The Herald is
pleased to second
the efforts of the
Alliance Woman's
Club in NODI
Red Cross Christ
mas seals. This
is done to assist
in the noble efforts that have been
made in recent years to stamp out
consumption. The National Associa
tion for the Study and Prevention of
Tuberculosis, and others interested in
this great work, have done splendid
ly In educating the public as to the
prevention and cure of this dreadful
disease, and in assisting the victims
of R who needed assistance. The A
median Red Cross Society have
been helping financially the last few
yean l issuing Red Cress Christ
mas seals. These seals are used In
Stamping Christmas packages sent by
mail or express, pint ting them on the
backs of envelopes and on letters
They have no value ils pos.ta.jji
stamps or In payment of any trans
Potation -barges, but they make
pretty ornament for packages, and
silently call attention to the (Mat
work dial is being done for the ben
efit of humanity.
These stamps can b:- placed any
where it hat the purchasers w.ih to
place them, except on the front of
envelopes sent by mail. This should
not be done. The post office de
partment has ruled that if these
stickers are placed on letters they
must be put on the back of same.
We suppose this is done to avoid
confusing them wUh the postage
stamps White are placed on the
1 1 .n- side.
These seals are sold at a penny a
piece, the proceeds to go for the pur
pose above mentioned. Persons pur
chasing them practically donate the
amount of their purchase but they
have the pleasure ol using the seals,
which is a particularly uppropi jui
thing to do as the Holiday season
approaches.
These seals call be pun based ill
