During the past year over three score of them donated 40,000 hours of work to the task of giving sick and injured children the very best chance for the recovery of health and happiness. Crippled? Deformed? Hurt in an accident? Suffering from Disease? Just "yes" to any of these questions has always opened the doors of this institution to children in need of hospital care. No distinction has ever been made in respect to race, creed or circumstances. The Provincial and Municipal Governments each contribute a fixed amount per day for those who cannot pay. But these grants do not contemplate the cost of medicines, operating rooms, oxygen, X-rays, plaster casts, anaesthetics, special diets and extra nursing--and they do not provide for the cost of many, many other neces-■ary items. Each year we depend on public subscriptions to •over these extra costs. Won't you help this very Worthy cause? Please send your gift direct to 67 College Street, Toronto. We employ no canvassers.
