National Hospital Day.

May IL is set apart throughout
the United States as Hospital Day.
The purpose of the day is to call at
tention of the general public of the
work of hospitals and the need OF
more.
DR.. Frank c. English, eneral Sec
Rotary of the Protestant Hospital
association, gives the following
figuresa There are 100000 peo-
pie in the United States sick in bed
daily and 1870 of these need hospi-
tai service, which would require
$4,000 beds. But we have only
100000 beds. This leaves short
age of 100000 beds"
More than a million sick and SUI
fering need hospital care each year
in the United States who can not
have 1t on account of lack of hospi-
tails, nurses or funds.
Commenting on hospital condi-
tions in the United States, the Lii
terary Digest says: 1T is obvious
that at least one-third Of the deaths
that occur each year could be pre-
vented or postponed. In some COM
munities the proportion of such
deaths may even reach one-half."
1.-THE American White Cross is
striving to correct hospital condi-
lions, encouraging the building of
more hospitals. Assist in their
maintenance. Enlist workers, Pro-
vide funds for free service for the
worthy poor"
