It will be noted that several areas are not covered as yet, such as city of McHenry from .Elm to Washington and Richmond road to Riverside Drive. Workers in this section will be gratefully accepted. Also several of the outlying districts need workers, and it has been decided that if adults cannot be found who will work the areas, it will be necessary to ask some of the fine teen-agers to help. Asking for money is never a pleasant task, and it is hoped that when these people call, asking for your donation to this ver^ worthy cause, you will welcome them with a smile and put them at their ease. "Response to our appeal for volunteer workers throughout the county during the campaign period was most gratifying," Mrs. Boehm said. "More than fifty residents answered our appeal, and each volunteer now has an assignment either as a neighborhood '53 Minute Marcher' or another campaign responsibility for which they are particulary suited." Among local chairmen are Mrs. Walter Low, Ringwood: Blanche Vermillion and Dorothy Loser, Spring Grove; Mrs. Orville Gosse and Mrs. Pat Gallas, Wonder Lake; and Mrs. Gen. Boch, Richmond.

The hospital is governed by a board of directors, all citizens of the community who are serving without compensation and elected by members of the corporation. . Long Precedent George P. Freund, president of the board, remarked that Ihe hospital system in this country has a long precedent of creativity through voluntary action. Its distinguishing feature is dependence in large part upon the voluntary principle. This princple is most manifest, and society is best served, he said, when the. following criteria pre most fully met: The individual hospital has autonomy and local nongovernmental control; the hospital is responsible for its own financing and receives its support from gthose who use it and from those who donate funds or services for its con\ tinuation and improvement;^ and the hospital is not operated primarily for profit, but to provide a service. Membership application cards can be obtained at the hospital or by calling 385-2200.
