THINKS HOSPITAL
DESERVES HELP
Suggestion for Towns Getting To-
gcther with Thompson Trustees.
h of the Reformer:

Editor of the Reformer:
The article appearing IN last Satur-
DAY ; Reformer, setting forth the atti-
tude of the trustees of the Thompson
Fund towards the expenditure of money
in Brattleboro for Kindred charities p
together with suggesteu plan of action
b. yourself. merits the careful consider
alton of our townspeople. For a great
many years Brattleboro has accented
aid from the Thompson Fund as a mat
ter of course, and with one exception,
has never contributed anything to the
support of the work which has been of
such inestmable value to the commu-
nifty.
Inc Memorial hospital. which comes
under the caption of kindred chari-
ties, was built and equipped about Il
years ago. at a cost of approximately
SIOOC90. Since that time it has cared
for about 5000 patients. The gifts and
contributions during this entire period,
with the exception OF $4,000 given by
Mr.. and Mrs. George l.. Durham for
the erection of nurses home, have
not totalled $500 Communities the size
Of Brattleboro ordinarily build and
maintain hospitals at the expense OF
their own townspeople Even communi-
ties which are so fortunate as TO re-
ceive money for the erection and en-
dowment of such an institution, take
an active part IN its support
While the Memorial hospital was ade-
quatcly equipped at the time it was
constructed. it has received but little
additional equipment and is far from
being a modern hospital at the present
time. The lack of an obstetricaI depart
.ment and children : ward is keenly
felt by the surrounding towns as well
as bv Brattleboro itself. The addition
of these departments would flI long
felt want, add greatly to the income OF
the hospital and add very little to the
overhead expense.
An up-to-date and properly equipped
hospital may rightly b. considered an
important industry of community,
and may be a source OF considerable in
come 10 it, Nearly one-half of the pa-
tients treated at the Memorial hospital
are from without the town and state,
This means that there are constantly
many people in town who would not
otherwise be here. Has not the time ar
rived when Br0ttleboro citizens should
actively and substantially support the
kindred charities - which have hither-
10 largely been supported by the
Thompson fund. and by so doing retain
the support of the trustees for these
worthy and necessary Institutions:
