ThPle spirit. af thie oid tawuî hawever eau quite easily tie out inless somethîiîg is donc ta keep it alive. The reunion idea liclps ta keep that spirit alive, aînd maintains outside af the comumuni- ity a grolîp ai boosters who are ever talking and iooking back in sncmory 's lane ta ftic place that gave tlix birth and carliest op- portuiîities. One lias hardly ta look aroiid ta sec evidenves of what this spirit inieans. At Enniskillcîî stands a fine parsoilage. andtia beautifîîlly ceqnipped chuîrch, a mîoîinuent ta former Enniskillen boys wlio lovedti thir commnnity, and whio -wilIl ikely- be anîoîîg the boys ta rcturiî ta the coining reunion to rcnew their vouthi.

AIl aliont us are cvi- dences like these ai former public spirîted citizeuis who rernember their eoinînuniitv whcn they go beyoîîd its confines ta work out their lifc's destiny. The reunion scie- duled for Aîigust 28 - 3th tloes nînchi ta keep up that "esprit. de corps" that loyalty and devotion ta ane's community that means s0 much ta hoth the individual and ta the comlmunity. Hospital Needs Public Support ln a story elsewlierc iin this issue is re- lated recent necessary imnprovenents mnade by the Board at Baowmaniville Hospital. Thraughout the pasi few years the growing number af indigent patienîts lias made it difficult for the hospital to operate effe- iently, without any thouglit at aIl ai lepairs or improvements. With better tiles here, and with moicy betueathed by thie laie Jeuî- nie MeNeili and thie late .John Abraiani, the Board lias seemi fit ta go alîead withî work that hias been greatly needeti. Tlîe fact that these îîecessary iiuprovenients have been hcld up so longr serves ta show- the necd af a greater interesi in thîis imipor- tant institution. Hospitalsare not self-slip- porting institutions. Eveti if every patient paid his or lier way hospitals wonld liai be self-supprting. The alternîative wonld be higher rates, but the average persoîî caniiot afford to pay higlier rates. hi seems thîcre- fore that citizens who have been blessed with a litile more than average wealtli ehould become actively interesied in the hos- pital. There is mare than one way ai show- ing ihis interest. One eau leave mouie.\ i the form ai a leg-aey ta the hospital iin a will, or yau may sponisar a roni or wartl in the hospital and bie responsible for it.s main- tenance and cquipment. As uill be seen by the story referred ta many citizelîs and groups are doing thîs but there aie still knore rooms in need ai sponsors. If cadi -room in the hospîtal is eared for thîis way the cosi ai operatiiing is considcrably redue- ed and with financial worries out ai tlîe way more efficient service iay be given and more modemn equipment instalhed. Tlîe greatest need at the preseuit time is an cIa- vator. This will cost a considerable sum ai xnoney, and it is hopcd that same citizen will remiember Bowmanville Hospital in making his or lier will thîs vital need, and provide the wherewithal to camplete the work. There is nothing much beiter to leave money ta than an institution aperat- ing to relieve the suffering ai humaîîkind. Living Within One's Income John 0.
