Stamps or seals were first used to
get money for the antituberculosis
crusade in Norway and Sweden in 1904.
To Jacob Riis, the well-knOwn social
worker Of New York, and to MISS
Emily p. Bissell, the energetic secre-
try Of the Delaware Red Cross. jointly
belong the honor of originating our
American Red Cross Christmas Seal.
In 1909 MIR. Riis' interest was aroused
by.the receipt of a Christmas tuber-
culOsis stamp on letter from Norway.
He published an article about this
qucer-lo0Ring stamp in the Outlook,
and suggested some possible uses for it
in this country. Miss Bissell Mt once
saw an opportunity here and prepared
a stamp, from the sale Of which her So
ciety realized So, 600 for tuberculosis
work. So impressed was she with his
success that she induced the American
Red Cross u take up the sale in 1908
on a national basis. With very little
organization and with hardly any at
tempt at careful advertising. the sale
that year brought in, nevertheless,
over S135, 600 for Gntituberculosis work
in various parts of the United States.
In 1909. with more thorough orRaniza-
ton, the sale was increased to 1920, 600 !;
in 1901 TO nearly S3l0. 600; 10 1871 to
over $3.50, 90. and over 40, 600, 000 seals
netting S400, 600, were sold last year

WhaI Three Cents Did.

A little boy about six years old,
rushed into store in Trenton and
asked If they kept those stamps that
had the picture Of Santa Claus on.
The clerk said: Yes. my boy, we
DO how many would you like to
have?"
The little boy looked earnestly into
the clerks face and asked: How
much are they7"
The clerk answered that they were
only cent piece.
The child looked joyfully around
and said = heard my mother talk
ing about how the money was Il ne lp
the poor sick people that had con

How The Red Cros. Seal Originated.

Nearly 81, 800. 600 has been raised by
Red Cross Christmas Seals in the last
five years, and yet many people do not
know now this charity stamp idea
originated. Some of your grandmoth-
ers first played "postoffice" with stick
ers similar to Red Cross Seals way
back in 1862, when they conceived the
idea Of selling stamps at fairs for the
benefit Of the relief funds for the sol
diers' hospitals in Brooklyn, Boston
and elsewhere. Nearly 81, 600. 600 was
raised in this way before 1865. After
the war this method of raising money
was discontinued in this country for a
generation, although it found vogue in
Portugal, Switzerland, Austria, France,
Spain, Denmark, Norway, Russia,
Sweden and other European countries.
There are now thousands Of different
types of charity stamps used in all
parts Of the world, as many as 40 be-
ing used in Austria for children's hos
pitfalls alone.

THE TINE FOR LEGISLATIVE SEES
SIONS.

The legislatures Of the other New
England states are about to open their
annual sessions, while the Vermont leg
islature, which opened in October, IS
about to return to complete its business.
There have been two breaks in the SEES
sion of the Vermont lawmakers by rea-
son of holidays, and the work OF the
session has been retarded to great eX-
tent by the breaking-off of discussions
lust when the members were beginning
to get q grasp of the subjects. A great
deal of time is lost when the legisla-
ture reconvenes after a recess while the
members are catching hold OF the loose
ends of legislative matters and getting
back into working order. However, II
all goes WELL Vermont will join the
other New England states in making
It's annual legislative sessions begin aft
err the opening of the new calendar
year, when tile distractions of pro-
longed holiday season are past and there
is nothing ahead but long season OF
uninterrupted working conditions. There
il no doubt that the Vermont legisla-
ture could finish its biennial business
in far shorter time if the session were
not so badly broken up as it is at the
present time under the arrangement of
fall converting, January is by far the
best time for the legislature to meet
to do good work; and it is the best time
from the standpoint OF the individual
members as in the case of the most of
them it is the period of least activity
of their private affairs-the farmer, the
merchant, the lawyer, etc. Their saeri-
flee to perform public service would
be less at this time of the year than
at any other. Therefore, there is near

ly everything to commend the proposed
change of the legislative assembling,
SOME INFECTIOUS DISEASES IN
VERMONT.

With respect to four so-called infec-
tious diseases, Vermont has made re-
markable progress during the past ten
years, the number of deaths from each
being remarkably reduced. For IN
stance, there was an average OF 1904
deaths each year from typhoid fever
in the period from 1897 to 1910, during
the period from 1907 to 1911 there was
an average annual death of 1915, max
ing reduction OF more than one-half.
Even greater progress toward stamping
out mortality from diphtheria and Group
was made the comparison for the above
named periods being rs to 30 each year;
and as good record was made in scar
let fever. the figures being l7.S as COM
pared with 50. In tuberculosis cases
there was not such marked progress,
but even in this there was considerable
reduction, the comparison being 4eo.o
in the former four-yea period to 4l9.6
in the latter four-year period. These
four diseases have been considered as
among the major infectious for long
time, but latterly typhoid, scarlet fe-
yer and diphtheria have ben losing much
Of their terrors, while tuberculosis, the
greatest slayer of human kind, has al
so been subdued to a considerable ex-
tent, more so perhaps in many states
than in Vermont, where there is little
more than half hearted effort to combat
its insidiousness. But the progress that
has been made is an earnest OF what
Vermont might do toward stamping
out the white plague provided real
concerted efforts were made by the
people and medical practitioners.
However, as Secretary Charles F. Dali
ton Of the state board of health points
out in circular just issued, Vermont
has been actually losing ground in fight
ing two of the infectious diseases which
have been considered mild ailments and
not of consequence to require great at
tention and severe quarantine. There
is measles, deaths from which increased
annually from 1856 to 29.6 in the period
used for illustration above, while whoop-
ing cough made still more serious in
roads, the progress of this disease being
from 22.s to 40.2. Secretary Dalton
says: Measles and whooping cough
are really more dangerous at the pres
ent time than scarlet fever and diph
liberia" That being proven by the
statistics just quoted it behooves the
people of the state to bend greater ener
gies toward the suppressing of those two
This can be done by more prompt re-
porting OF cases and, then, stricter en-
forcement of quarantine regulations.
The state board of health makes an
urgent appeal for greater cooperation;
the people of the state ought to lend
that cooperation. Vermont is health |
full state, but not nearly what it ought |
to be with splendid climate conditions,
water and fresh air.
