This short, scrawled note was accompanied by three worn dollars bills. Comments like this one furnish "he reason why the 1970 Christmas Seal campaign is running $8,200 ahead of the 1969 campaign at the same time last year. According to Lyman F. Smart, President of the Utah Tuberculosis and Health Association, the 1970 campaign is now at 60 per cent of its $75,000 goal. Mr. Smart said, Many messages are received with contributions encouraging our work on programs of air pollution and prevention of tuberculosis and emphysema." Ninety two percent of the contributions received by the Utah Association are used in the state to further public and medical education programs, to conduct research on new methods of treatment and rehabilitation, to conduct selfcare classes for those with emphysema and bronchitis and to prevent respiratory disease and its costly results. Eight per cent contributed in Utah of the funds is sent to the National Tuberculosis and Respiratory Disease Association for nationwide research and educational programs. As a matter of fact, we receive more national funds in Utah to help us in our projects than we send as our share Mr. of the national program, said.
