Most Letters Returned
While most of the letters sent
out have been returned, there are
yet some which have not been re-
ceived at headquarters, and IL Is
earnestly requested that these be
returned as soon as possible with
the enclosed seals or, preferably,
the cash.
In a letter to the different
units handing the sale Of these,
Justice Fred II. Davis, Of the
Florida Supreme Court, shows the
possibility of several counties in
Florida not reaching their last
years sales total.
Justice Davis introduced in the
Florida Legislature in 1927 the
bill creating the state tubercu-
losis sanatorium which is now be
ing erected at Woodsmere. near
Orlando and naturally he is Wit
ally interested in the project
Not Expensive
"The Christmas Seal campaign
is not an expensive campaign" ne
points oct. at could be ade-
quately financed to prosecute the
preliminary work necessary to the
success of the Florida program
through just one penny more Of
contributions by ChxlsEmss glft
buyers. EfEaFel
"Just one penny more. That Is
all that is needed, and ] am sure
the citizens of counties where IL
berculosis seal sales have fallen
behind last years totals are eager
to rally to the aid Of the cam
paign.
Florida has a SOS. 900 public
sanatorium for tuberculosis nov
under construction and when
completed by next April il viii be
capable of caring for $50 tubercu-
lar patients.
Certainly that one penny more
viii help to alleviate the suffer
ings of thousands of people IN
Florida. The suggestion has been
made that each Christmas shop
per put aside one penny more for
each gift purchased during the
holiday season and with these pen
mics purchase Christmas seals. IN
