IMPROVEMENT
Of CASUALTY
PLANNED
Consolidation of Two lnstitu
tions Will Cut Overhead,
Says Superintendent.

Consolidating the two hospitals,
Emergency and Casualty, under one
management will result in greatly
reducing the overhead expenses as
compared with that incurred when
the two institutions were run un-
der separate arrangements. This
announcement was made today by
B. B. Sandidge, superintendent of
Emergency Hospital, who was
named by the joint hospital board
to fill the same position at Casualty.
The position became vacant yester-
day through the resignation OF Mrs.
Margaret A. Mays.
Assisting superintendent Sandidge
in the management of Casualty will
be Ouida Munday, superintendent of
nurses, who becomes assistant super
mtendent of Casualty, actually &C.
cupying the position held by Mrs.
Mays.
Ambulance Service Improved.
According to the plans worked
out for the two hospitals the am
bulance facilities at Casualty will
be greatly improved. The newly
named superintendent declared he
planned to bring Casualty Hospital
up to the standard of Emergency
Hospital and that shortly it will
rank among the best equipped hos
pitfalls in the country.
IAN immediate start will be made
toward effecting the improvements
in Casualty Hospital" said Superin-
tendent Sandidge. ''It will only be
a few weeks before the buildings
will have been entirely gone over
and all necessary improvements
made"
Operating Equipment Good.
Equipment in the emergency
Casualty is declared to be in good
condition. This is one of the re-
suits obtained by Mrs. Mays during
her supervision of the institution.
But little Improvement will be made
in these quarters. According to
superintendent Sandidge the rela-
lions between himself and Mrs.
Mays, since Emergency Hospital
took over Casualty Hospital. have
been of an extremely cordial char
acter.
Members of the staff at Casualty
hospital rendered Mrs. Mays din
ner last night when they expressed
regrets that she had decided to re-
sign. She was presented with a
large bouquet of American Beauty
roses.
Miss Inez Martin, of the Casual
ty staff, it was learned, will assist
the newly-appointed assistant sup
erintendent who became resident
manager of the hospital today.

bushcl per acre.
(cD Fertilizer, stressing kind, guam

(d) Thick stand. More money lost
in Arkansas from thin stands than
even from the boil weevil)
(eD Poison with calcium arsenate
dust, which should be purchased and
stored on farm or plantation before
planting as II means of insurance.
(D Larger teams and better imple-
ments.
