Milwaukee. Jan. 18th Especially
WISCONSIN gives promise of again
standing first in the Red Cross
Christmas Seal Campaign" is the
statement of Otto f. Bradley,
campaign manager of the Wis
consin Anti-Tuberculosis Associa-
ton. "The returns are not COM
plete enough at the present time,
however, to warrant an estimate Of
what the total sale will be.
"The money from the Red Gross
Seals this year is TO be used in a
campaign for the permanent
eradication of preventable disease,
primarily among children. Organ
lied relief is the policy of the
association. It does not give
money to individual sufferers.
Such policy. on the face OF it, would
be folly. The $500 netted last
year from seals, il distributed
among the "a, 600 living cases of
tuberculosis in Wisconsin would
mean little more than half dollar
per case without counting the cost
of attempting to administer such
fund for the whole state of Wiscon-
sin efficiently and with justice which
would be impossible.
"The association by securing the
establishment OF visiting nurses and
sanatoria has procured care for far
more patients than it could have by
spending its limited means tn the
patients directly. Further more.
its work is permanent, and will be
self perpetuating. In addition, the
education OF the general public has
been even more important.
1.-TWO facts should not DE over
looked.
"First:-During the past five
years the death rate from
tuberculosis in Wisconsin has de-
creased six times as fast as the
total death rate.
"Second:-Wisconsin now has the
third lowest death rate OF all the
forty-eight states in the U MON. I"

Cara of the Feet.

The care Of the feet is one Of the
most essential things 70 remember
while preparing for hike. The feet
should be bathed at least once every
twenty-four hours If possible two
pairs of shoes should be taken, and a
change should be made each day. A
liberal supply Of stockings should be
on hand If this IS not practical or
possible have at least two pairs free
from holes and EARNINGS. Clean stock
ings should be donned every morning
This can be done with two pairs by

Small Pox at Ashland

Ashland is having quite a
small pcx scare just at this time
and several cases of the disease
have been reported. The disease
is in such a mild form that
many are not even laid up with
it. The Ashland authorities are
taking every precaution and the
children in the schools are being
vaccinated to ward off possible
attack from the disease.
