other manufacturers in the
largest industry in the world.
This is one of the major con-
tributions made by any Amer

tional betterment in terms of
employment and material con-
sumption.
Nearly $4,000 of the new
1893 series, valued in excess of
$40, 100000, will be required

poses alone, and the manufac-

sumption Of more than $4,000
tons of iron and steel and the
use of large quantities of the
thirty other major commodi-
ties which go into the produc-
ton of a new Chevrolet Six,
Mr.. Knudson stated.
Aside from economic consid-
erations, he said that Chevro-

company manufactured nearly

promised In the 1888 car. The
extended wheelbase, coupled
with many improvements in
body. in performance, econo-

factors, indicate a model much
improved over the present line,
and set at rest rumors current

LET'S ALL HELP

OAAJ LOW uUyo UOAO4A
Thanksgiving Day when the
annual sale of tuberculosis
Christmas Seals will begin!
The sale will be conducted as
usual under the auspices of the
Maryland tuberculosis Asso-
citation.
Year by year, the tiny sym~
bols have carried their mes~
sage of hope throughout the
country. Good old Santa Claus
has appeared on some; bells
gayly ringing out their remind
ers of good will on others;I
ships under full sail on others:l
and this year, healthy looking
little choristers bring the
thought of a Christmas that ia
made happier through service
to others.
"It is especially appropriate
for the message Of the Tuber~
culosis Seals to be brought to-
us by healthy, happy children"
DR.. r. H. Riley, Director Of the
State Department Of Healtha
said in calling attention to the
opening of the annual seal sales
because if we can safeguard
the children and young people
of today from damage by this
insidious disease, we will do
much to check the danger at
its. very source. We are also
laying the foundations for
healthy manhood and woman-
hood-the best barrie de
against the disease.
Tuberculosis doesn't 'jusd
happen Every case Of the die
sease is derived, or caught as
we say, in some way from
some other case. Children and
young people are particularly
susceptible to the disease.
Persons who have it are often
careless, ignorant, or indiffer-
ent about splitting. sneezinga
coughing, and spray thei1
germs around where other peo-
pie are endangered by thems
Children and young people arg
frequently the victims of such
carelessness.
"The keynote of the fight
against tuberculosis is Preven~
ton. The tremendous victor-
les that have been won in the
fifty years since Koch made his
great discovery of the germ
that causes the disease, have
been accomplished through APP
plying the knowledge that has
accumulated as to ways and
means by which the disease
can be prevented. The means
of prevention have been found
to be comparatively simple
sunshine, fresh air, nourishing
food, suitable clothing, plenty
Of sleep, wholesome recreation
and protection from infection.
If there has been a weak spot
in the defenses and the disease
has gotten a foothold, there is
still hope of arresting it, if dis
covered in the early stages and
prompt care is given.
"Part Of the money derived
from the sale Of the Christmas
Seals is contributed by the
Maryland tuberculosis Asso-
citation toward the support Of
clinics held every month
throughout the counties for
the examination of persons
who show symptoms of the di-
sease, or who have been in
contact with it. The clinics
are held under the joint aus
pices of the State Department
of Health and the Tuberculosis
Association. Thousands Of
people have been benefited by
this service, and many of them
have been started on the road
to health.
"This is only one of the ways
in which the money you put
into the Christmas Seals helps
others. You don't have to
have a great deal of money to
have a part in the fight against
tuberculosis. The seals are.
only a penny a piece. Let
Help To The Utmost"
