 Report of Trustees
 Your board is able to report what is probably the most prosperous year in the history of the home since it's foun- dation.
 The outstanding event in the year 1918 was the erection of the Dora Tripp Bartlett memorial bungalow accommo- dating six patients, intended for sol diers suffering from tuberculosis but when not required for this purpose. available for civilians. It was partially endowed by the generous gift of S15,000 in Liberty bonds by A. C. Bartlett of Chicago This is the largest gift ever made by one individual to the home.
 WNhave also received SLIGO in Lib erty bonds from Mrs. John A. Roebling of New Jersey towards the endowment.
 Later in the year there came gifts for three more modern bungalows of the same type for soldiers. and other gifts which joined to the C. $. Moore building fund enable us to erect a sim liar bungalow for women. The five bungalows increase our capacity for 90 additional patients.
 Purchase More Land We have also been able to purchase the land and house adjacent to the home on the south, thus making our 1 land extend from road to road provid ] ing room for eXtePsion in the future and safeguarding us from intrusion. l The house is now rented and brings in | a small monthly income.
 Our present needs are for an in ! creased endowment fund which now amounts to S47, 500 but which ought to l ! $1O0. .0O0. and also for current expenses. l Over sl0000 are required annually to | make up the deficiency in the amount i paid by patients. We would require ! twice this amount if we were to care | for those worthy and in need who ap- | ply for admittance when there are va i cancies. In fact, We ought not to en- ] large our work further until We are l assured of a larger endowment or in come It would be most acceptable If some of our friends would give a DOT ton of their Liberty bonds for this purpose.
 Work Under Difficulties | Eventually We hope 10 substitute for the old individual bungalow the new bungalow with shower baths new heat ing apparatus and other conveniences which add to the comfort and lessen . of bungalow.
 We have been glad to do our part in the great war by caring for a consid- erable number of invalid soldiers and this work we are prepared to do in- creasingly in the coming year
 The home has carried on it's bene- ficient work under certain difficulties and limitations. The expense of ad- ministration has been extremely small. We have endeavored to have the money given go directly to the needs of the institution in the care of the patients who come from all parts of the country and represent all creeds and no creed at all. Churchman and Protestant Roman Catholic and Hebrew and those of no religious faith. who dwell to- gether in the unity of family life

 The entertainment house has re- ceived some additions to its scanty furnishings in the way Of easy chairs a billiard table and other tables. Here the superintendent adds to his mani fold labors by acting as a moving pie ture exhibitor on week nights and as the leader in religious service on Sun day. He can combine the pastoral and nriestlv functions with those of a solic- itor of funds and the management o1 a first class boarding house along the lines of a hospital and home. Nor mus we forget the splendid service rendered during his recent severe illness and al all times by Mrs. Cocks who has beer a helpmate in every sense of the word while vour board Of trustees is conf dent that our resident physician, active all over the city and even the state IT the work of his profession will agre' with them in the helpIneet that he ant , the institution have in Dr. Marian Williams who during his absence SC faithfully and efficiently ministers t' the patients.
