Graham Guild Linen Shower.
The Woman's Guild of Graham hos
pital will hold their annual linen
shower next Tuesday afternoon, Feb
ruary 8, at 2:3O o'clock, at the nurses

Perhaps the friends of the hospital do
not realize how very much linen is
necessary for making the patients
comfortable, and perhaps they do not
know that the hospitals give many
months each year of care to patients

ness and suffering this year exceeds
anything in the past Under these
conditions we hope that our friends
will not only remember us most gen.
erously but not forget that we must
do unto others as we would have them
lido unto us, said one of the members.
