change to radio.
Radio has made its way into
every little town and hamlet in the
country and into thousands of
homes Prof. Dykcma said. With
increasing interest in this modern
discovery, the public is coming to
appreciate better music because OF
the varied programs broadcast by
radio stations. Every station has
its radio numbers. Musical pro-
grams broadcast generally are Sc
lected with view to giving the
pi;blid several different types. of
musical selections. This has led
the public to appreciate and want
greater variety of music.
Radio also is influencing change
in so-called jazz music, with Prof.
Dykema declares shows interesting
modern influences. Largely through
the influence of radio, jazz music

PUBLIC ASKED
TO HOSPITALS
NEXT MONDAY
Hospital Day to be Observed
Much May be Learned
BY Visits There

Hospital Day, which has grown to
be one of the largest days in the
yearly calendar of the hospital will
be observed by the ST. Alexius hos
pital next Monday, May ~, celeb,at-
ing Florence Nightingalc's birthday
with graduation exercises in the
evening. Open house will be observ-
ed from three to five p. NJ. when the
public is invited to call and all ba-
bies born at the hospital during the
past year will be weighed and exam
ined by a corps of nurses which will
be provided and any found needing
attention mothers will be so advised
A visit to St. Alexius hospital
would reveal many interesting facts
not generally thought of in connec
tion with a hospital.
Stocks of food supplies are more
varied and plentiful than the aver
age grocery store. Drugs and medi-
cal and surgical supplies are suffi-
cient to equip a good drug store.
Kitchens and dining rooms d~ly feed
more people than the average hotel.
Dry goods and house supplies are
carried to such an extent that an
up-to-date department store might
well be proud
Besides being drug store, a g.o-
Gerry, drygoods or departmer. store,
the typical hospital also is power
plant of no mean capacity, and a
laundry with volume of business
and an Array of up-to-date equip
ment that many laundry men will
envy. All of these supplies and all
of this equipment are needed to bring
the patients back to health land
strength, and this care of the sick
is the prime function of the hospi-
tai.
A hospital also offers. facilities of
high grade to the patients and
nurses, and also in many instances
is an advanced educational institu-
ton. 1t trains young women to fol
low the footsteps. of the immortal
Florence Nightingale and to become
bulwarks of the community agar st
I disease and plague. The hospital
also is the finishing school for the
young medical graduate, an increas-
ing number Of whom, by law, are
compelled to serve term under the
experienced specialists and surgeons
of hospital before they may be
licensed by the state as medical prac-
ttioners.
SO the question, "What is hospi.
tall" really isn't answered the way
the average person might think.
Plans for the big program at st
Alexius Hospital National Hospita
Day, May II, are progressing spicn-
didly. The hospital wants to have as
many people as possible come in ant
get acquainted SO they may have ;
real idea of the many importan
things it is doing for them.

 Dissatisfaction is shown
 Dissatisfaction with the bus line system now employed by the Con- necticut company Is being manifest cd by residents of both Berlin and Kensington. They claim that the trolley cars. while furnishing not the hest service that might be expected, were much better than the husscs.
 The main complaint made is that the busscs arc not comfortable enough. Of course, this is not inc fault Of the trolley company. The reason for the uncomfortable Condi- ton lies in the fact that the road between Sand Bank hill and kensing- ton is extremely uneven and rough. II is in q bad state of repair and residents feel that the trolloys should have been maintained until a new road was put in or the present was put in better condition.
 The service is good, it is agreed. The bussos make much better time than the trolley cars and the trip 10 New Britain does not take the half hour from Berlin street. that it used 10.
