive Secretary
of The National Association for the Study
and Prevention of Tuberculosis, in a
statement issued today by the Press Bu-
reau of that organization.
! DR.. Farrand denies absolutely the state
mcnts which have appeared recently to
the effect that Postmaster General Hitch
cock had forbidden the sale of Red Cross
Seals mo official order has been issued
on this matter, '~says DR.. Farrand. ION
July list the Post Office Department de-
| cided that they could no longer carry
mail matter which bore stamps or
seals which resembled postage stamps.
our design of the Red Cross seal,
however has been approved definite
" by postmaster General Hitchcock and
the Department, and il does not come
within the prohibitions of this order of
July list II hardly looks as if We We're
going to abandon the sale, when we have
already placed the order for the printing
of advertising matter.
THE Red Cross Seal this year will be
from a new design drawn by an artist in
Washington. ID. c. Every effort has been
made to get as far away from the con-
Ventional design of stamps and seals as
possible. The new seal will depict very
pretty winter scene. In the lower right
hand corner viii appear snow-eevered
house with n pine tree, also snow-cov-
cred, in the foreground. The scene is at
night and the windows are lighted. In
the background are trees and snow
capped hills. In the upper left-hand cor
ner will appear small red cross The
entire design is enclosed with a heavy
red circle The year is expressed in Ro-
man numerals The only other words on
the seal are, american Red Cross, merry
Christmas Happy New Year The cor
ners of the seal, which will be square,
are in white, thus giving the effect of ID
circular seal when it is affixed to letters
and packages.
at is very important that every one
bear in mind that the Post Office Depart
ment will not carry any letters bearing
these seals or any other non-postage
stamps upon the face of the letter. Red
Cross Seals may and should be placed on
the back of letters and packages.
agents for the Seals of Red cross
Seals have now been appointed in every
large state of the United States. More
territory Will be covered this year, and
more agents will sell seals than ever be-
fore. We need and want million dol
lars from the sale Of Red Cross Seals in
