Today, there are such little things needed which almost any person could supply and which would mean so much to a patient: two or three electric fans, some floor rugs, radios-surely, there are persons in this community who can give those.
 Repairs Funds Needed
 From my personal experience I know that plumbing and lighting fixtures need repair. Why don't people of Palmer do something about this? It might be their own children who will be there next.
 People seldom plan to go to a hospital-it happens to most of us as sudden emergency. Tomor- row it might be you.
 From my experience there in the past two weeks when they saved my life, want to say that for courtesy and kindness, for eff ficient treatment within the full limits of their facilities, Palmer has the biggest little hospital" in the Territory.
Valley frontiersman., 1951-06-01

As veteran of World Wars and II, I've seen lot of hospital ization. I have been in some of the finest and biggest and best equipped hospitals in the nation. But our little hospital in Palmer has the human touch they could not give.
 The present need of the Valley hospital for funds for essential repairs and equipment could be met if wage earners would give one days pay-if business houses would donate 10 percent of one days net receipts.
 Palmer does not need a hos pital as big as Anchorage but it does need one as good. At pres ent there are no facilities for con- tagious deseases; there's a lack of private rooms; equipment and supplies are needed. Let's help provide them.
 Words cannot express the grati- tude I feel for what the biggest little hospital" has done for me.

WE'VE BEEN TOLD OFF l!

 Mr. Rasmussen procoin1s We intend to pub- fish O small throW-owoy sheet on and feel that tt will be much more effective there will not be anymore sIonderous propaganda against the Coop in it."
 Frankly, # Mr. Rasmussen wishes to produce his own advertising medium, it's okoy with us Although we do not concur with his thought thot it would be
 Further, Rasmussen adds thot his orgonizo- ton regrets being forced to discontinue patronage to local industry, "but in view of certon events find tt necessary to do so" How sad!
 Rosn7ussen's first motive for discontinuonce of advertising n paper appears too weak and insig nficont We refuse to believe he intended it to be taken seriously.
 We are rother inclined to believe Mr. Rosn1ussen's lost stotennent is apparently the sole for his boycott.
 Ar. Rasmussen wasn't os specific os he could hove been in expressing his motives for the boycott but we'll guess O little.
 No doubt he feels his unquestionobe integrity has been besnnched, and his tender feelings annoyed by several statements revealed in letter printed in last weeks issue Of the Frontersnon. The letter drafted by City Council members to the Co-Op after negotiations hod fallen through with Mr. Rasmussen concerning larger and improved water system for Palmer
 We've been told by reliable authority thot Ros- nussen agreed to several certain stpuotions- Of which is causing most of the squobbe- -whereby the Coop would take on the project of enlorging and n proving the water system without financial ossstonce from the city,
 It alleged that Rasmussen made this settlement and others, in the presence Of CouncInoen Mick and Hagen and Territorial Department Of Health official
 It is further alleged that Rasmussen, ofter n7ok- ing the agreement, ct later date changed his mind and requested financial assistance from the city before the Coop would do onything about the water situo- ton.
 Thot is the water squobbe in nutshell.

winter may be in the home
stretch-but drivers should keep
track of their caution"
Delaware's drivers were given
that warning Today by John D.
Reeder, President of the Delaware
Safety Council, who pointed out
that there is still a good chance of
occasional ice, sleet and snow be-
fore spring.
safe winter driving habits are
not yet ready for storage just be-
cause we've had a few days of
sunny weather." Mr. Reeder said.
''The biggest factor in fatal ac-
cidents during the winter result
from slippery road surfaces caused
by freezing rains or fast snow fur
ries. Icy patches in shaded areas
are another hazard.
Motorists also should keep in
mind that driving during cold wea-
ther has imposed strains on their
car that may have weakened equip
ment to the point where repairs are
needed. An inspection of the ex-
haust system is a good starting
point. Windshield wipers and de-
frosting equipment should be ready
for instant use"

O'clock excepting those standing in
line at the polling place awaiting
an opportunity to vote as soon as
the election officers could aeeomO-
date them.
If the court ordered the ballots
OF that district rejected, it would
be bound for the same reasons to
reject the ballots cast at RehOboth
Beach, Lewes, Milton and Millville
where the Republican candidates
had total pluralities ranging from
511 to $50, it is maintained. The
answers aver that the same prac-
tice Of permitting voters in line by
s O'Clock to vote after the hour was
followed at those places. About 20
such ballots were cast at RehObOth
Beach, 20 at Lewes, 20 at Milton
and so at Millville, according to the
defense.
The mandamus proceedings were
instituted by Leroy NJ. Mitchell,
defeated Granville d. BOyce for
prOthonOtary; Nelson w. Meredith
defeated by Woodrow w. Morgan
for register of wills; Raymond E.
Ringler, defeated by Charles E.
Hudson for recorder of deeds;
Robert D. S. Mustard, defeated by
Reuben L. Savage for sheriff, and
George D. Atkins, since deceased,
defeated by William S. MARVEL III
for coroner.
Mr. Tunnell, in the petition filed
on behalf Of Boyce, Morgan, Hud-
son, Savage, and Marvel for the
right to intervene as defendants,
pointed out that they are the ones
directly affected while the respOn-
ents named in the proceedings
Chancellor WOlcott and Judge
Carey-are in the matter by reason
of their judicial positions and it
would be improper for them to ap-
pear in the court proceedings even
! If they were so inclined.
BOyce's answer has an additional
deftnse that to reject the Seaford
ballots would not charge his elec-
tiOn and Marval sets up the addi-
tiOnai point that his opponent, Mr.
Atkins, died last December 9th.
