Children Sell Red Cross Seals Across Cities
Children and schools nationwide join the drive to fund tuberculosis relief by selling Red Cross Seals. Examples include a nine year old in Duluth selling 4,500 in four days and a Meriden boy moving 50,000 in three weeks, with many others contributing large totals and school sales boosting the fund. A Los Angeles method uses flagging tardiness by placing a flag outside doors each morning, and top performers gain rewards such as a statue for sustained weekly averages.
