Fad C~rnwumember (ConraoO would beg
to say, when now raising the question of
having the Lepar Asylum in the vicinity of
Fredoriksted, Members for that part of
the Isla I'd had to day, so to speak, waived
the position holding on to that Asylum be-
ing erected in West6nd Jurisdiction ami
thereby to secure the presence of another
pny ,ic.an in that quarter, bat it was done
with the understanding that Government
and Council will see to it that suitable en-
deayours be made Notwithstanding and in
some other way to get another physician
to settle down ia Westend Jurisdiction
Then again, there should be two Head
Nurses, the one advancing on higher pay
after some time of service and proficiency,
while the second Que would in time have u
chance of promotion too. The present staff
are profciept-; but it is not to be wonder
ed at, if when the time comes they will
leave for the United States, unless some
encouragement be given in the manner sug-
gested. He knew full we'll, that those re-
marks would have no effect now, but in q
coming year they may nellt to come under
consideration
LIST Member for Frederik ted (C0uter)
made some remarks on the Nurses OF the
Red Gross and on the scale of rates of
pIN Iutut. I1t u6AO SHNO u othNCi4ChO VI
what had TRANSFERRED last year III the Coun-
ell concerning the amount OF sa!a les to the
Inspector at Petersfarm Hospital and he
showed how the Hospital at Frederlksted
had 130 patents to attend to, in Christian
stod only 80, and In frederiksted the Hos
pital itself is larger with a great deal more
inventory he failed still to see why under
such circumstances the smaller institution
with less number of patients should require
or be allowed an Inspector with 1000 Fir pa.
free house ana grass, while the other with
more TO attend to, gets only 5000 Fl. and no
house nor grass. He would therefore not
vote for the measure proposed now again
fJr C1li:tiansted, after it was rejected last
year.
3rd Member for Christiansted (Pretto)
observed that while agreeing IN the re-
marks made about nurses in the hospital,
he could not agree that the Hospl-
TIL Inspector in Christiarsted should
not be salaried as in the Money Bill propos-
ed, OF see why the salary for the Inspector DIT
Christiansted should be made the same as
for that in Frederiksted the Inspector in
this last mentioned place has much more to
do, as the Hospital Buildings cover a much
more extended area for inspection and con-
troll aid a greater number of inventories to
overlook, even as the patients are
lere scattered over q large mum
Der Of apartments and buildings; and
as regards the necessity of allowing
grass it is Il necessity for the Inspector ut
Petersfarm to keep conveyances, as The hos
piial is situated at a gool distance from
town. and people, as well as things, have to be
conveyed. last year it was by mere chance
the. amount was reduced from What it was
, 1908-02-19

to what it is at present. But he would
vote for the proposal i'll the Bill, the more
readily when it be remembered, that IN his
time considerable re.renchments have been
made III the hospital expenses.
1st Member for Frederiksted IC0u{ter);
Such retrenchments Lave been made also for
Frederiksted hospital, perhaps to a far
greater proportion and it does seem strange
that one hospital providing for and caring a
smaller number OF patients in a year at a
higher rate of expense than the other shall
be furnished with an Inspector with higher
pay and em%Cluments than the other. 1t will,
no doubt, be fresh In mind with most Mem
berS, the circumstances under which the IN
crease Of salary etc. for Christiansted was
refused by the Council last year he for one
saw no reason to vote otherwise this year.
The Ch0irmdR would beg to offer this
additional explanation, that the Inspector of
Frederiksted Hospital is not expected to
possess knowledge of the way to attend to
simple casualties occurring almost every
day at Petersfarm, where attendance and aid
must be afforded at once, and the situation Of
this hospital at a good distance from town
makes it not always possible to get timely
assistance, while in Frederiksted, the hospi-
tai being almost in the middle Of the town,
near to the Doctor and the Apothecary,
makes it less urgent that the Inspector shall
be a man having knowledge OF the way to
deal with such cases. 1t VIII always teko
some time for Il messenger to 80 to town to
call the doctor and get medicine, and for
the doctor to come the present Inspector
does possess such knowledge Of timely at
tendance to urgent cases, and it is required,
therefore that Inspector deserves some high
er pay, while for Frederiksted the Inspector
is not expected to be in possession of such
knowledge.
The discussions were closed after a time
ey Bill under the Sanitary Department with
a sum of Fr. 13S,420 in all, and including
expenses at the Communal HosgitaIs, was
put to vote and adopted with 10 against 4
votes
, 1908-02-19

struck him, that when we look at the differ.
tnt Sums OF money used, it seems striking
that such 4 large proportions, say $500 of
the tota, FIR. So, sos is used for Rural Schools,
while a much smaller sum is applied for
Town Schools; he would suggest that a list
be furnished of all the schools, showing the
amounts used respectively for each school
and the results in regard to scholars etc.
Bird Crownmember (L4arsen4 would beg to
say, that the plan for shares to supply funds
for establishing Schools is being worked out,
and will be furthered with all possible haste
as far as Christiansted IS concerned.

REMARKABLE
INCREASE
IN THE CLOAK AND SUIT DE.
PARTMENT OF THE PHIL
LIPS BIG STORE co.
Twice as Many Employees Required to
Take Care of the Large Volume
of Business in This De-
partment,

During the past year the increase Of
business in the cloak and suit depart
ment Of the Big Store has been moth
ing short of marvellous This depart
men now requires Just twice as many
employees to handle the increased bust
ness. Four experienced cloak statesmen
and four salesladies have been added
to the already large force, making
just double the number employed last
year. 1t requires eight girls, always
busy, in the alteration department.
This has become a feature of the
cloak and suit department. So skillful-
'ly and expediently is the work In this
department handled that only a short
time is required on any alterations
that may be necessary on garment
from the cloak and suit department.
Mr.. Phillips in speaking of the in
crease In business said: There is
only one thing that can account for 1t,
and that is the selling of all the latest
and most UP to date suits and cloaks
at such remarkable low prices as to at
tract the attention of people who wish
to dress correctly at the most reason
able figure We are enabled to sell be-
low the ordinary cost on account of
our excellent buying facilities. Our
buyers are continually on the lookout
for any good offerings and snap them
ND as soon as possible, and then buy
ing as we do in such large consign-
ments is another advantage We have
over a great many dealers.
eve expect continued Mr.. Phil

ness this year than ever before. and
we are we'll prepared for it, both as
regards the excellent quality Of our
