Christmas Seal
Sales Combat
Tuberculosis
I
: " For the third time since the
! first tuberculosis Christmas Seals
j were sold in 1907, two double
barred crosses appear on this
year’s seal. The 1919 and 1923
issues had two red, double-barr
ed crosses.
“This red cross with two bars
is used the world over as the sym
bol of the tuberculosis crusade,”
explained Harry Watson, Presi
dent of the Alaska Tuberculosis
Association. “In a standardized
form it is the trademark of the
National Tuberculosis Associa
tion and its 1,500 affiliated assoc
iations throughout the country.
“In 1902, two years before the
National Tub rculosis Associa
tion was founded, Dr. G. Ser
siron of Paris, at a tuberculosis
conference held in Berlin, pro
posed that the double-barred
j red cross be adopted as the in
ternational emblem of tb anti
| tuberculosis movement. As a sign
i of victory for the Crusaders in
the 11th to the 14th centuries,
this cross had always been an in
signia for courage, high ideals,
and a desire to make tba world
better. It semeed fitting, there
fore, to adopt it as the emblem
for the tuberculosis campaign
whose desire it is to bring about
a healthy world-—one from which
tuberculosis some day must be
banished.
“In our country,’’ said Mr. Wat
son, “the double-barred cross is
used all through the year on post
ers, phamplets, periodicals and
other educational material dis
tributed by the tuberculosis as
sociations. At this season espec
ially, everybody has a chance to
become acquainted with the
world-wide symbol. It is appear
ing in double measure on the mil
lions of Christmas Seals that are
sold between Thansgiving and
Christmas to support the nation
wide education tuberculosis cam
paign.”
