Ring in Health In the olden days anyone could be | a bell ringer. Sometimes a citizen had to pay for the privilege; if he abused the honor he had to pay a fine. In All Saints’ Church, at Hastings, Eng- land, these words may still be seen: “This is a belfry that is free For all those that civil be, And if you please to chime or ring It is a very pleasant thing.” All through history since the 16th century, which wag the golden age | of bells, chimes have called out to | people their cheerful messages, usu- | ally telling a story. For example, with the passing of the old year the bells were tolled in sadness, then, when midnight had struck, the merry peals clanged forth their welcome to the new year. Before the invention of the newspaper the town crier focused the attention of the people by lustily clanging a bell before he | shouted the important news it was his duty to spread throughout the city. Since bells have so often served to proclaim victory it is not surpris- ing to find that the design of the mod- ern cup presented as a token of viec- doy in sport is in reality an inverted IL It is equally fitting that on the gay little Christmas Seal for 1929 a bell ringer should be portrayed tugging at a heavy bell, announcing once again to the nation that further ad- vances have been made against the enemy tuberculosis. Each year the Seal brings its message of health at the Christmas season to remind peo- ple that sickness can be prevented. . Although the stamps are now well known, they originated in a modest manner only twenty-five years ago as the invention of a Danish postal clerk, who de- vised them to raise money for a The First Christmas Seal tuberculosis hospital for the children of Copenhagen. Miss Emily P. Bis- sell, of Wilmington, Delaware, was the god-mother of the Christmas Seal in this country. She also was seek- ing for a method to raise money for a tuberculosis institution in her state and in 1907 found the solution to her problem in a magazine article de- scribing the Danish seal and its suc- cessful mission. Through her efforts a fund of $3,000 was raised and the project begun. The following year the first nation-wide sale of tubercu- losis Christmas Seals was undertaken, end women’s clubs, religious bodies and busi- ness groups gave their support to this cheerful method of raising money. In 1910 the then young National Tuber- culosis Associa- tion took over the sale of the Seals and has directed it ever since. The Seals therefore should be called tuberculosis Christmas Seals. Thanks to the tiny Seal, state after state has been organized to attack tuberculosis with a scientific program. Through the intensive educational work made possible by the Christmas Seal, health laws have been passed and are being enforced; tuberculosis specialists and nurses reach the most remote country districts; printed mat- ter on disease prevention is circulated in schools, homes and factories, and there is an active public interest in tuberculosis control among civic, po- litical, commercial, social and Tre- ligious groups. This year again the Seal carries its message of health throughout the country, giving everyone a chance to be a bell ringer as in olden days—a proclaimer of the important tidings that health is the best insurance for happiness and that tuberculosis may be cured if discovered in time. The First American Christmas Seal I Am the Christmas Seal I am the Christ- mas Seal, Messenger of happiness, Symbol of serv- ice. I am the highest form of health insurance. I co-operate in all health work. I fight tuberculosis. I safeguard the home. I stand watch over the school. I restore siek children to health. I protect the individual, the family and the public.

Bells Peal Forth Pennsylvania joins other states in the ringing of bells on Friday, No- vember 29, at 10 A. M. to announce the opening of the Christmas Seal sale. Bells were rung in many parts of the State, with as many as 200 ring- ing out a message of health in indi- vidual counties. These included chureh, school, fire and other bells. The 1929 Christmas Seals picture a bell and bell ringer and it was esti- mated that thousands of bells sent forth the message: THE PATTON COURIER Danger in Little Germ Tuberculosis is caused by a germ, the tubercle bacillus, which was dis- covered in 1882 by Dr. Robert Koch. The germs or bacilli are found in the sputum of persons who have the dis- ease. Tuberculosis of the lungs, some- times called consumption, is the most usual form. Whenever a consumptive fails to exercise care in covering his mouth when coughing or sneezing he endangers someone else. Especially is this true in crowded shops, fac- tories, cars and places where people assemble. The careless consumptive who spits on the sidewalks and else- where is providing another means of infecting his neighbor. Young children are especially sus- ceptible to tuberculosis. If a child plays on the floor or sidewalk with objects that have becon : contaminated | by sputum, he may easily carry germs | to his mouth. Children are especially subject to infection of the lymph glands at the root of the lung (called hilum, tracheo-bronchial or juvenile tuber- culosis), which, unless checked, is likely to produce tuberculosis OUR STOCK and YOUR STOCKING should get acquainted Maybe you’ve passed the age of actually hanging up your stocking Christmas eve—but mentally, at least, we all still do it.
