In the hospitals official name
It has been like that for 81
years. a half-century Of com.
paratively happy and pros
porous growth.
Since that June 10 in 1907
when the hospital first opened
its doors on its Takoma Park
Md. site, it has grown at the
rate Of four beds year.
With its present $50 BEDS, il
Is the largest private hospital ir
the Washington area.
The institution is celebrating
its golden anniversary a month
early-this Sunday-to coincide
with Hospital Day throughout
the area. An extensive program
Is planned.
Still Retains Quiet
The hospital has managed
almost, miraculously to maintain
the quiet Of its surroundings
despite the change in the char.
acter Of the neighborhood.
This site was picked crigi.
nally because it was out in the
country" Mr.. Nelson said. "Wt
felt then. as we do now, that q
quiet atmosphere was necessary
for q speedy recovery from any
illness or injury"
Residential building on ont
side is cut of by Sligo Park. but
q crescent of homes closes the
hospital in on its other three
sides.
Actually. the hospital opened
its doors to patients four year:
before the present site wenl
into use. It then was at 2 Iowa
(now Logan circle-a building
now occupied by a dance studio
The nonprof1t institution j;
afiiliated with the General Con-
ference Of Seventh-Day Adven-
fists. It's purpose: ITO serve the
community. the Nations Capital
and the country"
There is an indication Of how
that purpose is being carried Out
in the fact that only about one
fourth of the patients-the hos
pital prefers to call them
"guests"-are Of the Seventh
Day Adventist faith.
Sought Site in 1903
Back in 1908, church officials
looked into Washington as {
possible site for their interna'
tional headquarters, a publishing
house, a school and a hospital.
They found what they wanted
In a 5O-acre tract in Takoms
Park.
A physician from Boston haC
had similar plans. He had al.
ready cleared the land. hopinl
to set up a medical institution
But the Boston doctor ran int,
financial and other difficulties
and apparently was glad to sell t,
the Adventists.
The church set up Its tenn
porary hospital headquarters OF

building with a long front porch

Travelled from the capital at Tai.
pei to officiate at the afternoon
Mass which preceded the process
sion through the streets.
The Mass was celebrated in an
auditorium attached to a public
school, the largest hall in the
town. Nevertheless half the as
sembled Catholics could not be
accommodated and were forced
to remain outside. Special trains
and buses had brought Catholics
and clergy from neighboring
missions to swell the ranks of the
local Christians.
Following the Mass, the faith
full, accompanied by three giant
floats bearing living representa-
tions of the Blessed Virgin, pro-
ceeded to the church.
Amplifiers relayed the music
of traditional Marian hymns, and
the Catholics, praying and chant
ing, walked along streets lined
with crowds of curious but silent
and respectful pagans.
The procession in Chu Tung
is but one of the many May pro-
cessions taking place this year
in towns of Taiwan where some
few years ago there were no
Catholics and no resident priests.
With the rapid increase of Catho-
lies in recent years, professions
in honor of Our Lady rival in
participation and soiemnity the
pagan professions honoring the
most popular deity in Taiwan-
Ma Tsu, GODDESS of the Seas.
Chu Tung is in Hsin Chu -
one of the five countries COM
prising the Archdiocese of Taipei.
Jesuit Fathers of seven nation
alities, under the direction of
Father Eugene Fahy. ST., of San
Francisco, the ousted Prefect
Apostolic of Yangchow on the
mainland, are active in Hsin Chu.

Pope Composes

VATICAN CITY NC - His
Holiness Pope Plus XII has COM
posed a special prayer to be re
cited by pilgrims going to
Lourdes during the centenary of
the Marian apparitions there

The following is an unofficial
translation of the prayer, TO
which a three-year indulgence
is attached for every time it is
recited near the Lourdes grotto:
Needing your voice, o Inn
msevlsse Virgin of Lovrdes,
we hasten TO your feet st the
humble groffo where you
deigned TO appear TO show fhe
way Of prayer and penifenee
TO those ssfrsy, and to dispense
to the stricken the graces and
wonders of your unsurpassed
kindness.
Receive, o MercifuI Queen
the praise and svppliestions
which peoples and nations, op-
pressed by bitterness and snx-
iety, frvsffully raise 10 you.
20 fair vision of paradise,
Danish the darkness of error
from our minds with fhe light
of faith! o Mystical Rose, re-
lieve crushed souls with the
heavenly fragrance of hope!
o inexhaustible source of heal
ing waters, revive barren
hearts with the flow of divine
love!
Grant that all of Us, your
sons and daughters, eomforted
by you in our sorrows, pro-
fecfed in our danger and eided
in our struggles, may love and
serve your gentle Jesus, and
merit eternal happiness near
your heavenly throne"
