These figures leave room whatever for question as
to where the greatest relative increase in railway expenses
occurred. 1t in the payroll.
Probably the greatest in expenses should have
been in the payroll Those however who got the benefit

Within recent months not only wages in other indus
tries and the cost OF living but also the prices that the

decline in the prices OF materials has been accompanied
by reductions in the OF the workingmen employed
by the which make these materials Can any

YOUR RED IN THE HOSPITAL.

~ EFT your grandfather or any old resident OF Whining
" ton to tell you about Florence Nightingale II their
memories keen, they'll recall 1864 when Foence
Nightingale the battleneds OF the Crimean War
with stan OF 3s nurses.
That before the days OF the Red Cross. It the
first organized movement to alleviate soldiers suffering
by taking women nurses to the front
When soldiers returned to Wilmington from the Civil
War they worshippcd Florence Nightingale for the army
hospital service which she helped organize.
She the greatest that ever lived, Flor
ence Nightingale. Largely due to her efforts nursing
organized into definite and honorable occupation for
women.
That is the reason why May i2 the anniversary OF
Florence Nghtngaes birth in 1920 has been designated
as National Hospital Day Which just has been celebrated
in city under the leadership OF Townsend W. Miller
Hospital Day is not tag day" a day on which
any sort OF drive on your pockebook is planned
It's merely day on which hospitals and their patients
invite you to drop in and learn the wonders Of modern
hospital work
In Wilmington Hospital Day is marked by special OBJ
seryances
You should share in and are urged to participate in
these activities from year to year
II you have ever been patient in a modern hospital or
visited friend there you that hospital is prob
ably the finest institution that civilization has pro-
duced
The service rendered by hospitals is vasier than you
imagine Arizona with many tuberculosis patients has
hospital bed for every seyentyseyen persons the State
That's the highest rate. Mississippi ranks last with
hospital bed for every i222 people.
Ohio, in health and hospital development has
hospital bed for every i62 residents This probably H.
lustrates the Importance OF hospital in
American communities-that at all times in every i6
