Christmas Seals Begun By

d of “in

Danish Postman 50 Yrs. Ago

parts of the world are today

doing their bit to carryout an idea started by one of their number
50 years ago. Some of the postmen will be wearing fur caps while
the frost makes smoke of their breath and others will wear khaki
drill in the sun-scorched south. In a score of countries pdstmen will
deliver Christmas Seals bearing a double-barred cross, thus carry-

ing out the ideal started by one of their

confreres in Denmark,

whose uniform, by the way, was a red coat and black trousers,

The Danish Ss name
Einar Holboell -and™ nobody
knows what child’s plight caused
his mind. to be .on tuberculous
children as he sorted Christmas
mail one night in 1903, Perhaps
as he had gone his rounds that
day he had seen a pale unhappy
face at the window, or maybe it
had been at a frozen pond-side
where he had seen a crippled
child watch his playmates skat-
ing.

Whatever the cause, the post-
man had his mind on the sick and
the TB-children as ne sorted the
mail which arrived in Copenhag-
en from the earth's four corners.

Suddenly he had an inspira-
tion. These letters and parcels
eame from people who wished
others well and took Christmas
@s an opportunity to let them

, know.

Would not people who- were
willing to go to that much trouble
to express good will be glad to
do a little more for the sake of
children with TB, he asked him-
self, Would not people gladly add
a seal to their letters if they
knew ‘the money from the sale

-of the seals would-be used to

help these Jess fortunate ones? ,
It was one of those times when
a man all by himself is called on
to decide. He went home happy
with the prospects of his plan.

out a sort of membership in one
of the most effective crusades
the’ world has ever seen, Half’a
century after Holboell’s inspira-

cording to the World Health Or-
ganization, at least three’ million
deaths and perhaps: as many as

Dr. Balkany reported that the

that these are more common in
