Christmas Seals Campaign Promotes Health Work
Twenty five million Christmas seals are being distributed across every county as the Nineteenth Annual campaign runs from Thanksgiving to Christmas. Proceeds support local public health associations in child health work, nursing, health education, and clinics, with part aiding the State Association in tuberculosis prevention and broader health efforts. Over nineteen years, the program cut tuberculosis deaths 55 percent and infant mortality 20 percent, while the state’s death rate dropped ten percent. Iowa rose to third lowest tuberculosis death rate, behind Nebraska and Utah. The seal’s color scheme returns to red blue and gold with three minstrel figures heralding a happy Christmas and healthy New Year.
