W. J. ONYON SALES and SERVICE COLBORNE, ONT. If you have anything to sell, or want to buy anything--try our Condensed Ads. on Page Five that He's YOUR BOY! AND, while we're still in a fanciful mood, let's suppose he has suddenly become seriously ill-- Then, imagine yourself to be in financial difficulties ■--your income, never more than $900.00 a year, has ceased altogether because the factory has shut down temporarily. You think your little boy may be dying--the doctor orders you to rush with him to the Hospital for Sick Children -- you learn it*s Pneumonia of the most serious type -- that serums alone will cost over $400.00, to say nothing of the special graduate nursing and expert medical attention required, nor of the cost of hospitalization itself. Could you be turned away because of this? There is only one answer to this question. It has been the answer of the Hospital for Sick Children for 63 years-- a youngster's real need for hospital care and medical attention is the only ticket of admission required. Race, creed or financial circumstances are not considered. We know the people of Ontario want it that way. •> This Hospital has met every emergency which has developed during the 63 years of its existence. It is famous throughout the civilized world for the success and efficiency of its medical and nursing staffs and for the low cost at which it is operated. And who pays for this humanitarian work? The doctors give their time absolutely free. The Ontario Government pays 60c per patient per day and the patient or the patient's municipality pays $1.75 on the same basis. That leaves over $1.00 per patient per day of bare cost for which we must appeal annually to humane and generous citizens. This Hospital does NOT share in the funds collected by the Federation for Community Service because patients are admitted from all over Ontario. This year, over $83,000.00 is needed. That means over ten thousand donations if they were to average $8.00 each--or over twenty thousand averaging $4.00. Certainly, a staggering total! So, please make your gift as large as you possibly can. If you cannot afford more--remember that even a dollar bill helps pay for the care of somebody's baby. Kindly mail your donation to the Appeal Secretary, 67 College Street, Toronto. We cannot afford to use any of our much-needed revenue for canvassers or other organized effort to collect money. ^ HOSPITAL for SICK CHILDREN 67 COLLEGE STREET, TORONTO
