As he went through the stacks of Christmas mall, it occurred to him that if each sender bought a sticker and attached it to each package, the proceeds would aid in fighting tuberculosis and add color to the gifts. He mentioned it to some of his fellow workers. T?.e scheme appealed to them and it was passed along through the office. The clerks discussed it with customers. The idea spread about Copenhagen, and eventually King Christian heard about it.
