1t is proposed to have the addition
to the hospital and sanitarium tw
and one-half stories in height ant
built of brick The magniture Of tn
structure will depend largely upon tn
appropriation to be made by legisls
ture. 1t will probably cost complet
between $4,000 and 100000. Th
building will be erected on the site
the sanitarium which was burned
the ground ten years ago. The firi
cash donation to the fund now bein
raised to rebuild was check fc
| 800 sent by the Sisters Of Loretto.
The need of this addition is yer
urgent on account Of the absence c
an operating room In the present no.

plans outlined the building will b
strictly modern with elevator servic
and other facilities for the care an
comfort Of the patients. The opera
