Campaign Fund, the Board OF Direc-
tors, members of the Executive Com.
mitteees of the Hospital and the
Woman's Board.
The Hospital, opened March /, 1920
has been called one Of the most rural
hospitals in America. It is situated al
Olney, Maryland, in peaceful coun.
try location, on an estate of thirteen
acres. It began as rural community
enterprise, that its residents might
have available within a few minutes
ride, the same fine professional care
and attention that had up to that
time been obtainable only in Wash
ington and Baltimore institutions.
For a time the hospital administer
ed only to the needs of the immed-
late vicinity, but as its facilities were
gradually expanded and it became
better known, patients began to ar
rive from all over Montgomery Coun-
ty, as well as from adjoining coun-
ties and the District of Columbia. To-
day 85 per cent of its patients come
from distance beyond a five mile
radius, while only the remaining IL
per cent are neighborhood patients
who live as close as five miles.
The hospital at the present time,
has capacity of forty beds and six
bassinettes for babies. It is open to
all races and creeds. The Board Of
Directors points out that the demands
for hospital care are constantly in ex-
cess Of this limited bed space. This il
understandable when it is known that
forty-one out of sixty-one physicians
who are members Of the County Med
ical Association, use the hospital with
fair regularity.
The rapidly increasing number OF
automobile accidents on the country
roads has also added to the burden OF
the hospital, and increased its need
for more space and better surgical
equipment. Hardly day passes that
one or more persons, seriously in.
jured in traffic accidents are moi
brought to the hospital for emergency
treatments. In many cases they are
unable to be moved for days or weeks
and in great majority of cases, they
are unable to make any payment
whatever for the care received.
The hospital is largely directed by
members Of the old families Of Sandy
Spring neighborhood. 1t is a principle
with the Managing Board that no an
nual operating deficits be incurred.
The hospital balances It's budget an
nually, and therefore, no appeals have
been made to the public to defray
yearly operating expenses. Any sur
plus that results from any years OPP
GRAFTON Is applied to reducing the
small mortgage Indebtedness or to the
purchase Of new equipment.
The hospital is supported by reve-

patients on a permit basis, State
appropriation earned on a per capita

61.3PERCENT

For the full year Of 1886. both
residential and non-residential
building showed sharp gains over
1885.
The increase for the two classes
of building combined amounted
to 61.3 per cent, according to the
Alexander Hamilton Institute. Last
year represented the third consecu-
tive year of expansion. AS COM
pared with the low for the depreS-
sion in 1888, the volume of build
ing in 1886 was 1851 per cent
larger and it exceeded the volume
in any year since 1890.
At the same time, building &C
tiYlty in 1886 represented the re-
CoVery of only part of the ground
lost in the slump after 1923. The
amount Of building last year was
equal to only 42.l per cent of the
record nigh total in 1928.

 Tex Heavy Hitter
 Kimball had plenty of offensive aid from his mates, the Moose totalling l6 hits. including flag lund's homer and five two-base knocks. Heavy gun of the Pap cannonade was Tex Hawkins, who made use of his five turns at the platter by rapping out four singles and a two-bagger. Haglund gar- nered besides his homer, two dou- pies and single in six trips The rest of the Paps hit one apiece.
 Both clubs flashed fair brand of fielding, though the Moose seem ed a bit dumb in the earlier in- ningsp coming up with double murder apiece, but weakened some toward the last. Kimball tried to give away the game in the third frame, when he handed out a dou- ble and three walks, which the Elks combined with wild throws by Kim ball and Poster for three runs, to take a to l edge, However, Kimball settled down enough to himself assure all three Elks' outs in that inning, via the whiff route. Kim ball famed IA batters, in all, during the game, but walked eight others.
