CHRISTMAS SEAL - CANPAIGN OPENS 35 s Church Bells Ring in Sale to| Finance Fight Against Tuberculosis. Church bells the country over this morning at 10 o'clock rang in the an- nual Christmas seal sale to finance the egainst losis. Here, in ad- dition to sounding _of bells, Christmas carols were played on the chimes of the Church of the Epiphany. Among the churches here par- Mclputulig in this national program were old St. John's Episcopal Church at Sixteenth and H streets, Christ Church in Georgetown, St. Albans at the Cathedral, the Garden Memorial Church in Anacostia and the Metropolitan Memorial Methodist Church at John Marshall place and C street. The national bell-ringing service was arranged for the first time in the his- tory of health campaign sponsored by the National Tuberculosis Association and its numerous State and city affili- ates, of which the Washington Associa- tion is one. The idea of having the bells announce the opening of the seal sale grew from the design of the new 1929 deal, which is that of an old-time bell ringer in doublet and hose pulling on a bell rope, Posters Are Distributed. ‘While the bells were ringing here the seal campaign got under way with a city-wide distribution of gay-colored posters and window cards by Boy and Girl Scouts. A troop of the Boy Scouts under the command of Col. E. L. Mat- tice, assistant to the Scout executive, started from the Social Service House at 1022 Eleventh street, headquarters mk of the posters for distribution’ In business section of the city. At the same time a troop of Gitl Scouts left their local headquarters at 1825 M street under direction of Miss Marion L. Barrett, fleld captain. a of Boy Scouts from the sixth division posters for distribution in the northern section of the city. . In New York City the celebration was led by Mayor James E. Walker. Else- where governors of States, mayors of cities and-other important ‘personages participated in the celebration. 500,000 Workers in Field. ‘The campaign in this, the twenty-second amnual seal sale, is to be conducted by 1,400 State and local tuberculosis associations, and in addition 15,000 special committees, covering every crossroads and hamlet with an army of workers estimated to be more than 500,000. The sale is Sponso throughout the country by the National Tuberculosis Association. Dr. Kendall Emerson, managing di- was assembled at the of the sale: “While the Christmas seal sale has provided funds for the or- ganized war on tuberculosis, helping to lower the death rate from this disease so that today it is only one-third what it was 25 years ago, this encouraging progress must not lull us into a mis- taken feeling that the battle has been won. ‘Today tuberculosis still kills more people between the ages of 18 and 40 than any other disease. Unfortunately its principal attack is made upon young men and women, who are the greatest economic and social assets the Nation possesses. i FUMES OVERCOME FOUR. | Pedestrians Affected When Los An- geles Ammonia Pipe Breaks.

NEW YORK (N.ANA)—It is a| pathetic fact that on some blocks the householders employ private protec- tion against the noise of children play- ing in the streets. Not their children, of course, Their children are not per- mitted to play in the streets. It's the youngsters of the tenements, ‘These youngsters, of course, do make an unnecessary amount of noise. They are creatures of environment, and they repeat the oaths they hear their fa- thers use. “There are more than 1,000,000 chil- dren let loose at 3 p.m. in New York City,” runs one complaint. “Roller skates are noisy .and every ‘child screams at the top of his lungs. When itely asked to make less noise the children only scream louder.” “How many failures to mgke the grade,” a mechanical engineer won- ‘are caused indirectly by the din WE PAY OR MORE It is within cally saves i as little ‘as one everyone to earn money, but the one who has it when need- ed is the one who s t—start in the great highways that are filled th cars? The teacher’s job is no sinecure, and when she has to ex- excess enes to make herself eard, to say nothing of preventing disturbance by those who take ad- vantage of the outside noise to make confusion, the value of her instruction must- be- appreciably lessened. When the pupils use so much energy to pene- trate the nolse screen they are bound to_have less for their lessons.” org o oge Responsibility Use Ye_llowdCabs ‘Black nn:l"White Cabs) Owned and Operated by Brown Bros.
