Washington reporters seem to think
that the coptest for President next
year will be between McAdoo and
Coolldge.
The Sixty-eighth Congress of the
United States convened Monday at
noon. The" progressives succeeded In
throwing a wrench in organisation
machinery and blocked the organisa
Oon.
The Business Men's Association of
Louiaburg would do well to direct its
efforts toward the estaolishment of
some manufacturing enterprise tor
Louiaburg. An overall factory, a cot
ton mill, a foundry or most any es
tablishment that will employ labor
will be of great benefit to the town.
CHRISTMAS SEAL A HEALTH
BAROMETER
/
In loo kins over the health activi
ties ol the various counties and cities
of North Carolina, it is interesting to
find that the communities that are the
most vigorous In fighting disease and
promoting health within their boun
daries are the ones that have the lar
ger sales of Christmas Seals. These
little health stamps seem to have more
than a fund raising value. They car
ry the Christmas spirit; they educate
for health; they inspire to action.
The interest of the people In an ac
tive health program seems to be
shown by jjhe number of seals they
buy. The^arger the Seal sale In a
county, thi more vigorous la the tu
berculosis campaign that follows ?
not entirely because more funds are
available, but because public Interest
has been aroused through a campaign
that has reached every home.
It might fairly be said that the com
munity that does not sell Its quota of
the Christmas Seals is below par in
the scale of community health. It has
been weighed in the balance and
found wanting. The Christmas Seal
barometer indicates the health ahead
and this Is confirmed by the mortality
and mobldlty statistics which cannot
be disputed.
Mrs. M. S. Clifton, our local chair
man, tells us the Seal Sale was begun
here on Thanksgiving Day. Plans
have been perfected for a large sale
In our town and community, and we
believe the people are going to pur
chase more liberally of the Tubercu
losis Christmas Seals this year than
?ver before.
To Those Who Give at Christmas
This Christmas, which should bring
happiness to every boy and girl. Sods
one In ten children menaced by a dis
ease that may sentence them to year*
of sickness and may even rob them
of their lives.
In the schools and homes of this
city are thousands of children doom
ed to bitterly unhappy years unless
we can reach them quickly. They are
the undernourished children, whose
thin, hollow-chested bodies are fertile
soil for the most dread or all diseases
? tuberculosis.
can prevent this calamity to child
hood. You ho'ld in your hands the
means of buying health for children.
We are selling Christmas Seals that
annually provide money to light tu
berculosis. With thatmoney we can
buy the most precious gift In the
world ? health ? as a holiday offering
to children whose day Christmas real
ly is.
The Seals are -one cent each. Buy
all you can. Each time you put a
Christmas Seal on a letter or package,
you are piling up health for little chil
dren.
Sincerely,
Mrs. M. S. Clifton, Chairman.
Rural homes are lighted, modern
outhouses bnilt, crop yields increas
