PALAMA'S
DISPEDSARY IN
new QUARTERS

The new building on the Palama
Settlement grounds is rapidly near
ing completion. and the dispensary
has already been moved In.
The dispensary is located in the
basement of the new building, which
contains several large. Welllighted
and well-ventilated rooms. The en-
trance leads into long room to be
used as waiting room, and adjoining
this is the dispensary proper which
is fitted mp with all modern Appliances
to meet the demand of this particular
line of work offered by the settle
ment. The basement also contains
the nurses room. store rooms and
work rooms.
The main building consists of two
stories and will be used as resi-
dence forJ. A. Rath, head worker or
the settlement, and his family. and
will also contain rooms for the resi-
dent nurses connected with the set
Element.
The new building is the result Of a
long-felt want in the way Of suit
able place for the dispensary and of q
residence for those directly connect
ed with the settlement. On account
OF the increased amount Of work
which has been done by the old dis
pensary during the last six months,
it was found necessary to run the
work on a larger plan, and this in
turn called for larger amount Of
floor space.
The settlement is planning on erect
ing new dispensary for the Punch
bowl district on the grounds of the
Royal School, and the work on this
will be commenced soon. This build
ing will take the place OF the old
Punchbowl dispensary, recently sold.
