CUSS HOSPITAL The executive of the- Exeter Cham- ber of •Conuuerce met the ctoetors of town and Mr. C; B. Snell in the sitting room of the Canadian Bank of Commerce on •',cuesday evening to .discuss -the question of re -opening the Exeter hospital. The opinion was freely expressed that consider- ing the large territory surrounding our municipality a well equipped and properly managed institution would not only. prove a benefit in Exeter but the lou nmunity at large. Among the essentials to make such an inetitation cy paying concern is to secure the eco -operation of the medical profession; procure a char- ter; place a trained nurse in charge and install a sterilizing and Kray equipment. It was expressed, that the latter would pay for itself inside of a few years. The medical men present expressed their willingness to co-operate. A deputation was appointed to visit some of time neigh- boring hospitals to secure all avail- able information.
