Tt is because Christmas ts the children's particular feast that the National Asso- ciation for the Study and’ Prevention of Tuberculosis is asking the public at this time to think of the little ones, the pri- mary sufferers from tuberculosis, who will benefit by, the sale of Red Cross Christ- mas seals, These youngsters are not like the sturdy boys and girls whom we associate with Christmas and who push their way through holiday crowds and stand witb noses pressed against toy shop windows, Many of them are wrecks of childhood. They are underfed and underdeveloped. They have not the stamina that belongs to childhood. They have all the ear- marks of disease. There are thousands ef them in this country, products of poverty and bad housing conditions, Many-~of them are No. 1.—A Roomy Porch for the Runabouts, - No. 2.—An Open ‘ir Ward. ——— Children Chief Victims of Tuberculosis—Special Hos- pitals Save Many. children of tuberculous parents, If some- thing is not done now to correct the ef- fects of tuberculosis and stay the prog- ress of the disease, the association de- clares, in a few years they will be tossed on the human scrap heap. They will be consigned to general bospitals and poor- houses if they live. If the right thing is done fer them now they will be sent to a children’s hospital or sanatorium, where the disease can be arrested. While they are there they wilt attend open air classes and go on with their studies. They wis get the best medica! care and nursing attention, They will grow fat and rosy from outdoor ex- ercise. play and good food. As tite passes and nature does her work they will become normal again, whole in mind and body und ready to take their places witb other children of their own age. Both sides of the picture are presented by the National Association and the American Red Cross, which are co-oper- ating with hundreds ‘of anti-tuberculosis associations for the success of the Red Cross seal sale, The question they are asking is, “Can any community afford to neglect its tuberculous and anaemic chil- dren when it is within its power to e+ tablish preventoria and sanatoria for their care?” Red Cross seals provide nincty per cent of the financial basis for the educational side of the fight against tuberculosis, an important part of which is the establish- ing of children’s hospitals. By putting on a little extra steam during this fioliday season and increasing the sale of the stickers funds can be raised to’ meet the growing problem of the infected and the border line children, In many communities children’s pa- vilions and sanatoria have been built with funds raised in former years by the sale of Christmas seals. The stickers have been life savers for the children. They have safeguarded them against disease and put them on the road to useful and ‘ef- ficient citizenship. unrest among horsemen who are look- ing ahead into the hazards of racing under war condijions in 1918.
