RETURNS FROM SALE OF CHRISTMAS
HEALTH SEALS HELPS TO FINANCE
WORK OF HEALTH NURSE AND CLINICS

The little Christmas Health Seals
now on sale in Augusta and
throughout the State of Maine and
the entire nation-are not desig-
mated any more as RED Cross
Seals" according to statements is
sued yesterday by representatives of
the Maine Public Health Association
and the Augusta Public Health AS
ISOLATION. 1t is the same series of
seals, however, which have been
sold each year for nearly two de-
cades for the purpose of raising
funds for health work.
For many years-beginning with
1907 and continuing until 1920-the
seals were known as Red Cross
Seals. The sale even then was mad
by state and local associations affili-
ated with the National Tuberculosis
Association and the funds used in
the fight against tuberculosis. The
American Red Cross at that time is
sued the seal under it's own trade
mark but aside from that had little
to do with the annual sales cam
paign or with the development of
health programs through the pro-
ceeds of the sale.
the sale steadily increased and last
year more than $4.5OO,0OO was raised
in the United States in this way. The
business had grown to such an eX-
tent and the number of tuberculosis
and public health organizations en-
gagged in the work were so numerous
that in 1920 by mutul agreement

REVEREND FATHER JOSEPH r,
MCGOWAN

Practitioners at st. Mary's Catholic
church Sunday morning learned with
regret that the curate. Rev. Father
Joseph R. MCGOWAN, is to leave the
parish this week, called to new fields
of activity by the new bishop of the
Maine diocese, the Right Reverend
John G. Murray.
Father MCGOWAN spoke at all three
masses and feelingly expressed his re-
grets in leaving a parish that he de-
clared had come to be regarded as
home to him. He briefly reviewed his
work in the parish during the past six
years and stressed the cooperation ac-
corded him in his efforts. He also
made reference to the remarkable
spirit manifest in the Holy Name So
ciety. Throughout his remarks there
was manifest sorrow in the congrega-
ton over his leave-taking.
The appointment of Father Nc
Gowan to ST. Mary's parish was the
first following his ordination by Car
dinal Gibbons at Washington. He
came to Augusta six years ago and by
his pleasant personality and his atti-
tude of kindly helpfulness readily won
the love and esteem not only of his
own parishioners, but also of all with
whom he came in contact Through
those same sterling qualities he exact
ed the willing cooperation of the
boys and girls and the men and wom-
