father had taken his family to escape
the terror Of the feuds. with no re-
sources save his own physical strength
and an abiding faith in God, this ster-
ling American planted university In
the hills of Kentucky to save her SONS

Burns Of the Mountains" has lived
to see his ideals realized, for the feuds

early struggles Of Oneida and how he
fought feudism with education. He is
still Burns of the Mountains rugged,

one instinctively of Lincoln in his per

1928 CHRISTMAS SEAL

The Christmas Seal of 1923 was
designed by the we'll known artist,
Rudolph Ruzika, a native of Czecho-
Slovakia and an artist of internation-
al reputation.
In commenting on the seal, Basil
G. caves, Manager Of the National
Christmas Seal Campaign, says: ut
is the most inspirational holiday
greeting that was ever crowded into
the small space of a postage stamp.
1t breathes the spirit of Christmas
and the home with little girl sit
tisg in front of the fireplace where
she sees in the bright flames Wis
ion of Santa Claus, the supreme
thought in the little mind. Three
beautiful symbols of home-the
child, the spirit Of Christmas and the
hearth stone-and above on each
side of the fireplace appears the
double-barred cross with its promise
of the gift Of good health to all. A
most fitting token Of the birthday Of
Him who ministered to the lame, the
halt and the blind and said, "Suffer
the little ones to come unto me"
If every letter and package that car
ries the little seals this year could
actually convey its spirit and mean
ing, what wonderful spirit it would
bring before everybody
West Virginia tuberculosis Associ.
910 Quarrier ST., Charleston w. Va.
To the Editor
May we ask you to point out to
your City Department and your
proof room the fact that the Ameri-
can Red Cross does not issue and has
no connection with the tuberculosis
Christmas Seals. Many newspapers
enormously call them "Red Cross
Seals, which they are not.
The proceeds from the seals go
to the National tuberculosis Associ-
alton and it's affiliated state and To-
cal associations. The American Red
Cross has no financial interest in
these seals, although there is cor
dial cooperation between the anti
tuberculosis associations and the
Red Cross.
AS the seal campaign starts on
Thanksgiving Day at the close of
the annual Red Cross Roll Call peo-
pie are inclined to confuse the Christ
mas seal sale and the Roll Call We
think you will agree that this con-
fusion may be obviated in large mea-
sure by the newspapers which are
careful to note the absence of any
connection of the Red Cross with
the campaign of the anti-tuberculos-
is associations.
Cordially yours,
GEORGE C. ROWELL
Executive Secretary
