SHEETS TOO SMALL FOR HIS DESIRES
A big-hearted purchaser of Red Cross Seals in a southern city recently complained because the seals did not come in sheets larger than 100. He had prepared a Christmas package for his daughter and had conceived the idea that he would wrap it entirely in Christmas Seals. As the present was bulky, the sheets of 100 were not sufficient. He solved his problem, however, by pasting several sheets of seals on a large piece of wrapping paper, in which he enclosed his daughter's gift.
