And I guess everybody who saw it 'did just that and was heartily wel- comé. For, in truth, that was the ins terition, or part of it. And yet there was but a single word to read, the wore kChristmas--Jul, 'as they still call it where they "speak - Santa Claus' own tongue, 'At least that is | the way it sofinds to me when I think of my child- hood under those northern skies. Ever sirice, the holiday mail from Denmark {has rehearééd'to me that story with the clear intent that I should pass it on. And here it is now, at last. 1 did not mean to-wait-so-long. It was in October, 1904, that a Com- Timittee of Fifteenaget in Copenhagen to devise ways of puffing in practice the idea of a Christmas stamp, adxanced by a postal official, Mr. Holboell. T do not know how 'much of it was original with him. There had been charity stamps be- fore. + They are Sed in Austria, and in Holland whence there came recently a wail : ple to buy them for stamp 'colléctions. And 1 know that they were considered in Germany, but for some reason, 1 believe, did not find favor. - 1 think I can guess the reason. They didnt have the Tight spokesman: It remained for Hans Christian Ander- sens countrymen to enlist Santa Claus. With hinr a8 their champiofi they -don't Bl | have to ask anybody to buy the stamps in Denmark. Their only trouble is how to print enough. « The people, the king, and "thie post office think of nothing else than how they can best help along the cause. 2 This was the upshot of the 'commut- tee's work: that two million stamps were to be printed, and sold through the post offices at two oere each (about half a pent) during the Christmas seasqn----to exact, from December 9 to January 6-- the procecds to be used in building a hospital for tubercular children, some: The government stipulated only that the stamps should. be different in size an shape from the ordinary postage stamps, <0 as to be easily distinguishable from them. The Christmas stamp. is not for postage; every other way it is good for the man who buys it and puts on his letter; for thé clerk who cancels. it with a glad thought for the little waifs with every whack; for the postman wha delivers the letter with a smile as broad and as good as Christmas itself. The proof that they like it is this: that they refused to a man to take anything for their work. In the plan of the commit- tee there was provided a small 'profit of 1&1 oere on each sheet of fifty stamps, , for the local post offices, but it was re- fused. They all wanted to, help. I'he newspapers joined hands; that was another part of the plan. Posters ing of it were put up everywhere, Menmark is a small country, and a thing gets quickly 'to he talked of from one end of it ta the other. There was a run on the post office as soon as the stamps were out. - The two million became four, then six. Business houses asked the privilege of retailing the stamps; but that was refused. They were told to buy them at the post offices, and they did. Many twmjiness houses let no letter or kage pass out in the holiday season without the Christmas stamp. The exe- cutive committee of four that was ap- pointed to manage things had their hands full giving out stamps. They were %ot allowed to give out much else. Labor, office rent, furnittire--everything outside of the actual printing of the stamps--was given 10 them. When it whs all over, 1t was shown that 4,113,000 stamps had been sold and paid for--- about two for every man, woman, and child in the country.: The children's hospital had to its account in the sgvs anes, bank 68,000 kroner throtgh this penny subscription. a That was the first year's showing, when the matter had been talked of only pa month or two. 'I saw in the Danish papers that last year's receipts--the third season's--were nearly four times as big. The hospital is built, 1 suppose, by this | time, or under way, and ou} of a small heginning has grown a gfeat benefaction, But that 1 not the greagest thing about it, to my mind. The thought itself, with iteZpower of getting everybody to think- hrighted through everybody's thinking of it, deserves that place. What else is the tuberculosis scourge than such a wrong? Nothing in all the world is better proven to-day than that it is a preventable dis- ease, and therefore needless. And yet in our own country, to bring the matter Nome, it goes on year after year killing an army of one hundred and fifty thous- and persons, and desolating countless homes in which half a million men and women are always wearily di i themselves to graves dug by this single enemy. Perhaps 1 feel strongly about it; and no wonder. It killed six of my brothers, and I guess I know. That was in the days when there wis no help for it. There is now.
