Lucknow and the luckless Colborne . nine tangled in a Maitland League game here Saturday that ended at dusk in the 8th inning with the locals on the upper side of a 15 to 12" score. Colborne, only a shell of last year’s chappionship . contenders, put on a 7-run scoring bee in the 7th that endangered the big lead Luck- r now hadi been piling up. The exhibition wasn’t much to en- ’thuse about, and both sides , had a flock of. errors, Elliott Carruthers, who was passed on last week by the. executive/ took the thound for Luck now to hurl his first ball game. He had plehty of speed and “stuff” but had difficulty in. controlling the horsehide, walking 1 5 arid hitting 5. However in six. innings he allowed only 3 scratchy hits, but in the 7 th .It was plain, he had been toiling too .-bard for starter, and Colborne. be- , . fore the dust cleared, had scored '7 be some verocious battles.

Altogether, Lucknow col lected 14 hits, and scored in 5 of ....7-innings;- -their- -most—gainful- on slaught coming in the 4th when they chased 6 rung over the rubber. Jack Fisher’s triple was the best hit of the day. while- “Toby” Greer had the hard luck to be credited with two errors. when on account of the sun. he lost, two throws to the initial sack. The neatest play of the game was a double in the 4th. With " Jim Farrishl on 3rd. , Allin grounded to short.

Shocking Cost For Treating Indigents. In Outside Hospitals In considering the increasing. cost of maintenance of indigent I patients at Public Hospitals and Sanatoria for Consumptives throughout the Prov ince we are impressed by the fact that there .seems' to prevail among the people of the present day an un fortunate lack of that spirit of. inde pendence which was so characteris tic of the early pioneers and settlers of the country. As soon as the Leg islature passes an Act providing for .the dispensing of charity to the needy and destitute, among us, many people Seek to take unfair advantage of the law and to receive benefits to which they are. not entitled. Whether it be -measures for/ Unemployment Relief, --------- ------------ the granting of Old. Age Pensions or School s— AlIenford.! Mothers’ Allowances or free treat ment for indigent patients at Hospi tals, abuses gradually creep in with the result that an increasing number of persons yearly receive benefits from the State for which they are well able to pay. In the case of our Pub lic Hospitals there would appear to be a considerable number of patients receiving free treatment as indjgents because we have not fully investiga ted or have bebn unable to prove their ability to pay, although their friends and.»neighbors are firmly of the opinion that they are'quite able to pay; and aFe not proper subjects of charity. I The Act making County Councils responsible for the maintenance of indigent patients was passed in 1926 the rate chargeable being $1.50 per day for both General Hospitals and Sanatoria for Consumptives, in 1928 the rate for Hospitals was increased to $1.75 per day. The Act has now been in force' for about ten years'and during that period; the County and the local municipalities have paid Hospital bills amounting to approxi mately $75,000.00. This amount does not include the yearly County grants to the-' local Hospitals at Walkerton, Kincardine and Lion’s Head, which in, consideration of the grants received? maintain all County patients free of charge. The fact .that $2,933:35 was expended by Bruce Coiiftty for otrt£ side hospitalization in 1927 (the first full ybar in which the act was in force), as against $15,495.60 in 1935 shows the tremendous increase dur- 1 ing. the past decade fbr this purpose. At the January session of this year ' bills for outside hospitalization were n paid by Bruce amounting to $3820.50, j while ht the June session last week 1 an additional $8215.65 was paid, and the November session will probably add another $8000.00, so the bills for the three sessions of 1936 will likely ’ be about $20,000. , Warble Fly and Mortality in ] /X Little Pigs Mr. (jeorge R.
