After listening on Monday to Gov.
ernor Thomas E. Dewey's address,
l couldn't help but wish that every
Republican, both those seeking cleo
ton and those making speeches in
favor of the Republican candidates,
would take a lesson from their lead
er.
Unlike some Of the speakers ]
have heard, Governor Dewey CEN
tered his address around what ne
will do as President of the United
States, if he is elected, to better this
nation of ours and to help make
the world a better place in which
to live. And one significant state
ment that he made was this:
II will not contend that all our
difficulties today have been brought
about by the present national adj
ministration."
Contrast that statement (Which by
the way was, by some strange coin
cidence, left out entirely from some
of the reports of his speech that
have read in Republican papers)
with the cheap blasts we have been
hearing lately against President
Truman and the Democratic admin
istration.

AslOOKHAG
AND
AelH$T EAHAG
BY Ellen Hagedorn

Ten days have passed and
vacation time is but a men,
ory,
The long, lazy days of sum-
mer are reluctant to bid us
farewell. Only the gradually
cooling of these September
evenings give us a faint but
definite warning to prepare for
winter.
Just as we looked forward
to, and prepared for Spring
and Summer, so we now, in a
more mellow and somewhat
melancholy mood, face Au-
tumn and Winter.
Autumn to me is a sad sea-
son. One last brilliant flash of
color and the brave leaves
wither and drift all too soon
to the hardening ground, leav-,
ing bare the once beautiful
trees which they adorned.
Then come the early frosts
with their promise of winter
SHOWS; the pungent aroma of
mounds of raked and piled
leaves burning, their blue
smoke lingering long and low,
And great big golden pump
kins in the brown fields, just
aching to be baked into piesl
And before you know it,
you'll be dashing madly about
in deliberately decorated stores,
frantically trying to find the
right gift for the right person!
Then a few more weeks and
the moist, damp smell of thaw-
ing ground and advertisements
of Easter salesl
There now. wasn't il a short
winter

Hospital Sending
Out QUESTIONABLE
Cross Section OF Community
Being Asked To Answer Set
Of Questions Designed To Get
Public Opinion On Adequacy
Of County Hospital.


The community relations COM
mittee of the Washington County
Hospital is sending several thousand
missionaries to cross section of
the 10000 residents of Hagerstown
and surrounding communities, it
was announced today by Stanley
P. F. Kline, president of the hos
pitfalls board of trustees.
Serious overcrowding at the hos
pital, Mr.. Kline explained, caused
the trustees to appoint the commun-
ity relations committee to find out
what the people who rely on Wash
ington County Hospital, think of the
adequacy and efficiency of the hos
pitfalls service
To carry out the wishes of the
trustees, the committee decided to
conduct a poll of public opinion by
means of QUESTIONABLE contain
ing 10 questions, the answers to
which will help the trustees in rem
edying present overcrowding and
will guide them in deciding on the
future of the hospital in relation to
its service to the community.
Such questions as the following
are asked:
During the last five years have
you, or has any member of your
family, been a patient in Washing
ton County Hospital?"
do you think Washington Coun-
ty Hospital is large enough and
well enough equipped to serve ade-
quately all who may apply for
carer"
do you think Washington Coun-
ty Hospital should be enlarged?"
In connection with these ques-
tons, Mr. Kline pointed out that it
has been necessary for long time
to put extra beds in sunrooms and
corridors and to establish waiting
list for patients whose treatment
can and must be postponed until
enough beds to receive them are
available.
Concerning the hospitals service,
the following are some of the ques
lions asked:
"Is the attitude of the nurses and
attendants toward patients indiffer-
ent or kindly?"
"Are the charges made to patients
who can pay their own bills too
high, fair, low, or too low?"
do you believe that the hospital
care offered this community should.
be kept abreast of the most advanc-
ed medical practice, even though
costs be increased"
would you go to Washington
i County Hospital now if you needed
hospital carer"
Those receiving the missionaries
| also are urged to write in any COM
ments or suggestions they may care
to make on any subjects relative to
the hospital which are not covered
by the printed questions.
In a foreword to the question
naire Mr.. Kline says: THAT you may
be of assistance to the trustees in
arriving at an accurate understand
ing of the thought of the community
regarding the hospital, we hope you
will answer all questions candidly.
By filling out the QUESTIONABLE and
returning it promptly in the enclos-
ed postage paid envelope, you will
be performing an important public
service 1t is not necessary to sign
your name, but you may do so if
you wish"
Mr.. Kline added that the results
of the poll, including all comments,
opinions and suggestions, will re-
ceive the most careful study by the
trustees and that analyses of the
poll results will be released to the
newspapers from time to time.
