than you could buy ready-made for
three times the money. Tastes pleas
ant and never spoils.
This Pinex and Syrup preparation
gets right at the cause of a cough and
gives almost immediate relief. It
loosens the phlegm, stops the nasty
throat tickle and heals the sore, irri-

that it is really astonishing.

the ordinary cough and for bronchitis,

DEBATE BEFORE
STUDENT ASSEMBLY

The idea Of holding the debate OF
the Bowdoin Interscholastic Debating
League during school hours with the
students and visitors In attendance,
originating at Cony High school this
year and communicated to Bruins
wick and Edward Little High schools,
the two other schools in the Cony
triangle, has met with the approba-
ton Of the two schools. and as re-
suit the Cony- Brunswick debate,
which Is to be held here next FRI
day will take place at a special as
sembly In Assembly hall at o'clock
in the afternoon instead of In the
evening as has been customary.
1t is felt at Cony that debating Is
of the utmost Importance, and that
because of it's non-spectacular ma
ture, it is not receiving the attention
and interest that 1t merits. 1t Is be-
lieved that by presenting the debate
before the student body, interest may
be generated that will react favor
ably and for the good of the debat-
ing teams.
In addition to the student body, all
who desire to hear this debate are
cordially invited to attend. Superin-
tendent Of Schools Burrill will act as
chairman.
The question for debate this year
Is Resolved. that the United States
government should own and operate
the coal mines. The Cony affirma-
tive team consisting Of Mary jack
son, '26; Robert Leadbetter. '27; with
Rosamond Cole, '29, as alternate, will
meet the Brunswick High negative
team. The Cony negative. composed
of William Weeks, '27; Marion White,
'27: and Marion Goldberg, '27, as al
ternate, will meet the Edward Little
affirmative at Auburn. To get into
the finals of the league it Is neces-
sary for both the negative and af-
firmative teams Of one school to win
their debates.

condition, and we sincerely hope that
it will be repaired in the early part

Through the kindness Of one of our
Trustees, our patients on Ward x
are enjoying new dishes Of an at
tractive pattern. These, together with
extra delicacies which our dietitian
is able to plan, offer a little more
attraction to patients desiring dainty
service.
In October the Hospital suffered
the loss of it's faithful and efficient
superintendent. Miss Isabel G. TAFT.
Her assistant, Mrs. Fredericka G.
Lancaster, also resigned. In Novem-
Der, Miss Beryl McFadden came to
us as full time instructor. The
larger part of her time is spent in
classes with the students, for both
theoretical and practical instruction,
and the remainder Is devoted to fol-
! lowing up the results of this instruc-
ton. to see that it is put into action
on the wards.
A dietitian, Miss Marion Purcell,
has been added to the working staff.
| She has taken complete charge of
| the buying, cooking, and serving of
! food in the entire hospital, and will
| later take over the housekeeping and
| the laundry. Already a lowering of
| the food bills has been noted, and 1t
| is expected that her services will
mean a financial saving over and
above the salary paid. Furthermore,
the doctors have at their disposal

ming of special diets and food values
Efforts are being made to carry
out the vote of the Directors, by Sc
curing guarantee of payments from
those arranging for admission Of pa
tents. We sincerely appreciate the
cooperation of the doctors along
these lines, without which we could
not have succeeded as far as we
have.
We regret the resignation Of DR..

Der Of the Staff Of the Hospital
since,
On Donation day, our friends were
extremely generous, may we take
this opportunity of expressing our
appreciation and our patients graft
| tude to all who helped to make the
day so successful. We also wish to
extend our thanks to the choir OF
st. Marks church for their carols,
and to our generous and thoughdul
friends who once more made CHRIST
mas happy for the patients.
Permit me here to express my ap-
probation for the cooperation and
assistance given me by the members
of the Board of Directors, the Med
ioal Staff, the Ladies' Aid, my CO.
workers and employees at the Hos
pital and especially to the retiring
superintendent Miss TAFT for her
kind reception, and her cooperation
and advice.

ent situation. but to plan for the fu-

not go on. as an up to date city,
without the community hospital,
which is now so common even In
our smaller communities. The high
cost of living has worked with us
both ways. First in materially In
creasing the cost of operating, as
everything entering into the life of
an institution has been high, and
there is always hesitancy in advanc-
ing prices in an institution like ours,
as many of those we treat are un-
able to pay at a high rate. We have
advanced our prices quite material

were quite a little behind other SIM

wipe out our debt. various other
! calls were made ON our citizens
which made it seem wise to defer
such an effort. with the result that
we have increased rather than cut

to clean up our outstanding obliga-
