City Home.
AS regards the City Home, the COM
mittee feels that its best function at
this time is:
l. To commend the movement now
on foot to move the tuberculosis pat
tents now at the City Home out into
the country to be cared for under
modern conditions. This is para
mount need.
Z. To emphasize the great necessity
for q modern city hospital for general
medical and surgical cases. for with
the present equipment the work OF
caring for the sick city poor is great
~ hampered. .-..-.
We are gratined that the Council
Committee recognizes this need, and
we earnestly urge that there be no IN
necessary delay in settling this i'm
portant matter.
The spirit in which the inmates OF
the City Home are now being looked
after by the present management is
deserving Of all praise. There only
remains for the city nov to do its
full part.
