Functions of a City Hospital.

A pamphlet issued by the department
OF public welfare OF the city of Cleveland
| deals with the history, functions and pos
| sibilities of the Cleveland City hospital.
| The following statement, copied from
| the journal of the American Medical As
ISOLATION. indicates that those in charge
OF this hospital have a clear conception
of the invaluable service to the pablic
which can be rendered by a great muni-
cipal hospital il properly conducted: a
municipal hospital is an institution Of or
ganized society provided by city to
care for the sick. 1t il but medical
means to social end, and this end pub
lie welfare-must never be forgotten.
The modern hospital has outgrown the
narrow field of boarding and treating
sick people and the time has come when
proper city hospital can no longer pas.
siyely receive the sick from the commu-
nifty at large, without regard for the rea-
son why they became sick, use them
chiefly as material and often discharge
them without the slightest interest in
their conyalescencc and rehabilitation in
wholesome living and working conditions
Hospitals more than any other social
agency accumulate the evidence against
the dangers to life in the community,
dangers from contagion, from ways OF
living and from industry, and they must
feel the responsibility TO study this evi
dence and become leaders in the progress
OF prophylactic medicine. The idle con
valescent is OF no more value in a com
munity than the bedridden and scarcely !
less expensive TO support. Ii is not only |
charity and social service, but also sound !

Will YORK HAVE

Former Club Owners Talk
Early of Next Years
Prospects

YORK, Pa, Oct. 2O.-Now that the
baseball season is ended for 1914 the
fans. although busy playing over the
games of the past summer while
tOasting their shins al the fireside,
will find a few moments now and
then and turn to a discussion Of
York's baseball prospects. The ques-
ton VIII be Immediately asked.
"Will York have a team I'm 1857"
The query will remain unanswered
until the men who are willing to put
their money into the venture are as
sured of what attitude the Tri-State
League will take toward York. n the
action of George NJ Graham, presi-
dent of the league, I'm removing the
last club York had to Lancaster is
construed as being indicative of the
sentiment of the league, then there
Is not much chance
II. Kister Free, a former president
of the York Athletic Club, and one of
the three owners of the baseball
plant on the fair grounds said a
short time ago that he was confident
enough money could be raised here TO
insure a team for next year. Mr..
Free, for years one of the most ar
dent of fans and always in the front
rank with those who lend baseball
a willing hand, was against the re-
moval of the last franchise and had
even a reasonable time been granted
by President Graham to raise the
money necessary to retain the club,
would have interested the necessary
capital.
AT present the stands, bleachers
and other buildings comprising the
local baseball plant are owned by
II. Kister Free, Alvin Reist and Eli
linn. The ground on which, they
stand is the property of the York
County Agricultural Society. The
lease on the plot expired the latter
part of September. However, there
is an inclination, il is said on the
part of the fair managers to grant a
renewal or allow the matter 10 rest
until something is decided relative 10

Mr.. Free declares there is a good
chance for a club here next summer
and stated further that If the fair
managers will grant a renewal OF
the lease on the grounds the present
grandstand and bleachers at the
West End field will be allowed to re-
main. If the lease is refused, the
buildings will be razed and sold.

Thorpe's sped is all that commended
him, according to Sam He Is not a
