AN OPEN LETTER

1.-THE following is one OF weekly

Dare friend. talk about money?
Well let's try ii anyway.
whats Money!" asked a lad OF
his father Yes what is It.? The
highwayman says: "YOur money or
your 1ife!" But there is no choice.
Our money is our life. Our daily
work, our ambitions, our dreams,
our love for our dear ones, and the
use of our time itself centeFs in
money 1t is inscparable from our
very existence.
Therefore to get straight on the
question Of money is to get straight
on the question of our life. So it is
worth while to thiuk of our use Of
money, isn't it?
How then Shall we use it? Ger
tainly, at Christmas, some of it must
go for the things in which God is
most Interested. | am certain that
few of us lack. in either good will
for Christian causes, or the desire
to help them. Our hearts are touch-
ed when we see need. We recognize
the cause as good. And yet Christ
ian appeals are often both perplex-
ing and irks0me.
The need always seems most ur-
gent and the appeal strongest when
we are hardest pressed for money,
The only remedy would seem TO
be to- treat Gods causes as we do
our own. We budget our accounts
for taxes. rent, insurance, food, etc.
Why shouldn't we budget Gods
causes too? That would seem TO be
only fair. And that is what tithing
Is, nothing more and nothing less

definite amount each week, instead

VISIT THE LOCAL HOSPITALS
ON MAY ~, NATIONAL
HOSPITAL DAY

Those people who think that q
hospital consists of little more than
beds, doctors and nurses will be
somewhat surprised when they visit
the local hospitals on National Hos
pital Day. Friday, May -, accord
ing to word received from Mrs.
Willard r. Pierce. who is in charge
of the National Hospital Day pro-
gram. AS a matter of fact, ii re-
quires on an average about one and
a third persons to take care of each
patient. and nearly all of these pro-
fessional workers and employees
must be clothed and fed by the hos
pital.
d.. Through the movement for better
service for the sick which has made
such headway among hospitals in
the past few years an enormous in
vestment in special equipment and
apparatus and in the services Of
trained scientists is required by ev-
cry progressive hospital in order
that every patient may have the adj
vantage of all the latest appliances
and methods in this fight against
disease. X-ray specialists. chemists,
baeteriologists and others trained to
discover and interpret various con-
ditions in the patient now are on
call or are employed on full time
basis by large number of hospi-
tails, and while this kind of service
costs great deal of money, the av-
erage hospital offers it without cost
to the poor patient and below cost
tc patients unable to pay the full
expense of such services.
The two Milford hospitals in Co
operation with thousands of hospi-
tails throughout the United States
and Canada, have arranged interest
ing programs for the information of
the people of Milford for National
Hospital Day and they cordially in
vite the general public to come to
the hospitals on May II, Last year
hundreds of thousands of people
visited the hospitals of the country
on National Hospital Day and ac-
cording to the National Hospital
Day Committee of the American
Hospital Association. Chicago, many
more will take advantage of day"
this year.
Further information concerning
the local program will be made pub
lie in the next two issues of the
Chronicle.

used as the University sees fit, as
well as large sum for maintenance
of the Reserve Officers Training
Corps. These appropriations are
jeopardized.
Several weeks ago DIR. Hullihen
spent three days in Washington with
the executive committees of the AS
sociation of Land Grant Colleges.
But his work.. as well as that OF
others, was to no avail.
DR.. Hullihen said, ut is my be-
lief, certainly my hope, that these
reductions will not be SO drastic as
to require an extensive change in
the entire organization of the
school,"
Probably the safest Of all the Fed
eral appropriations is the $4,000
for agricultural extension work in
the State, for it is through this
medium that the latest scientific de-
yelopments are passed ON to the
farmers from the agents, who act
as a clearing house for farm inn
provements from all over the world.
Whether the r. o. r. c. income to
the university, will be less, Presi-
dent Hullihen declined to predict,
but in the event it is he ventured
the opinion it will be only until the
country has recovered from the
financial stringency.

My dear Sir--I would like to say a
few words through your paper in
praise OF the Milford Emergency
Hospital F
| have had a horror of all hospi-
tails; was never in one TO be treated
myself until last winter. On Janu-
AIRY 20, 1888, | was taken to the Mill
ford Emergency. Hospital with bron-
chial pneumonia and have only
praise for Dr.. D. V. James and hts
staff of nurses. t,4
I was never treated better any
where. have often had sailors in
hospitals in different ports in the
30 years as master of vessels, and
heard them tell about the treatment
they got. Row rough the attendants
were to them. but there was moth
ing rough at the Milford Emergency
Hospital The nurses there are
pleasant and courteous; came in my
room smiling and always ready to
do anything I wished done. If any
person is bad sick, go to that hos
uildi Ill Ailnt dS Autg di6 HAcpdAcu
to treat your case. They can do q
better Job if they get you in time. I
don't think there Is any better cali
ing for a young girl than to take up
nursing and do something for hu-
manity. If we could only send men
TO Dover to make laws that would
drop politics and appropriate more
money for the hospitals. and less
for some other things. how much
better it would be for the poor.
Many people are not able to pay the
hospital for treatment. Let us hope
our legislators in the future will
think more about humanity and less
about sports, giving the hospitals
more money. so they can treat the
poor when needed. With best wishes
for DR.. James and the nurses Of the
Milford Emei gency Hospital, | am
Respectfully.
