most useful the size of the dona hon indicated is a large one and can be used in many ways with the hospital literally burs ting at the seams these days patientwise there arc many urgent needs in various areas when the gift is finalized we will have more to say about this community spirited c pany along with smith and stone and vanans this makes the third old established firm in the past few months who have recognized the needs of the hospital in a financial way we hope that many of the industries in the community will follow their lead in this canada s centennial year this would be a fine project for any industry or organization to take on by this means they would not only be commemorating the centennial in a fitting man ner but would be helping the community needs we might point out once again that ex cept for day by day operating costs the hospital depends en tirely on industry and organiza lions for new equipment and improvements often one hears the government takes care of
