What Red Cross
Seals Help Do
Every Red Cross Christmas Seal
that is sold is a real bullet in the
fight against tuberculosis. 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.
