HOSPITAL AUXILIARY
HAS SUCCESSFUL YEAR
This Organization Does Much Need
ed Work at the Hospital.
• The Women’s Auxiliary to the
Wingham General Hospital have
closed a very successful year under
the presidency of iMrs. J. W. McKib-
bon with Miss Sara MacLean, con
venor of the Social Committee. The
auxiliary has a membership of 45 and
hold themselves responsible for pro
viding, mainly, the inside furnishings
of the hospital, such as bedding; dish
es, curtains, etc. For this purpose,
during the year they expended over
$300. The .money is raised in various
ways, bridge parties, rummage sale,
teas, etc. They were also given a
night at the Lyceum Theatre and a
donation from the Ministerial Assoc-
iation.| Two showers were held for
linens,. china, etc. and were well at
tended. In the fall a collection of
fruit was made resulting in 350 jars
of fruit :and pickles being taken to
the' hospital besides quantities of
fresh fruit and vegetables. There
have also been generous donations of
useful .articles and food from’the peo
ple of the community. The sewing
committee meets at'the Hospital ev
ery month and does all the mending
and making up of new materials. At
the beginning of the year an invent
ory is made .of all supplies.
During the current year the hos
pital tabulation shows: 304 admis
sions, -67 births,, 13 deaths and 68 pa
tients for X-ray :and emergency treat
ments.
The Auxiliary extends their thanks
to all who have given donations and
helped in any way toward the success
of their work during the year. They
also ask for the increased interest of
every 'citizen of the town and district
for the coming year. A small town
hospital is something the community
armed with rifles, have been reported,
but are seldom seen in action. Jap-1
anesc General Selshi.ro Itagaki has
admitted that Sino-Japanese hostilit
ies are “just starting?’
O
cannot well do without and Wingham
General Hospital is an institution of
which everyone should be proud.
