THE !ANNUAL IMEETIN'G OF THE HOSPITAL 'BOARD, 1934 Consider Advisability of Adding New Wing to Scott Memorial Hospital 'The fifth annual meeting of the 'Scott 'Memorial Hospital ;Board was held on Friday evening, Dec. .'14,th. The work of the year was carefully reviewed by the various committees and the Hospital and all •equipment was found to be in good condition,. considerable necessary equipment having been added this last year. During the year there were times when the Hospital found difficulty in providing sufficient room for all pat- ients: owing to this condition there was quite a lengthy discussion re- garding the advisability of building an additional wing, to take care of the increasing number of patients. The property committee agreed to ascer- tain the estimated cost of the propos- ed wing and the necessary equipment, The Treasurer's report showed ev- erything in good condition, but the uncollected accounts show the result of the serious depression that we have been pasising through during the past five years. The members of the board all felt that it should be their ambf- tion to give the best possible serv- ice at the lowest possible 'cost, and it was felt by the board that if all ac- counts owing were paid, the board would then be able to make a very substantial reduction in the costs to the patients. A resolution was unani- mously adopted expressing the thanks of the members to the Treasurer, lir. Malcolm -McKellar. This position en- tails a great deal of work and Mr. McKellar was highly complimented on his efficiency and accuracy in keeping the records in accordance with the requirements of the De- partment at the present time. :A resolution was also unanimously adopted, "that the ISecretary write Miss Wilson, the Superintendent, ex- pressing the board's appreciation for the very efficient, economical, and ca- pable manner in which she and her staff have managed the affairs of the Hospital since the opening of this in- stitution in October, 194," Another resolution that was unanimously and heartily adopted was one to convey to the Ladies' IHos'pital aid a vote of thanks for the splendid assistance this organization has rendered' by supplying the hospital with very ne- cessary equipment when it was mulch needed. The board feel that words can hardly convey the sense of ap- preciation they have toward the lad- ies' association for the valuable as- sistance they have given in carrying on the work of the hospital. The fol- lowing officers were all re-elected: W. H. Golding, M.,P., :chairman of the board; John Finlayson, vice-chair- man: Dr. R. R. Ross, secretary; M. MdKeilar, treasurer. House committee, J. W. Beattie (chairman), W, J. Duncan, Mrs. R. :S. Hays, 'Mrs. J. B. Tyerman, Mrs. J. F. Daly. !Property committee, john Finlay- son (chairman), John Laing, W. A. Criich.. 'Finance committee, Dr. R. R. Ross (chairman), IL McKellar, W, I3. !Golding, M•P. !The following is the letter of ap- preciation sent to the !Superintend- ent by the Secretary: Dear Miss Wilson, - It gives me great pleasure to let you know that at the annual meeting held in the Hospital Dec. 114th, that the Board by unanimous vote in- structed me to write a letter to you and your staff expressing our full conifideunce in you as Superintendent, and also in the Staff in general.
