TB bonds, in denomination of $5 and $10 were mailed out to residents of the county, and the sale of seals will begin shortly, Miss Wood said, The campaign will come to a close on December 25, Sheets of the .1952 Christmas Seal feature the double-barred cross and a glowing candle in an old-fashioned brass candleholder, Miss Wood said. The red double barred cross is the registered insignia of the National Tuberculosis Association and its 3,000 affiliates, and it is also the inter national symbol of the modern cam paign against tuberculosis. " Since the early part of this cen tury the cross has served as emblem under which the voluntary associa tions have fought the spread oi tu berculosis in communities throughout the nation, a fighfc largely financed by the American people .themselves through the annual purchasen of Christmas Seals, Miss Wood pointed out. The international insignia of the fight against tuberculosis is an adap tation of the historic Cross of Lor raise. he emblem, of the Dukes of Lorraine, , France, under which the First Crusade was carried out. The doublebarred cross was adopted as the emblem of the modern crusadt against tuberculosis on October 23, 1902, dur ing the first organized international conference on tuberculosis in Berlin, Germany. Twenty nations, including the United States, were represented at the conference. : i . tt i " tr 1, Overton-Baker Vows Spoken Sunday At Federal Tax Forms Mailed To Taxpayers Federal taxpayers of Perouimans County on Monday, received their in come tax forms and instructions for filing these forms.
