]Dear Mr, Editor:—
This is the fiftieth year—the semi -
centennial of the Hospital for Si&
Children. It is the Golden Anniver-
sary of an institution which started
out in 1876 with a six -bed equipment
to cure children medically of their ill-
nesses and to rid than surgically of
their diaabilities. Fifty years have
passed and the tiny hospital has
grown into one of the greatest inste
lotions of its kind in the whole world.
The people of this province demand-,
ed this service—and- they have made
it possible by their Christmas Time
gifts. They are rewarded by the
knowledge that thousands of Ontario
children will grow up into manhood or
womanhood blessing , the "little blue
cots" wherein they were restored and
strengthened to play a full part in the
battle of -life.
To win back health for six thousand
boys and girls was the measure of the
Hospital's ward -service alone this
year, Besides that there were over
half a hundred thousand.. attendances'

the less serious cases are treated. All
