HOSPITAL TO BENEFIT BY THE ACTIVITIES
OF THE WINGHAM CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

being performed on a child whose
parents were unable to pay the cost
The child was prevented from becom-
ing permanently deaf. Along with
these activities three self supporting
luncheons ' were held, providing a
means for greater fellowship among
our business men and an opportunity
for many new -comers to town to get
better acquainted.
In a day when the eyes of the busi-
ness world are turned on method's of
reducing the cost of operation it is
pleasant to know that many instittr
tions serving the public with no self-
ish end in view, have also given con-
siderable thought to the subject,
Our. Winghani'General Hospital is
no exception. For many years the
kitchen has been served by a hotel
type, coal burning range, which be-
cause of the varied requirements of
a hospital had to be kept going, full
force, day and night, the year round.
—With the present cost of 'coal, the
operation on of this

,both, .uneconomical and undesirable,
because of its heavy consumption of

code,:al and; the unnecessary heat it pro
As an economy measure the Hos-
pital Board installed a forced draft
fuelling system for the Hospital heat-
ing. This made possible the use of a
cheaper grade of coal and provided
sufficient heat to take care of the
whole building. No longer was the
kitchen range a necessity for heatin
the kitchen in the winter months, a
extension of the heating system
would meet this need. The Board ori
nvestigation found out that it could
operate electric cooking equipmen
and dispense with the costly coal
urning range at a big saving. No
only was this the case but the hospi-
al being a heavy consumer of elec-
ric energy for various other electric
ervices now installed, could cone -
mend power for cooking at a very
heap rate.
The big problem of the Board was

Having spent all their available ini-
rovements funds in remodelling the
eating system, how were they to
meet the further necessity of paying
he, cost of equipment and installa-

of the County was held in the Agri-
cultural Office, Clinton, on Saturday
afternoon, April 25th, at which a
County Livestock Improvemen t As-
sociation was formed. About seven-
ty livestock men and other interested

stock- Branch. Mr, Wade answered a
number of questions relative to diff-
erent phases of the L' t kid

try and also explained the conditions
on which the 20% bonuses were paid
to farmers who purchase a pure-bred
bull for the first time.
One director was appointed from
each of the sixteen townships and a
executive body of five chosen fror
among the sixteen directors. The fol
lowing men constitute the executive
passed official inspection. Any far-
mers who would' be in line for this
bonus should get in touch at once
with their Township Director or
write direct to the Secretary, Ian

ium of the Livestock Improvement
Association, some good work may be
accomplished in the improvement of
livestock and the Association will ap-
preciate the support and co-operation
of all livestock men and other inter-
ested men in the County.
