ARTHUR YATES HOSPITAL
 HAS CLOSED DOORS

After nearly 21 years of continu- ous service to the residents of ..etchikan and the vicinity, the Ar thur Yates Memorial hospital closed it's doors to patients on Saturday for the first time during its long period of operation. 4 The hospital was originally com menced by the Reverend MT. Jenk- ins in 1904 as the St. Johns Mis- that name until several years ago when the plant was endowed by the family of Arthur Yates of Ro- chester, New York. The hospital was maintained out of funds pro- vided by the Episcopal Board of Missions who paid the salaries of the hospital force and charged the patients upon a strictly cost basis.
 With the location of another hospital in Ketchikan the Missions Board has felt that there is no longer pressing necessity for it's plant here, while other points in Alaska are without adequate hos pital facilities and it is expected that much of the plant will be moved within a short time.
 Definite plans as to what Is to be done with the hospital will be announced as soon as the vestry of St. Johns can hold a meeting. l.. S. Ferris, treasurer of the vestry is now absent in the states and un- til his return it is not expected that a meeting can be held Bishop Peter Trimble Rowe of the Diocese of Alaska, is now in Seattle but is expected to be here during the lat ter part of the week and local men expect him to take a part in the proceedings. Bishop Rowe has felt that the local plant should be nov ed to a point of greater need and has so expressed himself at various times during the past year or two Patients who have been at the Arthur Yates hospital are now be- | ing accommodated at the General hospital. al.-Ketchik Chronicle.

Ketchi- kan gave a big benefit for it last year and the people of Wrangell are glad of the present opportun- ity to send generous check to help in it's plan to extend its str vice.
 Mrs. s. D. Grant, Community nurse, who is leading the move ment, is very much gratified at the interest and ready response which is being shown in the pro- posed benefit.
