FIGHT: WlIlE;=PLAGUE
BY BUYING c1IR1 R1sTMAs SEALS
SALE STARTS ON
DEcEMBER i

Next Wednesday, December /, is the
opening day of the annual Red Cross
Christmas Seal sale in Minnesota and
from that day up to the holidays, seals
will be sold in every county to, raise
funds for public health work and par
ticularly to fight the spread of tuber.
culosis.
Miss Janet Worden, county nurse
will have charge of the seal sale in Nor
rison county and she will put forth he1
best efforts to make the sale record
one. She is sending out $40 worth OF
seals to each rural school, together with
a letter asking the teachers to sell as
many Of these as possible through the
school children. In Little Falls, the
business section will be handled by a
special committee composed of Erick
L. johnson, Chas. Jensen and A. F.
Koslosky. The residence section will
be handled by Mrs. A. 81. Vernon and
her sub-committees. Booths will be
placed at the N. P. station, Buckman
hotel and postoffice. In the schools
Supt. Bergquist will handle the sea1
sale.
A large percentage of the money de-
rived from the sale of these seals re-
mains in the county for public health
work. Last year, the county and city
divided the proceeds and these sums
we're used for educational clinics,
twelve in number. A great deal of
territory was covered and much work
was done among the school children.
Everyone is now familiar with this
work and everyone is urged to help as
Morrison county must double the a.
mount turned in last year. The minim-
um quota of this county is on the basis
Of 10 cents per capita. Those who can
are expected to invest dollars instead of
pennies in these health stamps.
Governor Burnquist has designated
December as Health Sunday and the
week of December 20 as Health Week.
In expressing the hope that the cam
paign will be a record success, the gov
ernor says he hopes that every citizen
in every community in the state will
give generous support to provide funds
for this work. He states that more ade-
quate provision would be made. if the
people realized the toll taken annually
by preventable disease. The records
show, he says, that deaths from this
plague decreased from III in 1911 to "a
in 1919. and he expressed the hope that
the people will deem it a privilege to
buy Christmas seals and heed the appeal
to "seal your mail with the stamp of
health.' s~~"~s~s
