Outlook for Emergency Hospital.

The Bellows Falls Woman's club is
making progress with the proposition of
making it possible for Bellows Falls to
have a small hospital particularly adapt
ed for emergencies. A special commit
tee consisting of Mrs. Almon /. Bolles,
Mrs. j. C. Day and Mrs. j. j. Fenton
have devoted much time and thought to
the problem and have come to a point
where they are ready to let the public
into their plans. These seem to be well
considered and feasible. Their idea is to
have an emergency hospital consisting
of a first class operating room, two
wards with two beds each, one private
room and accommodations for two
nurses and a housekeeper. The annual
expense they have figured in detail, es-
timating each item at what they consider
as the maximum amount, and yet along
lines of strict economy, and the aggre-
gate annual expense is a little less thar
$500. They have a definite fund in sub
scriptions of $500 as a nest egg and
will make a strenuous effort during the
coming winter to see a small hospital in
actual service. They call attention to
the frequent examples of suffering To-
cally that have occurred in the last few
years from the lack of such facilities
and the frequent railroad accidents with
the Y daily trains arriving and depart
ing from this station, also the danger
- "N S"NPo cHHPioSiHS many
hundred workmen. In these, many in
stances of sudden need of hospital SER
vice occur each year, and in the name
of humanity for which our people are
not lacking, the citizens are urged to ap-
p~reciate the need and respond to the
call. The committee have gathered facts
and figures from all the %neighborine
places where hospitals nave been in op,
Grafton several years, and they base
their present plans upon these facts
They are optimistic as to what Bellows
Falls will really do when rightly ap,
preached in the matter.

UNION REVIVAL MEETINGS
Are Drawing Large Crowds, and Full
of Interest at Presbyterian
Church This Week

At the Presbyterian church last
evening, this weeks series of union
revival meetings began with a crowd
ed house and an Interesting meeting.
On account of some trouble with the
electric lights the song service plan
ned for the opening of the meeting
had to be abandoned but Mrs. e.
Burton was equal to the occasion, and
while the people were waiting for the
lights to appear she kept them sing
ing familiar gospel songs. A con-
gregation singing in the dark was a
novel experience, but from the vol
ume of sound all seemed to enjoy it.
The solo "where will you anchor" by
Prof. Herbert was enjoyed by all, his
rich baritone being distinct and must
cal. The sermon by Mr.. MeDermoth
was strong one and was listened
to with the closest attention. Tomor-
row afternoons prayer meetings will
be held with Mrs. r. G. Moulton, Mrs.
j. Keifer, Mrs. r. c. Sargent and Mrs.
