In 1907 Jacob Riis, the we'll known
writer and social worker, received a
letter from a friend in Denmark bear
ing one of the Danish tuberculosis
Christmas stamps. He was interested
in the little emblem and secured from
his friend something Of its history,
which he described in an interesting
article in the "Outlook." Miss Emily
P. Bissell, an enterprising Red Cross
worker in Wilmington, Del, read the
article and conceived the idea Of using
a Christmas stamp for tuberculosis
sanatorium which she was then es-
tablishing on the outskirts of Whining
ton. With the support Of the Philadel
/ phia ''North American and the local
newspapers, she launched sale that
brought in over $4,000 for her pro-
ject.
/, The success of the venture at once
appealed to her imagination. After
much persuasion she was able 60 in
duce the authorities Of the American
Red Cross al Washington to undertake
nationwide campaign for the sale
of Red Cross Christmas stamps in
1908. Over $l35,0O0 was realized from
this first sale, and that with practl-
.cally no organization except the vol
unteer activity OF women's clubs, reli-
gious organizations, Red Cross chap
ters and other groups. The next year
1.-THE sale increased to over 100000.
In 1910 the National tuberculosis
association, which at that time was
rapidly developing it's organization
Throughout the country, came into al
lance with the American Red Cross
for the purpose OF conducting the
IChristmas seal sale. Under the terms
Of agreement the National Tubercl-
losis association became the general
Iagent Of the Red Cross in the Christ
mas seal sale and assumed responsi-
Ibility for the organization and conduct
Of the sale, the methods used, the fin
ancial arrangements between national
state and local groups, and the manner
in which the funds were to be ex-
pended. The Red Cross withdrew from
(active conduct of the sale, except that
lit lent to the tuberculosis associations
Its emblem and name, and gave to
the entire seal sale it's moral and fin
Iancial backing. The value of the spon-
sorship of the Christmas seal idea by
the American Red Cross in those early
jdays, when the tuberculosis movement
twas Struggling for existence, can hard
ly be over estimated. When, in 1919,
lit became necessary to sever the
|Christmas seal relations, the impetus
given, for the ten years preceding,
to the Christmas seal, made it much
easier for the National tuberculosis
association to establish its own seal.
Since 1919 the Christmas seal sale has
horne no relation To tho Red Cross
The seal is strictly a tuberculosis seal.

YOUNGER BRITISH PROS
SEEK Jobs IN AMERICA

A number of the leading golf pro-
fessionals of the younger class In
Great Britain are seeking clubs In the
| lifted States, according to Fred Ken
.iedy, who recently returned to Am
erica after spending more than a year
has long list of the names OF
British professionals who asked him
to aid them in finding clubs.
Kennedy reports that many of the
older British professionals, among
them those who recently toured the
younger players in Great Britain that
they can do better here than in their
own country and would "go out" them
selves. If they were younger men.
Vardon Is among the veteran pro-
fe.sionals of this opinion. He was
made in American golf and the op-
portunity here for good instructors.
Among the British professionals
who would come to America II they
could obtain 'berths are Arthur q.
Havers of Blundell Sands, rated as
fessionals. James Ockenden of Raynes
Park. Burt Seymour of West Essex
Oudrey Boomer of st. Cloud, Paris;
v B. Smith, Laying Island; A. Kay.
Newcastle; Peter Robinson, Braid
Hills, the Scottish open champion;
r Ieu ASdCA, 3NOTlHWOOQ, A. Holland,
Northampton and Z. r. Witcomb,
Cam Down.
This list includes only the better
known of the younger players in the
professional ranks. There are many
others who desire to locate in
America. Salaries are higher here
than in Great Britain and there is a
larger earning capacity. Three pounds
would be considered a good weekly
tsalary there. This does not COM
pare with the figures paid In the
United States.

WATER GOLF POPULAR
ON CALIFORNIA COAST

Water golf is the latest addition to
aquatic sports. according to word
received from Jock Hutchison, Brit
ish open champion, who just has fin-
ished a tour of the Pacific coast.
Along the southern California sea-
shore men and women are playing the
game by driving the ball from a
floating tee while standing in a canoe
or a boat padded by an assistant.
Bathing suits are worn by the players
and their seafaring caddies, SO that
the golfers may swim back to the
clubhouse in case an awkward swing
capsizes the boat.
Naturally. the new game violates
the cardinal rules Of land golf, be-
cause the player is assisted by his
caddie. who steadies the boat while
the stroke is made. The ball cannot
be putted into a hole as is done on
land, but may be shot at fixed area
In the water, and the game is played
with many variations as to scoring
and length Of links

LET the batter steal first base" wrote
the Missouri lawyer, land this advantage
Of pitcher over batter will be equal
ized."
Mr.. Gillham says that the average
fan wants to see "men running the
bases" and change in the rules that
will permit a fleet-footed batter to
pilfer the initial sack. he thinks. Is the
very thing needed to speed up the
pastime. The double steal that occa-
sionally thrills the fans now would be
mild compared with the ''quadruple
steal' that might take place under the
rule change that Mr.. Gillham suggests.
The letter to Mr.. Lands follows in
part:
~ have seen many criticisms of base
ball by professional base ball men and
others. Chief among those criticisms
II the fact that the ms and outs
Of base ball are not evenly balanced.
The outs always seem to have an ad-
vantage over the ins' and the ordinary
strictly scientific game seems to be that
the batters go out all too frequently in
one, two, three order. To the profess
sional base ball man that may be a
good game. but the thing the average
fan wants to see in a game Of base ball
Is men running the bases.'

Dempsey, who has for some time

that Dempsey was on his way east
from Los Angeles. had left his social
secretary and his manicure set behind
and left Chicago without looking out OF
the car window. All Of this was cons!d-

big plans in view for his protege.
