CHRISTMAS SEALS

In few days children in the schools
will be out selling the seals for the
State tuberculosis Preventorium.
These seals are what were formerly
known as the Red Cross seals, but
when their sale was abandoned by the
Red Cross Society the Anti-Tubercu-
losis Society seized the opportunity TO
sell them for their benefit
In former years but one reward was
given for selling seals. This year
there will be three. For selling so
seals a years subscription to the
Modern Health Crusade" will be Civ
en-. For the sale OF 100 seals bangle
pin, and for the sale Of 200 seals a
health ruler. However, Manchester
children are more interested in the
good the money from the sale Of seals
will do for sickly children in the Pre-
ventorium than in the rewards.
The young peoples societies at Burr
and Burton Seminary have charge Of
the sale. The public are urged to buy
and affix them to mail and all
Christmas presents.
