Hubbard County Journal: Mrs.
Frank Heisei, who acted as manager
of the Christmas seal sale campaign
last year, has received a letter warn
ing about agents representing the
Children’s National Tuberculosis so
ciety and also representing themselves
as connected with the Minnesota Pub
lic Health association. They have no
connection with the Minnesota Public
Health association and any funds col
lected by them will not be z used in
this state. The city of St. Paul has
twice refused them a license to solicit
funds in that city. A representatives
are now soliciting funds about the
state it would be a good idea to use
some caution as to the society or as
sociation soliciting funds. Be sure it
is the right one.
