smiling with his little pointed nose,
among the leaves wet with dew. after
a nest of eggs that belonged to Mrs.
All Of a sudden. Stmmy Coon gave
an awful jump. and he jumped so
quickly in his fright, that, he landed
in the middle Of q big pool In the

there in the brook. shivering with q
great fear In his little heart, he saw
a strange creature coming towards
him. This wonderful creature was as
white as snow. The creature was
bigger than Jimmy Coon; and came
right towards him, with mouth wide

sharp teeth!
Jimmy had never seen such a sight

Purchase Seals
And Do Your Bit

The biggest drive in the history Of
the. Red Gross Christmas seal move
ment is being made this year. AL
ready 44o, 900, 900 Of the little Christ
mas stickers have been printed and
distributed throughout the United
States.
Agents in every state and territory
in the union from Alaska to the canal
zone and from Porto Rico and Hawaii
and even in the far off Philippines
stamps. Through these agents the
seals will be distributed to the local
and state anti-tuberculosis associ-
atoms and to other agencies through
which they will be put OF sale.
Every effort is being made to stimu-
late the sale of the seals this year
so the s 100000 fund which Is the
objective, will be realized. The oun
try's entry into the war and the con-
sequent revelation Of the prevalence
Of tuberculosis INT the danger in
which the disease has placed our
army has added incentive to the cam
paign.
Every man. woman and child is
being asked to triple the mount of
their Red Cross seal purchases this
veal. II they bought a hundred seals
last yCdI, lllSy u oCAi6 oonSu ~ Wy
three hundred this year, as the annual
fund to be raised must be increased
from the 191 6total Of 100000 to
$4,000, 900.
Advertising circulars, post cards
and letters are being sent out to aid
in the sale of seals Upwards Of g.
900, 900 personal letters have been
written, and an army of fully 100000
workers, most of them volunteers, are
busy booming the campaign.
Few people who buy the little mes
sages of Christmas cheer realize that
more than 1900 anti-tuberculosis as
sociations Of the country derive their
chief support from Red Cross Christ
mas seals. H.. y
People who wish to purchase these
seals will ind them at the various
drug stores, department stores. hotels.
schools, hospitals and other places of
business. Everyone is urged to do
their bit toward making h sales in
Grand Forks reach the full quota this
year as it is more important than
ever. before that sufficient honey be
raised to carry on the work. We
need money. not only for the tubercu-
lar patients in our W state, but also
for our soldiers who are going to fight
i nthe stricken region of France. 1t
seems such a little thing for us to do
and yet il we all do our bit it will
mean enough money to carry on the
work which mean so much to the
many sufferers.
Put a seal on every letter or parcel
that you send. and feel that you are
helping someone to health and hap
piness. 1t will make you happier, too.
