It happens to be the beginning of a real life story. Mat of Baby "X", Our story opens in the Emergency Ward at the Hospital for Sick Chil- dren late one evening not so long cd their care. 414 of the 482 cots are in Public Wards where the cost per patient last year was appe,oti- mately $1.50 per day more than the combined income from patients (or their municipalities) plus the Gov- ernment grant. Children of tender age must have tgo. individual care. This, together with Suddenly, from the gathering duskspecial diets, medicines, orthopaedic appliances, physiotherapy, and many other items essential in medical cases, are costly expenditures not covered by Government or Municipal vents. WHEN EMERGENCY THREATENS -)utside, there appeared a wen -dress- ed man. In his arms he held a baby, carefully wrapped in a blanket. At once the nurses and doctor on duty sprang into action.... Brief ex- amination showed ed the child to be >uffering from a spinal injury. The strange part of the story is, that when the doctor turned to ques- tion the supposed father of the child, he could not be found. Quietly he had come, and as quietly had gone away. At the time there was no way of knowing to whom the baby belong- ed, so pending investigation, the lit- Ite patient went on the Hospital register as Baby X. NO CHILD KNOCKS IN VAIN However, this incident was really nothing new in the history of the Hospital for Sick Children, whose doors have never been closed since the day they first opened nearly 70 years ago. During all those years no child bas ever knocked there in vain. All who are in need are cared for and nursed back to health. No dis- tinction is ever made. Regardless of race, creed or the ability of parents to pay, children are given medical aid and nursing care. Accident cases, children with de- formed backs and limbs, defective eyesight, rare diseases and physical disabilities are nursed baek to health. At all times the Hospital must be kept fully staffed; equipped and ready to cope with any emergency. It is a serious matter if immediate attention cannot be given to acci- dent cases. And prompt aid must also be available for children with • deformed backs and limbs, with de- fective eyesight, and with rare dis- eases. If it is not forthcoming, per- manent disfigurement, deformity or chronic disease all too often result, Fourteen days is the average stay in the HospitaL But unfortunately, there are many patients who must receive medical treatment and nurs- ing care for weeks; sometimes for months, and in some cases for years. THERE IS NO OTHER WAY AMONG THE BEST No matter where you may search on the North American Continent you will not find any hospital of similar type with a better record o f low coot operation, or with a high- er standard of efficiency. This fact is well tosown and fully recognized In the hospital world today. There are over eighty physicians and surgeons on the staff of the Hospital for Sick Child,en, all of them leading specialists in child aa- *lents. These men give their services free to all public ward patients. NOT SELF-SUPPORTING The Hospital is not self-supporting and the reason for this is not hard to find. Only 5% of the Hospital's little tatients are able to pay the full cost These are' the reasons why, each year about this time the Hospital must appeal for funds to meet oper- ating losses, and to carry on its vital and important work. There is no other way. Were it not for the generosity of sympathetic and understanding people, business organizations, societies, clubs. etc., the work of the Hospital could not be maintained on its present scale, This year $115,000 must be raised. Because of the fact that patients are admitted from every part of the Proviinoe, the Hospital does not share -15s the funds collected through Toronto's United Welfare Chest appeal. Therefore it must make its own appeal, and it does so, confident in the knowledge that generous and understanding people will come to the aid of little children who de- pend on them—and them only—for a chance for health, a chance to take their place in the years to come, as members of a prosperous and indus- trious society.
