NATIONAL HOSPITAL DAY.

Thursday, May r. has been dosignat-
ed as National Hospital Day
1t is a day set apart to build appre-
citation for the work of the hospital,
for the skill Of the surgeon and for
the vast work done boy the nurse
It is often remarked In this city that
the hospitals are bound TO do much
work for which they receive no pay
The stranger who falls ON the street,
the child that ia injured m am acci-
dent any person in need Of emergency
treatment is hurried away by excit-
ed people 10 the hospital The SUR
geon Immediately sets 10 work to give
relief. The question Of pay is not seen
after. The poorest child gets the same
attention accorded the rich The
stranger without funds gets tine same
treatment as the one who has money
10 pay his way
How is this done may Doe asked. The
hospital is not supported by public
funds, it receives nothing from charity
then how can a private institution
give aid in every emergency and take
the risk of receiving remuneration.
There is but one answer. This SER
vice is given the public through the
sacrifice Of the surgeon and the own
ers Of the hospital
There are others too that make many
sacrifices. Those are the nurses. In
emergency cases they work without
sleep. Nursing is service that is
inspired by desire 20 be of service To
mankind. The motive that prompts
the nurse to adopt the profession is
akin to the motive that prompts men
and women to give their lives 20 reli-
gion and to other public uplift work.
II is noble calling. it Is q high
profession. il is useful work that
the world could not get along without.
National Hospital Duy is not set
aside 10 raise money but FOR the pur-
pose Of building gratitude for this
wonderful service that Is rendered un-
fortunate mankind Il Is set aside to
acquainpsmen and women with what
hospitals do. on this day the hospitals
are open TO visitors. You are invited
10 inspect the rooms, the beds, thc
food and to acquant yourself with tine
service that is given the sick Of your
community.

greater enlishtenment may have theil
names written on the scrolls which
carry the names OF those who have
discovered things worth while for the
good of men.
Backward has turned the hands OF
the clock of Time, with accompany
ing repetition of history, in order that
the leaf Of the "Coffeebean" tree. that
leaf which was used by our sturdy
great grandmothers. may find its place
in the halls Of the Building of Science,
its place in the niche in the Temple
Of Fame
And in turning back these hands Of
the great clock, in reversing the hour
glass, science has discovered some
thing which was known to the rank
and file, to the illiterate as well as
the learned a century, and up to a
half century ago. Scientists have now
discovered that the bruised leaf of the
Coffeebean tree viii poison flies. And
in doing this they have enabled science
to help history repeat itself in DEM
onstrating that the greatest "dscov-
cries" have come either through acci-
dent or through the ability Of some
man to take unto himself credit for
something that people already knew,
hut didn't know they knew.
Away back yonder during the times
when men wore knee trousers and ruff
fled chimesettes old man Newton lay
down beneath the shade Of the old ap-
pie tree, one bright ana sunshiney af
ternoon, there to sleep Off. maybe the
effects Of potations Of apple jack and
hard cider. The flies buzzed. mnoticed,
about his head and walked up and
down the landscape Of his roseate-
huod nose. The sun shone down in
all brliance and cffulgency and the
sweat poured from his fevered brow,
but science walked ON the even path
of things already discovered, nor paus
cd until the snores of Old Man Newton
were brought to a sudden stop as a
large, over-ripe and juicy apple fell
from the topmost branch dr that ap.
PIE tree and smote him between the /
eyes.
II was then that Newton arose to his
