Hospital Reports
Busy Year; Club
Women Interested
Continued from page u


Of the obstetrical cases admitted
during the past year the hospital
was required to entirely finance the
care of 101 free cases due to the
fact that the state appropriation
or county permits for the care of the
INDECENT patients does not apply
to maternity cases unless they re-
quire surgery. This service is a
tremendous financial burden on the
hospital. The state has for the past
four years appropriated $500 to the
hospital and or which amount eight
free state patients must he carried
a day. In the budget now before
the legislature $500 will be cut from
this amount. 1t does seem hard that
an institution doing such a large
amount of charitable work should
have to receive cut in it's revenue.
Mrs. ]. j. Shoemaker, chairman of
the surgical dressings committee,
reported 14,9OO dressings folded.
Others reporting dressing folded
were Howard County Auxiliary 1900,
Junior Auxiliary 1900, Takoma Park
Women's Club 1900, Missionary So
ciety Emory Methodist Church of
Oakdale 5000 and Mrs. w. B. Mob
ley of Chevy Chase 1920. The pro-
ceeds from the dance given by the
Junior Auxiliary will be used to buy
new equipment for the nursery and
delivery room.
Mrs. Thomas A. Ladson, chairman
of the sewing committe announced
an all-day meeting of that committee
for March % in the Insurance Office,
Sandy Spring. The treasurer's re-
port showed over a thousand dollars
spent for linen since October.
Much new equipment has been pur-
chased during the past year including
filing cases for the X-ray room, a
chart desk, a fracture bed and other
fracture equipment, metal trays with
pitchers for all rooms, metal serving
trays, 10 metal bedside tables, 6 metal
chairs, screens for all wards, screens
for doors of private rooms, floor
lamps for all beds, upholstered chairs
for private rooms, and individual
thermometers. All electric wiring is
being replaced with new outlets being
put in, new telephone wires and con-
nections and all rooms being painted.

BOY SCOUT NEWS
OF Troop 231

This column is being aUritten bu
the members of the Troop 2S1 IN
an e1,deGVor to shOav the citizens of
Rockville that there is an Gctive
scout troop IN Rockville, and to
teach things (Which eveYuo1e
should know about scouting. 1t is
hoped that this column will remain
a regular feature of THE SENTINEL.
In the merry month of May, 1885,
the Boy Scout Troop No. 231 was or
ganized under the leadership of Rev.
j. Lloyd Black and Mr.. Guy Carter.
At that very early date, the scouts
and scouters of troop 231 had no idea
of the fine reputation that they would
acquire for their troop. Up until the
year 1887 the troop had been gaining
reputation as good troop. In the
year 1887 our troop took top honors
of the county in advancement and
merit badges. In the year 1888 at the
county spring scout rally, troop 231
received a silver statue for winning
the majority of the scout events. We
also received cloth badges for win
ming the inspection. Again in 1888 at
a fall scout field meet our troop re-
peated this performance by winning
z out of IL medals given, and receiv-
ing streamer for the troop flag for
winning the inspection. In May 1889
our troop will hold it's fourth ami
versary father and son banquet.
Troop 231 will then be established as
a veteran troop of the county. By
summing all this up you will find
since that historic date of May, 1885,
exactly four years have elapsed in
which troop 231 has placed itself at
the top of hte list as a cracker-jack
troop of the county.
Everyone in our troop was sorry to
see our beloved scoutmaster, Rev.
Black leave US, but being something
that could not be helped, we are get
ting along fine under the leadership
of julien Hoskinson as scoutmaster
and Billy Talbort as senior patrol
leader, Walter Higgins as assistant
scoutmaster. Since the latter part of
1888 our membership has dropped
off, due to the fact that few OF our
boys have grown up and gone away
to school or college, but we are now
working hard to rebuild the member
ship to its original number.
Troop 231 has quite few things
lined up to do in the future. We plan
to build meeting place big enough
to play games and hold our socials in.
Another, we are going to make white
crosses for the county farm grave
yard We are also going to weed the
graves and make it a nice looking
place.
On behalf of my fellow scouts l
wish to extend our appreciation to the
readers of this column and to the
kindness of The Sentinel for letting
us have this column to make known
our activities to the citizens of
Rockville.

T. A. Eide, Mayor
Candidate, Has
COlOrful Career

T. A. Eide, the Farmer-Labor
and Trade Union candidate for
mayor of Minneapolis, can look
back on a life that is filed with
interesting experiences all the way.
T. A. Eide came to America
from Norway in 1903. Three years
later he came to Minneapolis where
he has made his home since with
the exception of few years spent
in travel as the foreign represen-
tative of an American concern.
Coming to Minneapolis broke
and hungry, Eide sold papers and
washed dishes in a restaurant to
earn his first keep here. Later he
worked in a sawmill and in a rail-
road yard, piling lumber. He jour
neyed out into the harvest fields
and learned about the hardships of
the harvesters by working as one
of them.
Working for an implement COM
pany, he began his world travels
and while serving in that capacity
he visited &c countries and many
islands. AS result he is well in
formed about the customs and iv-
ing in many lands. He speaks sew
eral languages.
When the Franklin Cooperative
creamery was opened here, Eide
stepped into an executive position
in that enterprise. Much of the
credit for elevating the co-opera-
tive to its first in the country
ranking is due to the efforts ex-
tended by him.
T. A. Eide is an advocate of mu-
nicipal housing to eliminate slums
and conditions of poor living. He
believes that a plan similar to the
one employed in the Netherlands
could be worked successfully in
Minneapolis.

To the Editor,
There cannot be said too much in
highest appreciation for Mrs. Villa
Wilson, 697 st. Anthony avenue,
with whom six members of the cast
of the "Mikado in Swing" stopped
while in the city of st. Paul.
She proved to be a very charm
ing hostess who seemed to think
more of the comfort of her house
guests than any mercenary rea-
sons. Here's hoping that if we are
ever fortunate enough to return to
st. Paul, we shall also be fortunate
enough to be guests in her beauti-
full home.
Yours for the "Mikado in Swing"

Other points in the platform of
Mr.. Eide includes the completion
of the upper river harbor, adequate
relief for the unemployed, taxation
at a level that makes the owner
ship of property attractive, and a
continuation of old age pensions.
Although T. A. Eide has never
been candidate for public Office
before, his business and civic ex-
perience makes him well qualified
for the office Of mayor of Mime
