Philadelphia, Sept. 14.-Lew Tend Ter, Philadelphia lightweight, won a hard fought eight-round bout with Sailor Friedman of Chicago by a slight margin last night at National league park.

 It was the third time the two men have met. On Aug. 24, they fought an eiglIt-round draw in the. same ring in which they met tonight.

A Letter From the Hospital

Tijlbank. S. D., July IS, 1921.
To the good people of Milbank and
Vicinity:
We believe it is pretty generally
known lust how we were induced to
come here and build a hospital, but
for the benefit of those who may not
be familiar with the facts, we will en-
deavor to relate same.
The conditions surrounding the
building OF hospital are generally
TO the effect that tho people of COM
munity furnish at least half of the
money required, and quite often they
agree to raise considerable more.
However, in this instance it was agre
ed that this com immunity was to furnish
the ground and 100000, and we
agreed to furnish $4O,O0O.O0 which
we believe to be the largest percent
age of the amount required ever
agreed to be Furnished by any institu-
tion of this kind.
As YOU know, the building is erect
ed and has been operating for the
past several months, but on account
of existing conditions, we We're oblig-
ed to ourselves expend ever $50, ,00O.C0
instead Of $4O,OOo.00 as originally
agreed. The ground cost about $4,-
10000 which with the 100000
makes S14,OO0.nO to have been fur
nished by the people here. To date
only about S6,000.O6 has been raised
by this community, and Mr.. W. A.
Tighe has been sent here for the
purpose of getting the balance to-
gether, and. we believe end know that
he will be given the cooperation and
assistance of all tlG good people OF
this community.
As a matter OF information, for any
who perhaps are not familiar with
our methods OF operation, would say
that We never have any surplus funds
on hand, and therefore were obliged
to borrow the s5O,0GO0O already ex-
pended by us on this building. Owino
to tho fact that our nurses receive nc
remuneration but their actual fooe
anG clothing necessary we are IN 2
position to always operate at a pro
fit. which, however you will appreciate
cannot be sufficiently large to take
care o aly hut our own direct obliga
tion:. IS they have been stretched
really beyond the limit. While VIZ
realize fully the conditions as they
have existed we also feel that yol
will appreciate our position, and under
the circumstances we ere sure yo'
will agree that we are more than jus
titled in believing that we will hav'
the cooperation of everyone in thi
drive TO clean up the small balance
promised us.
Very sincerely yours,
