Jasper County Democrat, Volume 15, Number 70, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 4 December 1912 — RED CROSS CHRISTMAS SEALS [ARTICLE]

RED CROSS CHRISTMAS SEALS

Every Seal Used is a Bullet Fired in The Warfare Against the White Plague. The Red Cross Christmas Seal is small in size but great in power against the white plague in Indiana. The Christmas seal does not pay postage on a letter or Christmas fiackage. • It is a bright little “sticker” used to carny a holiday greeting from one person to another. It can be used on letters or packages going by mail, by express, or by personal messenger. It should be placed on the back of the envelope where it can be used as a seal.

When- you buy a Seal three results are accomplished. You contribute a 'penny to the Red Cross White'Plague Fund; the person who gets the seal from you receives a cheerful holiday greeting; the penny will help some victim of tuberculosis in his fight for life.

The plan of the State Association for the Christmas season of 1912 is to supply county assaciations with the Red Cross Christmas Seals and advertising matter to increase the sales. Each county association is to sell the seals and keep seventy-five per cent to be turned over to the State Association. This twenty-five per cent will be used for paying the printing bills and other expenses, and to carry on in 1913 a campaign of education that will enable the people to protect themselves against the Great White Plague. This is a nation-wide movement. Jasper county has a local organization, and also this township. Mts. A. A. Fell is President of the township organization. Any desiring the seals may call Mrs. Fell, or get them at any of the three drug stores. Sale Bills printed while you wait at The Democrat office. Come in.
