BEVERLY HAYES
Beverly Hayes -says: "Buy Cross Christinas Se.-iis. They pro;e<-t
? fitt'e children from the ravages of. tuberculosis. They huild a barrier oi
? j ilealtb about the workers of the nation. They protect homes?vour home,
i /?"They spell hope, assurance and ?hysieal and economic rehabilitation t<j
i-xoore than one million people in' the United States who have tubercn
losis. If you purchase enough lied Cross Christmas Seals, the death
?'. rate of this.dread plague will be materially/reduced.
?fLast year 150,000 people felt victims of the disease. Twelve thousand
' ot these were Utile children. Think f it! This death toll is needless. If
j we all do our part In the sale this year, next year's death rate will he sinaii
V. er. It will be ?reduced year by year until eventually tuberculosis has pass
