    MANY TO OBSERVE
TUBERCULOSIS DAY
——
Addresses December 3 in the
Schools and Sermons De-
cember 5 in Churches.
Harrisburg, Pa. Tuberculosis
Day iv the schools on December 3 and
Tuberculosis Day in the churches on
* December 5 will be generally observ-
ed throughout Penmsylvania. These
days are in connection with the 1920
gale of Christmas Seals and Health
Bonds, the formal sale of which be-
gins November 29. The same days
will be observed in other tates.
In the schools teachers, principals,
physicians and laymen will give talks
on the nature and treatment of tuber-
culosis and how to prevent the Cisease.
In some places it will be made the
occasion for the dist ibuticn of Seals
to school children take to their
families or to sell. In the churches
on December 5 many pastors will de-
vote all or part of a sermon to the
question of health and particularly
tuberculosis. In many Sunday schools
a little time will likewise be given to
presenting this subject. In some
churches and Sunday Schools lay-
men and physicians will speak in ad-
dition to pastors and superintendents.
Gifford Pinchot, State Commissioner
of Forestry, who is Chairman of the
State Christmas Seal Sale Committee,
made this statement:
Many states, in connection with the
1920 sale of tuberculosis Christmas
Seals and Health Bonds, will observe
Friday, December 3, as tuberculosis
day in the schools, and sunday, De
cember 5, as tuberculosis day in the
churches. 1 should like to see Penn-
lvania’s schools and churches use
ee days for emphasizing the fact
that the White Plague is still a seri-
ous Ienace.
The steady drop in the death rate
from tuberculosis in Pennsylvania
(from 150.9 per 100,000 population in
1906 to 117 in 1919) appears to bear
a direct relation to the progress made
in bringing to the public the fact that
tuberculosis is a preventable disease.
The messages on the 1920 Seal—
“Merry Christmas” and “Healthy New
Year’—call for plenty of time in the
fresh air and sunshine of the out-
doors, the eating of wholesome food
and the taking of plenty of rest. These
are the simple but effective remedies
against tuberculosis, It will mean much
for the public health if these simple
lessons are brought to the attention of
everybody or on these two days.
BIG ALE OF HEALYH BONDS
A large advance ual. of Health
Bonds has already been made. Health
Bonds run in denomination as fol-
lows: Sh, $10, $25, $5¢, Ou, $500 and
$1000. Many persons and organiza-
tions that do not have use ior a large
number of Christmas Seals and want
to help their local tb losis com-
mittee buy these Bonds.
The .lealth Bond sale in Pennsy:-
vania was opened on Nev :r.ber 10 in
Harrisburg when Governor Sproul
auctioned off three Bonds or tne steps
of the capitol. These ¥3 onds sold
for $75 each and the purciasers were
E. J. Stackpole, of TIarrisburg; Gif-
ford Pinchot and the Governor.
The first $100 Bond was bought py
Senator P. F. Joyce, of Luzerne.
Many Tuberculosis Christmas Seals
have also been disposad of before the
formal opening of the sale. In Schuyl-
kill county the following organiza-
tions bought Seals in November: In-
dependent Order of Odd Fellows,
Loyal Order of Moose, Patriotic Order
Sons of America, United .aine Work-
ers of America, Order ° Independent
Americans, Masons, Order of Red
Men, Daughters of Pocohontas, Mer-
chants’ Association, Rotary Club, Mu-
sicians’ Union, Schuylkill County
Motor Club anc State Pelice.

HEALTH CRUSADE
IN SCHOOLS BIG
HELP TO CHILDREN
The Modern Health Crusade, a sys-
tem of practical healti. astruction
which is being carried on in the
schools of Pennsylvanic. by tubercu-
losis committees, is doing much to
make healthier children in Pennsyl-
vanian. Many teachers quickly see a
great improvement in the cleanliness
and physical appearaace of children
after they start observing the simple
health rules under the Crusade.
Last year these were over two hun-
dred thousand childr ia the schools
enrolled in the Crusace. An even
larger number are Crusaders this
year.
The Crusade is financed
through Christmas Seals.

Emperor's Splendid Tomb.
The body of Napoleon III lies in a
tomb in the church of St. Michael at
Farnborough, England. This chapel
was built by ex-Empress Eugenie as a
memorial to her husband. In the crypt
also is placed the tomb of her son, the
Prince Imperial, who was killed while
fighting with the English army in Zulu-
land. The church is a magnificent
building of white stone, and stands on
the brow of a hill. It is surmounted
by a tower and pinnacled with dozens
of small shafts. The empress used to
visit the chapel daily. Ten pries(s
were constantly employed by her to
say masses for the dead.

“How you can stand your wife's

Refrigeration
and Meat
In less than an hour after an
animal is dispatched in a Swift &
Company packing plant, itis hanging
up as meat in a room brought by
refrigerating machinery to a tem-
perature just above freezing.
From that time until it is in your
own ice box—within two to three
packing plants; next on our refrig-
erator cars, more than 6,000 of which
are constantly moving to market
with their perishable cargoes; then
in our refrigerator rooms at our
branch selling houses; then in your
dealer’s ice box, and last in your own.
Only for the few minutes while
it is being put into the refrigerator
cars at our packing plants, or taken
out of them at our branch houses,
or whisked to your retailer in our
trucks, is it exposed to any change
Without a skilled use of this sys-
tem of cooling, made possible by
modern science, you could not get
fresh meat, prepared under most
sanitary conditions, except at greater
live so near live stock raising centers
that your needs could be supplied
from live stock raised near-by.

Why You Should Make aWill
To protect your loved ones.
To safeguard your estate.
By making a Will you can appoint the Bellefonte Trust
Company as your Executor or Trustee.
You can thus assure to your heirs the business manage-
ment and financial responsibility which this institution affords.
Your wishes can be observed in the distribution of your
property, for if you do not leave a Will the law may divide up
your possessions in a way that you might not desire.
How Have You Made Your Will?
Do not write your own Will. “Home-made” Wills are
dangerous and often cause law-suits, because, when drawing a
Will the law must be known, both as to wording and terms.
Consult a lawyer today about the making of your Will and have
him name the Bellefonte Trust Company to act as your Execu-
tor and Trustee.
