CHRISTMAS GIFT - The en-
ployees of the Milford Memorial
Hospital are being given a SIS
Christmas gift this year in line
with previous practice. In an effort
to demonstrate to the surrounding
communities how the funds it pays
for hospital bills constantly re-
circulates in the community, it
was decided to make this presen-
tation this year in the form of
silver dollars. Since this SIS award
is small percentage of the month
ly payroll of the hospital, the i'm
pact may not be too significant,
but since use of silver dollars is
extremely limited, most people
will be very conscious that this
money has come from a conscien-
tious employee serving humanity.
