In this day and age, everything has its value, even cancelled:stamps. A consideyable sum -may be realized by the local Red Cross chapter from the sale of old stamps. Do not tear the stamp itself from rise | the envelope or wrapper, but cut or tear around the stamps, leaving a margin of the paper. Stamps do not have to be assorted, counted or soak- 7| ed from the paper. The price depends upon- the qual- ity o; the mixture. Foreign, or very old $tamps, or those of very high denomination will run much higher than a mixture of current stamps. However, all have value, so bring them in. ‘Mrs. A. C.
