I always buy the seals at Christmastide even if I have to go and search for them and this I shall continue to do.” The seal sale managers, it was sald today, have noticed a number of seais returned by those solicited to buy them with the statement that they cannot purchase them this year because of the intention to give to the Community Chest, and it was added the association wishes it _understood by all that this sale of Christmas seals is sanctioned by the Community Chest, of which the ‘Tuberculosis Association is a member and that the proceeds of the Christmas seal sale will go toward the budget of expense for health work as approved by the Community Chest.

People are doing their Christmas buying much earlier than usual in Washington this season. “Every motorist should observe - all driving and safety regulations more carefully during the next three weeks than at any other season of the year.” Maj. Pratt further pointed out that this is the season when greater num- bers of children than normally are on the downtown streets. Most of them are chaperoned by parents or others, but many youngsters are attracted to the downtown stores by the spirit of Christmas and are often without the protection of their elders. Motorists should exercise extreme caution because of this situatfor P id. tion at the January meeting. Complaint was voiced against the street car service rendered the com- munity. After discussion of ways and means of improving the service, in which it was shown that express service to and from the heart of the business section during rush hours would relieve present undesirable features, it was voted to request representatives of the Washington Railway & Electric Co., the Public Utilities Commission and mem-= bers of the House District committce to address the association at a future meeting.
