ANNUAL GARDEN
 PARTY PLANNED
Proceeds to Aid St. Mary's Special Medicine Fund;
 Dr.. Brennan, Chairman

The seventh annual garden party sponsored by St. Marys Hospital Special Medicine Fund Committee will be held on June 24 at the resi- dence of Mrs. Frank Fqoto, Ss5 Ham, ilton avenue. Announcement of the event was made at meeting held at the hospital last Friday evening. Dr. P. J. Brennan is gen. eral chairman. A general meeting of committees will be held Wednesday night of this week at the hospital to make further arrangements.
 Each year, with the exception of one, since 1884, this event has been held, its purpose to raise O fund to furnish special medicines and ser- vices for those unable to pay for these. The Idea of the special medicine fund was started by a group of the hospital doctors and since it was originated has become an an. nual event. It has the endorsement of Mother Sacred Heart, superinten- dent and treasurer of the hospital, as well as staf fphysicians. It takes care of various theraptes, use of the oxygen tent, cost of serums and medicines that would be denied patients If 1t were not for the exist ence of the special medicine fund.
 The amount raised each year has increased, but as 1t Is continually drawn from so the necessity of maintaining the fund as a perman- ent thing can be realized.
 Many new features are being planned for this years garden party. As In former years 1t will be held on the grounds of Mrs. Floto's home during the afternoon and evening. Cards will be played and other games, refreshments served and tn- portant announcements from loud speakers. Further details and com mittees will be announced soon.
