The IMS Clirlstmng seal sale has passed the thousand dollar mark, Mrs. Frank Chambers, chairman, reported Wedncsduy morning. The goal net for La lie county is five cents per capita, or over Jf-7J0. .Many who received Ken Is in the mail have not yet returned them or paid for Ihi'm. The bale in the public schools of Ktigeuc is still on, with no official report on its success turned in to hadiuarters as yet. Approxi mately half of the county schools have sold all the seals possible and re ported. Most of the health centers have not made complete returns. There are still a lew campus living organizations which have not sent in their contributions. There is still a seal sale booth at the jmstoffice. Self sellers are on duty at the Coe Sta tionery company "at the sign of the Lorraine croBS," at McMorran and Wasliburne's, the postoffice, and the Iloffmnn hotel. It is on these remain ing sources that the Lnne County Public Health association seal sale committee is pinning its hopes for j.t tiiinmeut of its aim before Christmas. At the end of the first week, over $400 had been turned In. The seco: d week's receipts brought the total to $1100. Now at the cud of the third week, with Christmas less than a week away, the amount Is but $1000. If the goal of $l!7(X) is reached, neorly twice as much money must bo turned in this week ns during tho first throe weeks of the sale nil together.

It causes one out of every five deaths of persons between 15 nnd 40, the most productive years of life, and one out of every three dentin, of women between 13 uud 30.
