tralia would pay beyond SO to see
such fight. But l felt the affair
would be a sell-out and even went so
far as to add several thousand extra
seats to the stadium, bringing the
capacity nearly to the 10000 mark.
The fight was put on at 1890 on
the morning of Dec. 26, 1908. At 5
a. m. the unreserved seat crowd was
standing in a long line waiting for
the gates to open. At a. m prac-
tically everyone was in his seat and
an hour before fight time there wasn't
an inch of sitting or standing space in
the arena.

the biggest crowd in ring history W

EMPLOYERS REMINDED
OF Child LABOR LAW

Employers of the city are becoming
careless about observing the state
child labor laws, according to local Of
ficials.
1t is pointed out that no boy under
is years old or girl under is years
old can be employed unless the child
has a working certificate. Certifi-
Gates can be secured at the office of
the vocational director at the high
school
A general survey of the situation in
the city shows that many boys and
girls are working who are under the
ages set by the Indiana law.
In order to employ children who
are under 16 and is years old for
boys and girls, respectively, they must
first present permit from the voca-
tional director. certifying that the
child is in the proper physical condi-
ton for the kind of work being done
and that the child will continue going
to school for five hours each day until
they become old enough to come from
under the jurisdiction of the law.
Provisions of Law.
These children under age must not
work more than eight hours per day
nor more than 48 hours a week and
not before six o'clock in the morning
or after seven o'clock at night.
If the state inspector finds these
laws being violated by employers, that
employer is liable TO arrest and prose
cution under Indiana state laws.
Therefore, to be on the safe side OF
the situation, employers should see
that those under them are correctly
employed by holding working permits
signed by the vocational director.

THE FORUM

There has been a great deal of dis
cussion, in and around Richmond in
the past week or two, concerning the
operation of spark and continuous
wave. radio telegraph stations, and
their interference with broadcast radio
phone programs.
The writer wishes to state a few
facts, and if the radio fans" Will
consider them with open, unbiased
minds, some of the mystery may be
cleared away, and a better understand

First-Broadcasti is only done by
stations licensed for that purpose,
such as "WOH', t'WGY'', "WSB",
"KDKA' and the rest. Amateur tele-
graph licenses do not permit broad
casting, and no transmitting station
in Richmond other than "WOZ" is
doing any broadcasting.
Broadcasting programs are sent out
on a wave length and power SUCH tnaI
the largest possible number may us

transmitted on a special snort wave

Frederick Buche Suffers
Slight Brain Conclusion

Struck by an auto truck which was
moving slowly down an alley while
he was playing with some other boys
near South A and Sixth streets Tues
day evening, Frederick Buche, six
year old son of DR.. and Mrs F. P.
Buche, log South Seventh street, is
today suffering from slight concuss-
ion of the brain. Although his condi-
ton is known to be serious, it is
thought that he will recover.
The boys were playing in the vacant
place behind the market house which
is located between Sixth and Seventh
streets on South A street. The truck
was moving slowly but could not be
stopped in time to avoid striking the
Buche boy when he ran out from be-
hind one of the buildings without warn
ing to the driver.

1,42S PATIENTS Get
HOSPITAL ATTENTION
IN 1921 SAYS REPORT

The following statement, compiled
from the annual Reid Memorial hospi-
ftaI report for the year 1921, has been is
Isued by George II. Eggemeyer, mem
! Der of the hospital board of trustees.
Patients remaining in the hospital
Jan l, 1921, 81; patients admitted dur
ing the year 1921, 1852; births, 14S;
total 1,429.
Patients discharged as cured, 1925;
deaths, 10; patients remaining in hos
spital jan 1, 1922, "a; total. 1,429.
Of these 1,429 patients. 694 were
private room patients. who paid from
$3.50 TO "a and $3.50 per day for priv
ate rooms; $50 were ward pay pat
ients who paid 81 per day; los were
charity patients who were not able to
pay anything. 1t cost 4,601.54 to
run or maintain the hospital during
the year 1921, or it cost to run and
maintain the hospital, $149.59 each
day. The average number of patients
each day in the hospital during 1921
was 43 patients. 1t therefore cost the
hospital $3.4S a day to keep and care
for each patient.
The ward pay patients are those
who need hospital care and are not fl
enanciallyS able to occupy a private
room and are cared for at 81 day in
sfhe wards, and receive the same atten
ttion and care and the same food as
private room patients. Therefore, ey-
cry ward patient costs the hospital
S1.48 day or the difference between
.$3.48, which it costs the hospital, and
the So which he pays.
Charity Patients
During the year 1921 we cared for
1o5 patients who were unable to pay
and were taken and treated as charity
patients. These los charity patients
spent 1,849 days in the hospital which
cost the hospital $3.4S day, OF
$6,63452. The $50 ward patients who
were in the hospital 6,795 days and
who were only able to pay So a day
cost the hospital S1.4S a day, or SO,
056.60 for the 6,795 days care re
ceived
This s1O,056 so, plus the los charity
patients, which cost the hospital S.,
434,52. makes a total of charity WORK
done during 1921 of $16,491.13.
This deficit of $16,491.13 is largely
made up through the interest on oul
endowment tund, some Sl,9UO.Uo; tnt
Hospital Aid society, who spent las
year $2,46425; the city council, $4,000
and the balance from the income o
the private room patients and through
charitable contributions.
First Six Months
For the first six months of 1922, tn
hospital has cared for 500 privat'
room patients, 281 ward patients, anC
70 charity patients. These 70 charit!
patients spent 1904 days in the hos
pital the first six months of 1922. |
the cost per patient in 1922 is $3.48 pc
day the same as it was in 1921, the1
it cost the hospital $3,493.92 to carr
for these 70 charity patients durin!
the first six months of 1922. We cared
for 2S1 ward patients.
These PSI ward patients spent 3,36
days in the pospital, and as they wer'
only able to pay $500 a day Will
they cost the hospital S3.48 a day
therefore costing the hospital $4,981.6
more than the hospital received TO
their care This $4,981.68, plus tn
$3,493.92 it cost to care for the CHART!
patients, makes total of $8,475.6I
charity work done during the first ST
months of 1922.
