ed the entire district, which is no v left with no facilities.
Lack of Support Closes
Port Perry Hospital
Seaforth Campaign Com-
mittee Points Out Ne-
cessity For Community -
Wide Co-operation.
Necessity of a community which
is now enjoying hospital facilities to
lend full support and 'co-operation
to the hospital if it is to continue
to serve the district, was brought
home the hard way when it was
announced last week that Port
Perry Hospital had closed its
doors. The announcement is of
particular significance to the peo-
ple of Seaforth district, according
to Frank Kling and George John-
ston, who are heading the organ-
ization presently seeking $25,000
for. the Scott Memorial Hospital
building fund.
The Toronto Daily Star, which
in a recent issue reviewed the Port
Perry situation, says:
"Citizens of Port Perry and three
doctors who serve those cttizens
are indignant. This year alone the
centre has on record 1,545 patient
days, 45 major operations, 48 ob-
stettion cases, 79 Minor .opera -
dons and 15 accident cases.
"ACcording to Dr. G. M. Rennie,
veteran practitioner at Port Perry,
closing of the hospital will leave
the area vitally exposed in case of
emergency or accident. The near-
est hosnitals are at Oshawa and
LitICISHY, 16 and 22 miles. These
hospitals are overcrowded.
"At least 10 wives in this dis-
trict are expecting children," lie
said. "Ws almost impossible to
make arramements for accommo-
dation at outside centres. What
Will .we to?'
