The Hospital for Sick Children
TORONTO
War Laid Heavy Hand on Children's
Charity. -
Dear Mr. Editor:—
The annual report of the Hospital
for Sick Children, Toronto, marks a
new record, despite the heavy handi-
cap the war placed upon its. work.
The task of ministering to the suf-
fering youngsters of this province was
no light one in view of the Hospital's
splendid response' to the national call
25 doctors and 48 nurses from its
lerces have seen service overseas.
Yet tko number of patients treated
Is 6,048, or 1108 more than last year.
Of these in -patients, 769 were from
266 places outside of Toronto.
The tireless efforts of the staff
made possible also a reduction In the
average length of stay nc-,eesary for
the little valiant% from, 04 drys le
1914 to 14 this year:
These results show th>t the Hos.
pital has again pale to the children
rich dividends of health upon the Ir•
vested kindness of its supporle, 1.
There has been careful stewardship
of the funds entrusted to the Hc,apltal.
There has been saving—almost scrimp
ing—In every direction except where
It would prevent tbe Hospital's sooth
Ing the suffering or shortening the
sickness of one child. The daily cost
of operation was held at the lowest
point which would still allow the
children entrueted to the Hospital to
get the beat medicine and the best 01
care,
And yet so high has risen the cost 01
every Item in the Hospital's budget—in
. labor, in fuel, in food, and, above all.
in medical supplies—that the mini
expense of taking mm exp care of one
ahtld for one day has risen from -$2.84
back In 1914 to $3.21% in 1918. Or
that, $1.66%—the amount per patient
per day that the official Government
grants do not cover—must come• from
voluntary, contrlbntlone.
During the past four yearsdebts
were incurred to the extent of $100,
000, which the Trustees telt assured
would: be wiped out by the public es
soon as the war drew to its close, and
those heavy demands cease which
have been made upon the generosity
of the loyal people of this province
The time has now come when it is ne-
ceseary to make kn.Witi the Hospital's
dire need.,, of financial assistance, .
If HAS '48rd Chatetmas appeal fails
to rally the friends of this Charity to
IS support, it will le necessary to
mortgage its land, buildings and plant.
