SUMMARY OF HOSPITAL WORK
The following is a brief summary
of a review of the work of the Wing -
barn General Hospital giveat, by Dr,
'Redmond to the congregation' of the
Wingham Methodist Church, on Stu -
day -morning last
The Wingham Geaeral Frospital
was started about, 15 years ago by a
mitnber of interested citizens sub-
scribing to a fund to purchase the
present blinding, renovate and equip
it with suitable furnishings for hos-
pital work at a cost of something ov-
,er $6000. It 'was started as 'a stock
company because IL seemed easier to
secure subscriptions in, that way and
.4)-ceause the 111011 felt that after put-
' brig their money into it they would
like to have control of it for a few
years, until it got well started and
secured the full cofidence of the pub-
" lie, but the directors and stockholdc-
ers have never received one cent of
rettrns, either as dividends or in any
, other way, nor was it ever intended
that they should receiv-c anything
They have given freely of their time
and money and have taken a keen:
interestt in its growth and snccess
-because they tvere large enough in
heart tand mind to tvish to bring to the
sick people of Winghain and the sur-
, rounding ,tlistrict the best treatment
that medical science can provide, at
a minimum .of costand 'right at h,orne
among their friends. About five
years ago a new wing was added, at
a cost of $7000 to provide additional
rootn and proper sleeping accommo-
dation for the nurses in training.
Two lots at the rear of the building
were presented by the late Dr. Ken-
nedy, arid one was purchaactd by the
Board tO provide a vegetable ga.rden,
Numerons donations were rnade to
the 1-Iosanta1 by friends, chiefly in the
some day. 1 nane„the girruls ay
