And every time I think of her, I remember one of her favourite sayings: "Early sow — Early mow”. Many years have passed since Grandma died. But just the other day something happened to remind me of that old motto of hers. I was working over my budget, trying not to admit what the figures told me: My savings had slipped. At this rate, it was a cinch that some of the things I’d started to save for would have to watt. Suddenly I remembered "Early sow ...” "Old-fashioned stuff!” I told myself. Then I got to thinking. “Maybe it is tough to save today. But it’s still important . . . still my only hope of getting some of the things I want most. "Well, at least I’m keeping up my life insurance payments,” I thought. “That's a way of saving which combines protection for my family as well. And maybe if I make an extra effort to put more money aside I’ll reach my goals sooner. "So here goes! I’ll try again. I’ll find some new ways to economize. Somehow I’m sure I can manage to be more thrifty.” And you know — it’s a funny thing! The moment I made that decision, I realized that Grandma’s idea was not old-fashioned. I’ve just caught up with her now!

This marked the opening of the campaign in our district and also is a reminder to you of your part in stamping out this dread disease. A Weapon For Defence Christmas Seals are your weapon to defend yourself, your family and your community against tuberculosis. The contributions you make are spent in Huron Coun ty to find new cases of this disease and thereby pre vent its spread to others. During 1950, twenty new cases of tuberculosis were discovered in this county, the greatest number since 1943.

Give as much as you can. (2) Make sure you and your family have chest X- rays whenever the mobile X-ray clinic visits your community. (A mass X-ray survey of County is now being organized for summer of 1952.) (3) Use Christmas Seals on all your mail, your friends their help is needed too.
