figure was $1425.
Talk of closure of one of the
state's TB hospitals may be re
sponsible for the slackening of
suDnort for the Christmas Seal
sale," states Mrs Dick, "but the
number of cases of TB discovered
each year in Oregon remains
constant, at around buu new
cases. New drugs and treatment
methods shorten the stay of most
victims of this highly contagious
disease in the hospitals, which
explains why the hospitals are
no longer crowded to capacity.
Seal sale money helps locate
new cases and contributes to
ward the research which now
hastens the recovery of patients.
Since most of the money remains
in the county in which it is
raised, Morrow county residents
have placed X-ray equipment In
pioneer Memorial hospital and
receive free X-rays. These X-rays
are useful not only in checking
for TB, but also in the discovery
incidentally of other conditions
requiring medical attention.
Boardman and Irrlgon have ex
ceeded last year's figures in the
seal sale, but Heppner, Lexing
ton, and lone lag in their collec
tions. As of February 1 the following
