Edward A. Hayes. National Commander of the American Legion, Is shorn.
In Legion headquarters, Indianapolis, signing his endorsement of the Christ
mas Seal sale. The campaign Is launched throughout the country on Thanks
giving Day each year by the 2,0M affiliated tuberculosis associations. A cam
paign poster stands on the desk.
INDIJINAPOUS. Pointing out the
"appalling fact" that "one out of
every Ave persons who die between
the ages of fifteen and forty-five is a
victim of tuberculosis,' National
Commander Edward A. Hayes of the
American Legion issued here today
an endo'aement of the nation-wide
Christmas Seal sale, in which ha ex
pressed the "vital interest" of the
Legion In tho work of the tuberculosis
associations and assured a continu
ance of "full cooperation." Christmas
Seals ate the little stamps sold an
nually for. a penny each between
Thanksgiving and Christmas by the
2,084 ami ia tod tuberculosis associa
tions to finance their work. Tho en
dorsement follows:
"The American Legion Is vitally in
terested in the work of the anti
tuberculosis societies, and Is of the
Arm conviction that the campaign car
ried on to prevent the spread of the
disease is one of the greatest humani
tarian movements ever inaugurated in
America. It is really appalling to
consider the facts. One out of every
five persons who die between the ages
of fifteen and forty-five is a victim of
tuberculosis. It ia estimated that we
now have two million children who are
Infected, either active pulmonary tu
berculosis or are potential victims re
quiring special care and treatment.
"In these days of stress and finan
cial limitation, there is grave dangei
that much of the progress that has
been made in the past will be nullified
to a certain extent unless the anti
tuberculosis efforts are continued with
even greater vigor than ever before.
These campaigns and the work car
ried on under the direction of the so-'
cleties have been very largely respon
sible for the reduction of the death
rate from this disease over sixty per
cent during the past twenty-seven
years, and the establishment of cer
tain machinery for prevention and
cure.
'This work must be carried on. ft
must not be permitted to lapso for
want of means. The American Legion
has, throughout the years of its ex
istence, given Its full cooperation
throughout the country and will con
tinue to do so. Its Posts will be active
throughout the month of December
assisting in the sale of the Christmas
Seals, from which funds are derived
to finance the anti-tuberculosis asso
ciations and societies throughout the
United States."
He started, his admissions showed,
with the theft of a saddle from a
Butte Falls barn. He stole five autos
from the streets of Medford. Most
of the cars were found hidden in the
brush near Butte Falls. In several
Instances, the autos were stripped
of tires and tools. Poole denied he
had done this, claiming it was done
by others, who had found the autos
hidden in the woods. Charles A.
Wing, Lee F. Watson and Hubbard
Brothers were among local residents
who had vehicles stolen by P.oole.-

EVERY HOUSEWIFE in this day

advantages of electrical servants. A'
few people do not use electricity as
much as they would like to because
they mistakenly believe it to be ex
pensive. Nothing could be farther
from the truth. Electricity eliminates
waste, extra help . . . removes the ne
cessity for constant cleaning, scrap-

big, redecorating . . .-and in addition
saves the housewife much of her time
in the kitchen. Electricity is as clean
as sunshine and a perfect cook. For
only a few pennies more a day you
can use electricity for all your house
hold tasks. It is the Perfect Servant.
SOMETHING ELECTRICAL is
what every housewife really wants
