DR.. Carpenters Address

Capt. Dudley n Carpenter, L. S. ~,
(Medical Corps), taking for his
heme "Duty-Christia and Humani-
arian,' made a brief address in
which he said:
Il have been asked to say Jew

east iron pipe is at the present
time so high that the laying OF
mains would be very expensive.
We believe that the cost OF pipe

the next few years. and your main
improvements can wait until this
time arrives.
We believe. however. that you
should have complete detailed
plans prepared covering your
projected Improvements. with
specifications. contract and bond
so that you can be in a position TO
let contracts for any part or all
parts % the work as may be deem
ed advisable by the Mayor and
Council and the officials OF the
Water Company.
Urges Monthly Inspection
II would also be advisable for
your city TO follow the example OF
numerous other cities aud employ
on a retaining fee basis an expert
water engineer 10 make a monthly
inspection OF your works and give
you the benefit OF his advice in re-
gard TO all questions OF mainten-
ance and operation OF the reser-
voirs, publication works. pump

tenn. Wat IT engineers in a num-
Der of the larger cities act in suca
capacity, and. while a city of the
size of Annapolis can hardly ex-
pect TO secure the services of an
expert engineer for maintenance
purposes and as operating headsof
your water system. yet il can, for
a comparatively small cost, secure
the continuous advisory services
of some of the best engineers in
the country.
Survey Covered Wide Field
In the preparation of this report
we have covered a wide field, and
il has required a great amount OF
study to reach a solution OF your
various problems, and has forced
us to work day and night to get
out a report which, we believe,
will adequately cover, your re-
requirements. We feel sure that
the solutions arrived at are the
correct ones, and sincerely hope
for the good of your citizens that
you will be able 10 carry out the
program herein outlined.
II is impossible to do any work
at the present time, without it
costing considerably more money
than would have been the cost, be-
fore the great war But we do. not
believe that construction, costs
will be materially less within the
next four or five years. While
you will be compelled TO spend
more than twice as much for your
improvements as would have been
the case five or six years ago, yet
we do not believe that the best
interests of your citizens will be
served by temp0rizing with your
water supply situation and we
most earnestly. recommend that
you take energetic action in Sc
curing a more plentiful and purer
SUPPLY with an increased pres

will insure every user q plentiful
amount of pure waternat jail times.
GTrusting that this report viii ,be
helpful to you in improving your
supply, and will be of demonstra-

port is

with these things you are not serving
the public intelligently We have
been enjoying for almost year a
very modern and up-to-date X-Ray
Department, which has aided the stan
in arriving at more positive diagnosis
and perhaps different line of treat
ment. We have great need of clfem
zeal laboratory. Not only as an asset
in the instruction of our nurses, but
now when we need examinations made
we must either call en- the Naval Hos
pital or more frequently send the
specimens to Baltimore. This often
means delay of several days when
patients life may be measured in
hours.

Good Diet Necessary For Sick

"They say the way to reach mans
heart is through his stomach. Of that
l am not so sure. There are others
here present more versed on that sub
ject than /, but / do know that the
chief factor in overcoming disease is
proper nourishment. To serve 80 or
more patients three times tally means
considerable work and we should have
more modern diet Kitchen But, as
II said before when you have only
enough to eke out an existence; you
can not undertake improvements.
Z have but briefly outlined few
Of our more pressing needs namely
more commodiohs maternity ward,
and one for free patients, a clinical
laboratory to 90 hand in hand with
our X-Ray in modern diagnosis, and
4 diet kitchen sufficient to our capa-
city. There are other things, per
maps, that might mention, but for
the present if we get the aforemen-
toned we will have made d big step
towards a bright future And as prog
ress depends to a great extent upon
improvements, or modern methods,
md the latter upon sufficient funds
which, after all, rests entirely on the
amount of Interest aroused, there
seems to be but one thing to do. And
that is-get together.

things in a simple language and by

the belief that no normal person de-
libera:ely chooses to be weak, or sick,
or to die an untimely death; that no
normal person wants his children. rel
atives. friends and neighbors TO be
weak. or sick, or TO die an untimely
death; that people naturally want TO
be well. strong and happy. and that
they want their children to be hale

not sometimes require the nurses tc

four weeks from today. There is no

The Maternity Service

1.-The maternity service now affords
the Emergency Hospital its largest in
come, is its most popular as well as
readiest form of service to the com
munity. The annual rental of the
distant and inconvenient house for
nurses is: $3.50, which represents the
interest on $4,000, per year This
amount, $4,000. the trustees have de-
cided upon as the minimum necessary
for building a nurses home on the
adjoining lot owned by the hospital
