RED CROSS SEALS TO BE.
PLACED ON SALE

Every lover of clean baseball
felt a personal loss when Christy
Mathewson, greatest pitcher OF
all, was forced to quit the dia-
mond and begin his fight against
tuberculosis. He has brought to
this, his greatest battle, the same
indomitable courage and will to
do his best that so endeared him
to the fans a few years ago.
That these same fans do not
forget and love to honor and as
sist him was touchingly displayed
in the testimonial game played
in his honor at the polo grounds
recently. All of the receipts of
the game went to Christy to aid
him in his fight against the white
plague, which he is slowly but
surely winning by the aid of rest,
fresh air and nourishing food.
under the supervision of compe-
tent medical attention.
If all tuberculosis victims in
North Carolina were Christy
Mathewsons and had a remem-
bering, generous public to come
to their aid in the time of need,
the grim reaper would garner a
slender harvest in our State in
stead of the thousands who are
uselessly sacrificed each year.
To dam the tide that sweeps
lives away ruthlessly and to equip
every North Carolinian with the
whole armor to fight tuberculosis,
is the mission and sole work Of
the North Carolina tuberculosis
Association. AS you will want
a part in this work, the Associa-
ton announces that ten million
Christmas seals will be placed on
sale in North Carolina this year,
thereceipts from which will be
used to wage the war.

Tuberculosis Association 10
Saving Lives

The charge of profiteering
might well be made against the
Bureau Of tuberculosis Of the
State Board of Health and the
North Carolina tuberculosis As
sociation admits DR.. L. B. Nc
Brayer, Director of the Bureau
and managing and Director Of
the Association. This admission
is made in view of the number of
lives saved and cases of tubercu-
losis prevented since 1916, when
active measures for the control
of tuberculosis were begun.
Since that time 2, 237 lives have
been saved in North Carolina.
These figures are based on the
supposition that the same death
rate would have obtained in 1920
as in 1915 if no precautionary
measures had been taken but
there is small doubt but what the
rate would have increased con-
siderable. 1t has been demon
strated that an active case of
tuberculosis who is careless will
infect at least 8 other persons
and it is therefore stated that at
least II, 900 infections have been
prevented. This represents a
saving in money to North Car
olina of over $68, 900, 900.
The funds that it has taken to
accomplish this are derived from
State appropriation and from the
sale of tuberculosis Christmas
Seals and the approximate
amount so expended during the
6 year period has been 81. 10000
This amount includes not only all
State appropriations for tubercu-
losis work but all funds expend-
ed by patients taking treatment
at the State Sanitorium and all
funds raised throughout the
State by the sale of Christmas
Seals.
It would therefore seem that
every dollar invested in tubercu-
losis work brings an enormous
return and DR.. McBrayer further
asserts that with an expenditure
of two dollars per capita per
year for one decade tuberculosis
can be practically eliminated.
Isthis saving of human life
worth while? We think 50. If
considered from q financial stand
point only it means that an aver
age Of two and one half years
will be added to every resident of
