delaware HOSPITAL
CLEAR OF Deficit
Unprecedented Showing Re-
ported by Townsend N.
Miller, New Treasurer
HOPES TO GET FUNDS
FOR YEAR NOW BEGUN

For. the first time in its history Della
ware Hospital has begun a new fiscal
year without a deficit. A deficit is a
customary thing In the finances OF any
large hospital. and this year, as a gen
eral rule. the deficits are much larger
owing TO the increased expenses OF war
times. The board OF directors OF Della
ware Hospital, therefore. is especially
happy over the fact that the institution
has met its financial obligations during
the past year.
Much OF the credit for this fortunate
state Of affairs is due to Townsend W.
Miller, who was made director In
March, 1916. and elected as treasurer 81
the board OF directors in January, 1911
Mr. Miller regarded the impending an
nual deficit with much concern. and
made known TO those with whom he
came in touch the financial needs Of the |
hospital and the great good 10 was cOI- /
stantly doing in the community. He /
up the cold facts in such an .
way that his hearers were
not only convinced, but caught some OF
his live interest in the hospitals wei

One Of them. who wishes his name
untold, promptly made out a check for
