Scope and content
Tacoma Girl Scouts and Camp Fire Girls combined forces in November of 1946 to help the Tuberculosis League prepare 55,000 envelopes for the League's Christmas seal drive. The girls placed a sticker on the back of each envelope. This group of unidentified scouts was working in one of the classrooms at Grant School, 1018 North Prospect Street. The woman at the center, accepting a big stack of finished envelopes, is Miss Stella C. Kellogg the executive secretary of the Tuberculosis League of Pierce County. When not putting seals on envelopes, the girls were apparently studying knot tying and Morse code.(T.Times, 11/25, p.2; 11/28/1946, p10)
