tuberculosis ASSOC
Birthday Party

December birthdays often get less
attention than they deserve because
of the pressure of Christmas cele-
brations But the birthday of the
Christmas Seal is celebrated from
Maine to California in the most ap-
propriate possible way - by buying
and using Christmas Seals to fight
tuberculosis.
The American Christmas Seal was
born 46 years ago on December Z,
1907, when Miss Emily Bissell, well
fare worker in Wilmington, Del,
offered for sale the first Christmas
Seals to raise money to help fight
tuberculosis. Since that day the
sale of Christmas Seals to raise
funds for the tuberculosis control
activities of the 5000 voluntary tu-
berculosis associations has become
an annual event.
When Miss Bissell sold her first
Christmas Seal, tuberculosis was in
first place as a cause of death in this
country. Now, on the 46th birthday
of the Christmas Seal, TB stands
sixth. With bed rest, modern drugs,
and surgery, cases are being cured
every day that once would have been
thought hopeless. Thousands who
once would have had to spend their
lives as dependent invalids are now
being restored to full usefulness.
There has been great progress, but
even greater progress in TB control
must still be made TB kills more
people than all other infectious dis
eases combined. one every II min
utes. An estimated 100000 Amer
leans have active TB. Within the
year, approximately $4,000 persons
will be attacked by the disease. TB
costs us more than $350,000,000 a
year.
The Christmas Seal finances the
activities of the tuberculosis associ-
ations in the about fight of official
and voluntary agencies to wipe out
TB through education, case finding,
rehabilitation of patients, and med
zeal research. Right now, thousands
of volunteers in communities
throughout the United States are
working to make the 1858 Christ
mas Seal Sale a success. Millions of
people are joining the traditional
holiday custom of sticking Christ
mas Seals on their greeting cards
and gift packages.
It's a birthday celebration worthy
of the invaluable contribution of the
Christmas Seal to healthier Amer
lea today and in the future.
