These seals last year helped to support thousands of needy tuberculosis pa tients and to give them a chance for life. They provided for many visit ing nurs.es, whose hundreds of thousands of visits brought instruc tion and cheer to numerous pa tients. They helped maintain dis pensaries in scores of cities from the Atlantic to the Pacific, where thousands of consumptive patients receive free treatment, aid and ad vice. They provided the means to purchase millions of copies of circu lars, pamphlets and other literature with which the public has been ed ucated about tuberculosis. They have established and help to main tain more than 150 open-air schools for children who needed open-air treatment. These are just a few of the ways in which the 5100,000 received last year was expended. This year 51,000,000 is needed. Surely every one can help by buy ing at least ten seals.
