NOTES

The Wraugell General Hospital, formally opened in this town on Tuesday, March 3oth, is one of the most completely equipped hospitals in the North today.
 It is a monument not only to the Rt. Rev. Peter Trimble Rowe. Bishop of Alaska, who supplied the money to build and equip the hos pital, but to the energy and initia- tive of the citizens of Wlangell as we'll The project was launched on May 17th. -e25. ald ieilt. e1UiD- ped and furnished in less than one year, truly a remarkable record and one that the committee as well as as the contractor may justly feel proud.
 The beautiful site of the hospital was purchased by the city council of Wrangeil, and given to the hos pital, deed to which is recorded in the name of Bishop Rowe. The beautiful corner stone, all cut and ready for laying was a gift of the Vermont Marble Works from their quarry at Tokeen.
 The hospital building itself is a splendid structure. three stories in height with room for twenty-four beds. There are a number of pri- vate rooms with bath, a beautiful big homelike sun room and kitchen that would be the delight Of any housewife.
 The work was done under the supervision of N. Nussbaumer, and has been most satisfactory from the time that the first spade of earth was turned until the turning over of the completed job and the formal opening of the hospital.
 
 The committee having the work in hand consisted of Charles Ben jamin, chairman, Mrs. ". W. Me Laughlin, secretary, A. E. Gurr, treasurer, and A. Sorset, H. R. Coulter, H. W. Gartley, Leo McCor- mick and John G. Grant.
 The operating room is completely equipped to handle any kind of surgical operation, hot and cold running water, sterilizing tanks, modern instrument cabinet and a modern X-Ray machine.
 pr. Roscoe L. Clark, physician in charge, is a graduate of the Medical School of the University o Pennsylvania. He has been prac- ticing in Philadelphia and is a re- cent arrival in Alaska He came to Wrangell last October and since his arrival has more than made good in the masterly manner 4n which he has handled the cases which have come before him.
 
 Miss Gordo Wilson, graduate nurse of St. Luke's Hospital of Chi cago, will be superintendent. Miss Wilson is a Prince Rupert girl and has had great deal of experience in hospital work and is thoroughly competent to handle any case that may come to the hospital.
 Mrs. McCreery, matron of the hospital, has been employed in a like capacity in both Seattle and Portland and has the experience necessary to qualify her for the responsible position that she holds.
 4s#
 The cost of the Wrangell Gener- al Hospital, completely equipped and opened will be slightly over fifty-two thousand dollars.

FORD TURNS
TURTLE TUESDAY

A Ford sedan turned completely
over last Tuesday afternoon at the
intersection OF the Bruneau and

leave the road and turn over, None
of the occupants of the car were in
jured although the entire top was
demolished.
This turn has become more or less
of a nuisance to tourists, during the
past several years ten or twelve ac-
cidents have occurred ait that partic-
ular point and in several instances,
