Leisure and Health.

In the first place we should be care
full not to confuse leisure with idleness
in truth, they are poles apart. And
no less different are they in their in
fluence on the physical well being OF
man. Idleness is one of the greatest
enemies of health; leisure is one of
its essential conditions. A very large
proportion of the almost chronic state
of i'll health which is the lot OF so
large a number of poor people is di-
rectly traceable to the absence of true
leisure in their lives. 1t is of the very
essence of leisure that n shall be
and feel free to exercise just those
faculties of the body and mind which
call out for exercise. 1t is in this
freedom and this chosen exercise that
the pleasure-giving quality OF leisure
lies; and herein Is one OF the great
values of true education. BY all u
and justly proportioned development
of the mind, body and emotions we are
placed in a position to use leisure
wisely and happily.-Scotsman.

DOUBLE BARRED CROSS:
ADOPTED II YEARS AGO

The double barred Red Cross Is
seventeen years old this month. In
October, 1902, the International Anti
tuberculosis Association, then meeting
in Berlin, adopted the cross as the
emblem of the worldwide fight against
tuberculosis. 1t vas proposed by Dr.
G.. Sersiron, of Paris. 1t is a con
bination of the CroiX de Lorraine and
the cross of the Greek Catholic
church. Both crosses are symbolic of
charity and help to humanity. Their
combined features were selected and
adopted as the symbol of the hope of
civilization. Four years later, In 1906,
the double barred Red Cross was car
ried into this country. 1t was in 1906,
the National tuberculosis Association
was formed, and for the three inter-
vening years the cross has been car-
ried over the United States by the
National tuberculosis Association and
its affiliated bodies, which now num-
Der one thousand.
The work of these organizations s
financed chiefly by the Red Cross
Christmas Seal sale.

umph, but to Tom it only smelled OF
cigarette smoke, and he wondered
what caller had preceded him. How
could he. know that Mrs. Sinclair had
been smoking furiously for the last
half hour while she rallied at her
daughter for her extravaganza and be-
cause she was deliberately trying to
"cut OUT her mother with the elderly
and wealthy Mr.. Slater-and at the
same time fooling around with an I'm
pecunious fellow" like Tom?
When he arrived the shaded lights
shone softly. Deyette was charming
in a gown that was quite different
from the village sort. Tom listened
enthralled to her tales of their gay
life in the city and eagerly accepted
an invitation to visit them the follow
ing winter.
It was the result of that strenuous
society life, of course, that had forced
them to come to this charming" little
village for a rest. Now wouldn't Tom
tell more about his work-and what
he hoped to become? Deyette was
clever, so she listened with much ap-
parent interest while Tom talked, ana
! sent him away very much pleased.
You could not call Mary Freeman
clever. She was Just sweet and good
and true. Nor would Tom, in descrio-
ing her home, say that it had a Ger
tain atmosphere" 1t was, in fact'
much like his own-neat and orderly
and comfortable and pervaded by a
spirit of unselfish love.
1t was this spirit which kept MIS-
Freeman from commenting on Toms
absence in the hearing of her daugh-
ter, but it could not keep her from
feeling bitterly toward Tom for caus-
ing the silent suffering which Mary
was striving to conceal.
The Sinclairs had been in town d
month, and Tom Kent had formed tne
habit of dropping in to see Deyette
every evening after supper. ne nau

Educational Campaign.
A call for volunteers to fight under
the standard of the National Tubercu-
losis Association and it's 1000 affiliated
bodies throughout the country against
overwhelmingly most vicious
foe-has been sounded.
A'recent health survey, made by the
experts of the National tuberculosis
Association, brought to light some
startling statistics with regard to the
prevelency Of the disease. The find
ings Of this survey have revealed a
national menace, which must be eradi-
Gated. The figures show that each
year 10000 persons die Of the dis
ease and that there are approximate
ly 100000 cases of tuberculosis in
the United States today.
The untaught consumptive-one who
does not know the rules of health, is
an indefatigable spreader of the dis
ease. Wherever he goes, he leaves be-
hind him a trail Of the deadly germs.

ton and its affiliated bodies have en-
tered upon an intensive nationwide
educational campaign. The campaign
will be localized and within a short
time there will be ample work for
many thousands of volunteers.
The National tuberculosis Associa-
ton and its affiliated bodies are f.
nanced largely by the annual sale Of
Red Cross Christmas Seals. To make
possible the carrying out of this CAM
paign, more than 650,000,0 0 seals will
be offered for sale during the holt
days. State and local tuberculosis
associations have at hand valuable
local data regarding the disease and
actual conditions in the communities
where they are located. The officers
of these bodies eagerly welcome in

FIRST SALE YIELDED $4,000
National tuberculosis Association,
Which Sponsors Sale, Will Place
$50, 900, 1000 Seals on Sale to
: Finance the Fight Against
Tuberculosis.

The Red Gross Seal-as millions OF
Americans know 1t to day, Is an agent
of happiness and health. 1t was orig
mated in 1907 by Miss Emily P. Bissell,
of Wilmington, Delaware, who learned
Through Jacob Riis of somewhat SINH
mar seals that were sold in Norway for
the purpose Of raising funds with
which to fight tuberculosis.
! Miss Bissell persuaded the Ameri-
can Red Cross to take up the Idea with
the result that seals were sold In q
limited number Of communities l
1908. The sale yielded a revenue Of
Approximately $4,000. The Red Cross
ithen decided to issue the seals each
wear and to turn the proceeds over to-
the National tuberculosis association
and it's affiliated societies for the pur-
pose of financing the campaign against
tuberculosis. The number OF seals
sold in America increased by leaps
and bounds until in 1917 the total
reached 1SO,00O,000.
This year the seals are again on
sale beginning December /. More
than half a billion seals have been
lnrinted for distribution to state and
local agents. In addition to the
seals Health Bonds" in denomina-
Itions ranging from $500 to 500. 90
lare to be sold In lieu of seals to
barge contributors, who do not send
Iout a sufficient quantity Of mail in
december to make use of all the seals
they would like to purchase. The
!combined quotas Of all the state or
foundations call for more than $6,5O0,-
loco to carry out the intensive educa-
Itional campaign being conducted by
1.-THE National tuberculosis Association
tand its 1000 affiliated societies.
The intensive sale of these seals
represents a practical demonstration
lof every lesson that has been learned
regarding scientific distribution. Elk
lperts Of the highest standing in sales
management have co-operated to the
~textent of assuring those interested
THAT every resident of the United
States will have an opportunity to buy

Some Faithful Deer.

Wild deer, in the Federal park that
protects the great redwood forest,
have accustomed themselves to the
call of the deputy warden and will
come quickly early in the morning or
late in the evening, when he gives the
signal. When they reach him, he
throws out pieces of apple to them or
snreads barley in a trough from which
thew NAV get the grain. If a stranger
approaches while they are being ieu'
the deer wheel and bound away MO
the forest until Mr.. Weaver calls Tor
them again, and not until then VIII
they come back unless the stranger
has disappeared Or stopped moving.
AS many as IA deer have responded
TO this call at one time.-From the

AS Mrs. Kent closed the front door
after a leisurely survey of the village
street, she remarked to her sister
Annie that Tom was in sight, so they
could put the supper on the table also
that the atmosphere felt quite spring
like.
When Tom had eaten the supper
prepared for him by his adoring wom-
en- folk and had changed into his
other suit, he stopped in the sitting
room on his way out. Here his mother
and aunt sat sewing.
"If you're going to see Mary"-Mrs.
Kent laid her work on the table and
started to arise-"you can return that
cake recipe she lent me-"
"Sit down, mother. Why should you
jump to the conclusion that I'm going
to see Mary Freeman? There are other
girls in town."
"But none nicer, Tom," put in pre-
else little Aunt Annie.
"Mary's all right" agreed Tom, "but
1 stopped to tell you that I'm going to
see Deyette Sinclair a while"
isn't three times a week rather
often to call on a girl you've known
such a short while?" asked Mrs. Kent.
"Small town etiquette, mother. Dey-
cite is a city girl. The Sinclairs make
a fellow feel at home. There's some
thing about their house-soft lights
and all that sort of thing-a certain
atmosphere-oh, 1 can't explain it."
finished Tom impatiently.
"You don't need to explain to US,
Tom, what constitutes the atmosphere
of a true home," quietly i~nterposed
Aunt Annie.
"Well, anyway, the whole family
doesn't sit around and entertain you,
as they do at the Freemans' !" snapped
Tom, and departed.
AS the front door closed behind
him Mrs. Kent picked up her sewing.
Il hope this is merely a passing fancy,
Annie. That girl is a new type in the
village and she fascinates Tom. But l
don't like his neglecting Mary. She's
such a genuine girl"
ayes, her complexion will stand the
sunlight" added the sister.

the atmosphere was saturated with the
germs of jealousy and malicious tri-

"They spell hope, assurance and physical and economic rehabilitation to
