Does a kind word T>ay? Dees neigh­borly help pay? No; not in cash.

A hospital pays better. dividends than money. It id aj^Jnstmiment by Which we ail gW^neighborly help to every one who is sick or injured. How Will the Hospital be Managed?

By a Board of seven Trustees, elected by the pedple. No doctor can be on. fchiis board. Trustees' re­ceive no salary. They must treat alll, with ' fairitess, \ The cost for the care of thfi worthy poor, in Dela-wtare county for, the,, year 1914 was $1979.81 for medical attention and $'482.66 for nursing or a total of $2462.47. From the 'reports of the counties where the county hos­pitals are established,this amount can be reduced one-half.

The reports from the Jefferson and Washington counties hospitals show the cost of maintenance to av­erage about $1000.00 per year.

The trustees will hire; a superin­tendent, nurses, janitor, cook and other help as needed. These and thies© alone will receive pay. They will also fix the charges to be made for attention at the hospital. The Small Home Hospital va. The

Large Distant Hospital. Patients in a home hcspital will

get better service because the man­agers are home people and respou-sdve to home public sentiment.

In a small home hospital the pati­ents individuality is not lost. Fam­ily and friends can visit them . at any time. He can be under the eye of his family physician, than whom no cne is more concerned in his welfare.
