RED CROSS SEAL CAMPAIGN.
The date for beginning the Red Cross Seal Campaign has been advanced from November 15th to November 5th.
Dr. I. J. Murphy of the Minnesota Public Health association, state manager, announces the following messages just received:
"The American Red Cross waives the restriction in the contract that no agent put seals on sales before November 5th.
"We understand that mail to reach the soldiers in France before Christmas must be mailed not later than November 15th and preferably at an earlier date. The advantage of allowing an early sale of Red Cross Seals by local campaign managers for packages going to our soldiers is obvious.
Accordingly the American Red Cross waives the restriction in the contract which made November 15th the opening day, providing Red Cross Seals be not placed on sale before November 5th."
