Previous to enjoying luncheon in the cafeteria of the building, the visitors inspected its three floors, one given to offices, recreation rooms and cafeteria, the other two to residence rooms for employes of the hospital. Completed and furnished Hendrey house will represent an investment of approximately $275,000. It has been erected slightly to the north of the isolation building, fronting the west. It is of fireproof construction throughout. Floors, walls and furnishings are of this character. The rooms for men and women are divided by steel doors which will be kept locked and segregate the two parts of the dormitory quarters. There are 121 individual rooms provided, 100 of which will be immediately occupied when the building is put into use within the next month. It is practically ready now except for the lighting. Each of these rooms is equipped with steel bed, dresser and desk table, and a comfort- able wicker chair, and attractive white spreads and other bedding provided. A unique plan will be worked out in the cafeteria arrangement of the place. Employes, instead of having a provi- sion made for their food, will be paid more wages and will pay for their own board. They will be free to eat any- where else, although the cafeteria will provide an excellent variety at slightly lower cost than the average eating place can offer it. Of its high quality there was no doubt to the auxiliary members and press representatives who lunched there Thursday. For their meal initial use of the cafeteria equip- ment was made. The use of the building and the plan of operation were briefly outlined at CORRECT GLASSES Delays are dangerous, both to your eyes and to your health.

Mrs. Clarence Williams, in charge of the library at the hospital, briefly outlined its needs, making request for Christ- mas gift "best sellers" after they are read, and for a large-print Bible. She also asked for volunteer work with the library for two hours each Friday af- ternoon between 2 and 4. Mrs. Robert M. See, giving the fi- nancial report, spoke particularly of the flower fund which has been created by a $25 gift from Mrs. Patten. It is arranged in accordance with a grow- ing custom whereby those who choose to do it instead of sending flowers at the time of a bereavement, send a note informing mourners that they have given a certain sum to a certain cause. This fund will buy flowers for hospital patients who might not otherwise have them during illness and convalescence.
