ALASKA'S TUBERCULOSIS
CAMPAIGN!
Have you any unfinished busi
ness? You have done only half
the job when you buy tubercul
osis Christmas Seals. To com
plete it, you should use the Seals
and use them early.
There is an important reason
for this.
The Christmas Seal in itself is
a means of education. In the
minds of the public, it has come
to be identified with tubercul
osis. Any one receiving mail to
which is affixed the seal of the
red double-barred cross immed
iately has his attention focused
on this disease. Therefore, the
wider the use of the seals, the
more effectively will the cam
paign attain its purpose of erad
icating tuberculosis.
This year, especially, the de
sign of the Christmas Seal is un
usually attractive. The mother
and her two children in the
charming costumes of the Vic
torian age, the candle-lighting
ceremony and the double-barred
cross of the tuberculosis move
ment combine admirably to make
a charming bit of decoration for
any card or package. And, cer
tainly, they carry to humanity
Christmas greetings of the high
est possible significance.
Any campaign that has as its
purpose the prevention of tuber
culosis should have the backing
of every person in the land. A
visible evidence of this backing
is the appearance of Christmas
Seals on cards, letters and pack
ages throughout the country.
The dramatic accomplishments'
in the fight against this disease
are largely due to the fact that
the Christmas Seal focuses at
least for several weeks out of
the year the attention of all citi
zens on tuberculosis. Today, ev
ery child has five times as good
a chance of escaping the dread
disease as he had thirty years
ago. SI >wly, but surely, tuber
culosis is being pushed back as
our defenses increase against it.
Only by continued and persistent
efforts can the ground gained be
maintained and further advanc
es made. The Christmas Seal
makes this possible.
This year marks the fifth year
that Christmas Seals have been
sold in Alaska—yet we are pro
fiting by all the medical research
and educational work done in
the campaign the past thirty
years.
Christmas Seals are helping to
solve the tuberculosis problem in
Alaska by increasing the work be
ing done to find cases and by
general education of the public.
While we are fairly new en
trants into this war on a com
municable disease, we have every
reason to believe that it will be
as succssful eventually in the
Territory as it has been else
where.
It is a simple act to stick a
Christmas Seal on the back of
a letter or on a package. But, this
act repeated by millions of peo
ple, young and old. in large cit
ies and in country villages means
that the campaign to protect all
homes from tuberculosis is go
ing forward. Do your part!
