m^i "THE OLD GRAY" Ka^*1'4 . By E. Philip Ellis E Tu CHRISTMAS SEALS t . vj The time has come, when the people of America, are expected -- .v to purchase Christmas Seals. 1 I ?? have been a member of the State \ Committee for over ten years, as- I sociated with Prof. John P. Burr~. ^ gess of State College, Orange* " burg and Prof. C. A. Johnson of . ?'> Columbia, treasurer of this fund, f , We jneet once a year, with repre aentatives of the White people. t <ll And I am prepared to say that ~ . v there is no better money spent in f America, than that coming from L_ ?i-i. Christmas Seals. Every Negro in '' America together with every | -h?ehurch, should purchase from five to twenty dollars worth of these 1 Stamps. Tis true we have stamps sold for Crippled Children and ' - *A other stamps for the NAACP, buti Christmas Seals Stamps save the nation from death. And I'm sure ( that to rescue one from dying is Number One of all the stamps'. > s Dr. H. H. Butler has been named to head the State Committee and *;.. Rev. S. B. Mackey of Charleston has heen selected chairman of. " 1 this city. And in the midst of these raging wars, people must ! i be saved from tuberculosis. So let all of us make one all together pull in the interest of Christ~ mas Seal Stamps for 1943. REV. J? W. CURRY : .
