the interior appointment nor the
spirit of those who are engaged in
this laudablc undertaking. This spirit
is best interpreted by a placard which
is conspicuously posted in the recep-
tion room bearing the legend "a
Hospital is Hotel for the Sick" an
avowal whose application one observes
in the treatment accorded the quests"
and the provision made for their COM
fort.
All of the rooms have an outside
exposure with an abundance Of light
and fresh air. The rooms themselves
are unusually large, with walls and
ceiling of each done in tints that har-
mcnize with the furnishings. Each
room is equipped with hot and cold
running water and is heated by steam
radiators. A diet kitchen-adjunct
to the main kitchen on the first floor
and a bathroom is located on each
floor, all of which are of ready access
by electric elevator and communica-
ton by telephone. Through and In
genious device, ventilation of the en-
tire building was effected by leaving
an aperture between the Stats cover
ing the under side of the caves, thus
allowing air to circulate between the
ceiling and the roof, from whence it
is conducted by means of an opening
in the garret to the floor beneath.
Four bed rooms are located on the
first floor, with doors opening into
hallway which leads from the recep-
ton room to the rear of the building.
Immediately behind these rooms are
the main dining room, where food is
prepared for all patients, the buffers
pantry and the kitchen. One is i'm
pressed at every step with the fitting
orderliness of what he observes on his
tour due attention having been given
to the minutest details.

would indeed be strange Were the re-
action otherwise, there is a more sig-.
nifcant element of which we should,
speak. We refer to the spirit Of DR.
Kelly and the morale-h We may be
indulged use of the term-of his ply
sicians, nurses and attendants.
DR.. Kelly is graduape Of the Me6-
cal College of South Carolina and the
holder of post graduate certificates
for meritorious work from Johns
Hopkins, three great institutions IN
Philadelphia and New York, and from
the famous Mayo hospital in Mich-
gan. It is not necessary for Us 20

geon and an administrator-his works
are more eloquent than printed words
and we commend them to our readers
thought and attention. 3
DR.. B. NJ. Montgomery is in charge
of X-ray work, while DR.. Cuyier
Harper, recently distinguished as the
winner of the loving cup for the most
proficient student at the Medical Cox
lege, is in charge Of y the laboratory
and acts as house surgeon. Drs. W
G. Gamble, T. S. Hemingway and G?
D. Jacobs are consulting physicians.
Mrs. Emma Weaver Stubbs Is
superintendent of the corps Of highly
trained graduate nurses. Miss Ms-
rion Smoak is assistant operating
nurse. Misses Annie Smith and An
ma McCrea are floor nurses, leaving
two vacancies to be filled.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
Sanitorium was founded primarily tb

immediate community, DR.. Kellys
fame as surgeon has spread and the
scope of his work has broadened,
Patients from all parts Of the state
are received every day and they m

The Kelly Sanitarium, the only IN
stitution of its kind between Cher-

to do a magnificent work. Men Of
vision, as assuredly Dr.. Kelly Is, j
an asset to any community and we
can endorse his undertaking without
reservation. People Of Kingstree
should gladly accord to him and b
