Most OF us waste n great deal OF

In this busy world Of ours, all OF

comes along and insists that he has
an interesting problem 10 relate, he
means interesting TO him--but not
necessarily Interesting 10 us.
One OF tho most popular ways Of
stealing time from another is TO
bother him with confidence for

time OF busy folk who aren't in the

HOLIDAY STAMP OF 3.
DELAWARE ORIGIN

The Delaware death rate from
tuberculosis IN steadily decreasing
The credit for this must be divided
between the work OF the Delaware
AntiJTubercuiosis Society. begun IN
1907 and thst OF the Delaware Tu-
beroulosis Commission, founded IN
1909, and the public health activi-
ties in the schools Of the last few
years.
For 1919 there were sB5 deaths
reported in the State from tubercu-
losis; for 1920. there were s22; and
1921. showed the low figure OF 25s
deaths.
The Christmas Seal started the
work in Delaware. Its first sale. IN
1907. yielded the first money toward
the purchase OF Brsndywins SAM
tsrlum. and for educational work.
At that time the Christmas seal.
a Delaware invention was sold only
in Delaware. Today Il T. sold all over
the United States and brings IN mil
lions OF dollars annually for anti
tuberculosis work.
The Christmas zeal r. sducative.
Each person who buys one is forced
TO think a bit on the subject OF tu-
berculosts. Each year this subject
Is brought before the community.
more information is given upon Il,
and public opinion becomes stron-
