APPROPRIATE
MORE MONEY
FOR HOSPITAL

After a consideration of the sub
ject the city council last evening ap-
propriated an additional $500 for the
construction of a hospital Jointly
with the county for the treatment of
contagious diseases.
The council had previously appro-
priated $500 and the board of coun-
ty commissioners appropriated a like
amount The board of county COM
missioners will now be asked to ap-
propriate an additional $500 and the
committee in charge of the matter
has every reason to believe that it
will have no trouble in securing it.
Plans for the building have been
perfected, bids secured, and as soon
as the board of county commission
ers make its appropriations the con-
tract for the construction of the
building will be awarded.
