the Public Health Association journal

makers; they never fail to gain attention,
sympathy and service
Fifty per cent of the Seal receipts may
be used locally for approved anti

ceeds amount to at least $50.
For each 5000 seals sold, that is for
each $50 raised, the town or county will

culosis survey, or infant welfare work,
or all these combined, will be furnished
free with all necessary supplies, including
all expenses, for one week.

furnished on a pro rata basis as stated
above.

DR.. I. J. Murphy, executive secretary
of the association in charge of sale of
seals, announces that the mails will be
utilized this year in the work, to a
greater extent than ever before. He
says:
"A special feature of the campaign
this year will be in the rural districts.
All Of the 900 farmers clubs Of the state
will be sent supplies. All of the rural
teachers will be sent seals and special
health story fer children.
This year nearly all the local cam
paign managers will use the mail sale
method in their districts. In the locali-
ties Where this was tried last year, most
of the professional and business men
wrote the campaign manager, that they
preferred to receive their seals by mail
Some Of them were so pleased with this
method that they sent check of from
SIS to $40 for the 81 worth of seals re-
ceived. I
