Pharmacist In Charge S & H Green T Inch-Square Bits of Paper Save Lives By State of Nebraska Department of Health The germs tnat cause tuber culosis are disappearing under a swarm of Christmas seals, thanks to your donation and your neighbor's. This little inch-square piece of colored paper has helped save millions of lives. It all be gan in Denmark, back In 1903, on Christmas Eve, when a weary Danish post office clerk, Einar Holboell, saw two shivering coughing, poorly dressed chil dren out in the snow. The Idea of a stamp to raise money to help sick people came into his mind, a stamp to be offered at Christmas time when people's heart's are open. Mr. Hol'ooell took his idea to the king, who approved of it, so the next Christmas time the first seals went on sale at a half cent each. The Danes bought 3,350,000 of them, or one for every per son In the country, and the first money from this source was on hand to open the battle a gainst tuberculosis. Danes naturally sent letters to friends in other lands, and the seal caught the fancy of people all over the world. The seal sale first came to the United States in 1907, when a determined group of women volunteers opened the drive, selling them for a penny each. The seal was designed by Emily Bissell, a simple garland of holly around a red cross, and the words Merry Christmas. The purpose of this sale was to raise money to help keep in operation an open-air tubercu losis shack which was about to clore for lack of finances. Unless money could be secur ed, its eight patients would have to leave, and lose their chance of recovery. The goal was $300.00. W;th the support of the leading newspaper in Philadelphia, the "North Amer ica," the 1907 drive brought $3000.00. In 1950 the drive collected $21,000,000.00. From an unknown menace, tuberculosis has become a well underrtood disease. From a pub lic terror, it is now a disease that can be discovered early, and fought. All the work of the tuberculosis associations is sup ported from the sale of the Christmas seals. Of the total raised, a high percentage remains in the state where the seals were sold, and the rest is allocated to the na tional fund. Tuberculosis can and will be eradicated if people continue to support the campaign against it.
