GRAND FORKS MAY GET
A MODERN HOSPITAL

That Grand Forks may have a nod-
.erfi hospital conducted by a Catholic
sisterhood seems very probable. and the
whole proposition will probably rest on
the activity of the local physicians.
The hospital subject was discussed al
considerable length several weeks ago
at meeting of the Commercial club,
and at that time a committee composed
of l.. B. Gibbs, Dir. III. M. Wheeler,
Geo. B. Winship, Father Edward j
Conaty and w. B. Wood was appointed
to carry on an Investigation This
committee has had several meetings and
the hospital proposition and the needs
of Grand Forks in that direction have
been laid before several persons who
might ordinarily be in position to pro-
vide such an institution
b Rt Rev. Bishop Shanley, Fargo, was
interviewed regarding the possibility OF
a Catholic sisterhood operating hos
pital in Grand Forks, and during this
interview he stated that if the citizens
of Grand Forks would appropriate Al
cash bonus of $4,000 and a block of
land, located satisfactorily to the phy-s
sicianss Of Grand Forks, that ia sixty
bed hospital, with two operating rooms
and all modern equipment, built on
plans that could be easily enlarged,
would be built in that city and operated
by Catholic sisterhood.
There were no strings on this prop
osition, and those who are at all fa-
miliar with conditions believe that the
offer will be accepted and it certainly
will be if the physicians of the city who.
see the need Of such an institution do
their part.
1t has been suggested that a conn
mittee of two or more Of the Commerc-
.ial club committee should visit some
5of the eastern hospitals, and it IS like
#ly that DR.. Fl. M. Wheeler and another
member of the committee yet to be Sc
lected will visit several modern hospi-.
tails within a few hundred miles of
Grand Forks, in order to determine the
needs of a city of this size in the way,
of a hospital, 81
The physicians who are practicing
in Grand Forks are most deeply inter-

Poor old John D. is getting blamed
for about every crime there is just now,
but there happened an incident, which
will always be prominently mentioned
in connection with the career Of Percy
Trubshaw, editor Of The Cooperstown
Courier, and for which John D. was
not to blame, although his favorite fluid
played a part, at least in the telling of
the story.
1t appears that soon after Mr.. Trub-
shaw purchased his first automobile it
suddenly baked. In spite of the efforts
.of every handy man in town, all of
whom stood ready and willing at any
and all times to render valuable infor-
NATION and advice on any and all SUBJ
|jects, the internal thing wouldn't bulge
The auto stood in house in the
rear of Mr.. Trubshaw's printery and
one day when travelling salesman for
a Fargo machinery supply house struck
town he was invited to inspect the ma
[chine. The invitation was accepted and
the travelling man set to work.
He carefully went over every part of
the gasoline engine and adjusted several
parts, which, while not in bad shape,
HE suspected might have had something
to do with the breakdown Finally he
told Mr.. Trubshaw to try the machine.
Its all right said the travelling
man. Sand there is no reason why it
should not work. 4
Mr.. Trubshaw turned every v crank,
but the machine never budged. n
The opening Of the automobile shed
was the signal for every idle person in
the town to congregate and among the
twenty or more men who were carefully
watching the progress OF events was
the town comedian To him belongs
the credit for discovering the cause of
the trouble.
"Why don't you buy some gasolinea'
he shouted.
= The suggestion was acted upon and
sure enough the tank was empty. q
Everybody in Cooperstown smoked
cigars that day Mr.. Trnbshaw bought.
He has a new and much more expen-
sive automobile now and patronizes
John d. regularly. so he has no fear
|of repetition of the affair. IS
