SALE Of YULET|DE
SEALS IN SCHOOLS
CONTINUED From First Pagel

or the tiny Yule-tide stamps sold will
not be known, but DR. C. r. Phillips,
| VINO is chairman of the subcommittee
Tor school sales, said he believed last
years record was broken. In 1913,
| $4,000 scales were distributed in the
schools; early this week the 1914 al
] lotment of 10000 were taken around
( to the different buildings.
In most of the schools during the
last three days set aside for the active
selling, the story of what will be done
! with the proceeds of the campaign
was impressed upon the youngsters.
About eighty per cent. of the net re-
ceipts will be turned over to the anti
tuberculosis society here and the funds
NSl be distributed for trolley tickets
for the needy children and grown
ups who can't afford or are too i'll
to travel from their homes to the dis
pensary for daily treatment; some to
ibuy tickets and clothing for the
poorer ones whose destination is Mont
Alto or Cresson. Funds were used
last year to furnish the window
tents" for the shut-in patients-the
clever little canvas canopies which are
suspended inside the open windows in
such way as to provide shelter for
the occupant of the bed and at the
same time allow ample light and air
and sunshine.

School buildings, rooms and pupils
settled exciting little rivalries as to
which could sell the most seals. From
all appearances however the Cameron

inc Welcomer will be the star sales
girl of that building. The room is
taught by Miss Anna Whitmeyer. Miss
