HURON COUNTY TO
HAVE TURNIP CLUB
OFFICIAL OP E N I N G
HELD WEDNESDAY
ON HOSPITAL LAWN
C. J. Telfer, Ontario Inspec-
tor of Hospitals, Offici-
ates At Opening.
The beautiful lawns of Scott Mem-
orial Hospital provided a perfect set-
ting for' the ceremonies marking the
opening of the new 27 -bed wing of
the hospital, Wednesday afternoon.
Those taking part in the ceremonies
were accommodated on a specially
erected platform in front of the hos-
pital, and those in attendance were
seated on the large terrace.
Chairman of the proceedings was
Harold Finnigan, vice-chairman of the
1-iospital Board, who acted in the ab-
sence through illness of President
Runes M. Scott. Rev. H. V. Workman
began the proceedings with prayer,
and in his opening remarks Mr. Fin-
nigan told of some of the problems
with which the board was faced be-
fore it was possible to complete the
wing. He pointed out that its com-
pletion was possible only through
grants from the County of Huron' and
Province of Ontario.
Mayor 'M. A. Reid, on behalf of the
citizens of Seaforth, expressed their
appreciation of the accommodation
and service provided by the hospital,
Others on the platform who were
introduced were Miss M. Grinyer,
Reg.N., superintendent; L. F. De La
Franier, business manager. and who
was in charge of construction of the
wing, and Rev. T. P. Hussey.
Congratulating the board on the
completion of a difficult task, W, J.
Duncan, a charter member or the
board, recalled the troubles which the
board had faced twenty years ago
when the hoelpital was originally op-
ened. He asked that the citizens
show their appreciation of hospital
by refraining from unfair criticism.
and pointed out the time and effort
which is contributed by the members
of the board on the part of all who
use the hospital. Mr. Duncan regret-
ted that his duties in the House of
Commons prevented W. H. Golding,
M.P., the first chairman of the board.
from attending and taking part in the
opening ceremonies.
Tribute to the nursing profession
was paid by Thomas Pryde, M.L,A ,
who pointed out that the hospital
building without those who served in
it, would be of little use to the com-
munity. Mr. Pryde introduced C. J,
Telfer, Inspector of Hospitals for On-
tatito, who represented Hon. Russell
T. Kelley, Minister of Health,
Mr. Telfer, in a short address be-
fore he declared the wing open to the
public, traced the trend towards great-
er assistance to the smaller hospitals
and told the audience that this year
there would be paid by the Govern-
ment, a grant of $2,35 for every dol-
lar spent last year 'by the hospital.
He pointed out that considerable
work remained to be done to the hos-
pital plant to provide modern and safe
facilities, and asked for the support
of the district to make possible a fin-
ished job.
During the after:;o'n an'I evening
members of the Hospital :'Cid served
tea on the lawn of the nurses' resi-
dence and also served as guides in
explaining and deseribirg the fe;;tures
of the new wing to the public. 't„
Huron County will have a turnip
club this year. Organized' ley LeRoy

entative, the club now has thirty-

DESCRIES LIFE IN
BRITISH WEST INDIES
A total of $6,590.47 was expended in
the year ending June 30 on commun-
ity welfare projects by the Seaforth
Lions, it was revealed, in the annual
financial report, presented by Treas-
urer M. A. Reid, to the members at
ameeting in the Commercial Hotel
Monday evening. The report indi-
cated the extent to which the club,
assumes responsibilities for projects
benefitting the people of the district,
and the manner in which it acts as
custodian for the funds collected, as
a result of its initiative.
Major expenditure centred about
the Lions Park, which is maintained
in its entirety by the club. Expendi-
tures there, which totalled $4,582.23
during the twelve-month period, pro-
vided for the wages of a full-time life
guard and instructor, necessary staff
to service the pavilion, and person-
nel to maintain the seven acres of
grounds and playing field in a manner
which arouses favorable comment
from the hundreds who daily use the
park facilities. Also included in the
park expenses was 't'he cost of im-
proving parking facilities, the con-
struction of a backstop and partial
payment of the recently installed'
floodlights; the provision of nearly
two hundred additional feet of picnic
tables and benches, and the installa-
tion of facilities; to provide picnickers
with hot, water. During the year
major improvements were made to
the pool and nearby portions of the
river ,to permit more efficient main-
tenance
aintenance and the capacity of the diver-
sion drain was doubled.
The club approved donations to var-
ious causes during the year amount-
ing to $1,003.21. Included in this was'
a grant of $750.00 to the furnishing
fund of Scott Memorial Hospital.
Donald MacTavlsh has received'
word from the Ontario College of
