contributed $6,034 to the Tuber
culosis association via purchase
of Christmas seals through Tues
day, Mrs. B. M. Jarrett, secre
tary, reported.

nearly $4,000 short of its $10,
000 goal.

tices had been mailed to business
firms which customarily subscrib
ed to the campaign, but had not
in 1956, and that second remind
ers had gone out to individuals
who had neither paid for, nor
returned, Christmas seals.
The association uses its funds
to help operation of the county
mobile X-Ray unit, to provide aid
to indigent tuberculosis patients,
and for education to prevent
tuberculosis.
