THIRD BY PROF. » CAMPBELL. et i The Tuberculosis Hospital Site 'Still Receives Discussion--Were Subscriptions Given Under An Errofieous Belief ? Kingston, Oct. 15.--(To the Edit dor): | must thank Dr. Third for his answer to some. quostions, which is moro than he did for my questions. In fact, 1 am sorry to note that in both his replies, tho doctor has introduced the personal element, a thing he has no right to do, as we are discussing public question. Let _.ma just quote one of his stgtemonts : - "Fancy a genctal going inlo battle, today, with some of the guns bolster. ed up in our parks, vet that is pre cisely what Prof. Campbell would have us do in our fight against tuberen Now. this is untrue and the docto: knows jt.

"made clear that However, T am not much concerned with the personal: question. : Now Dr. Third's two statements as regards the purpose of the proposed' hospital have helped to bring down the problem to definite limite. The objection that I, with a large number of others, had to the proposed scheme was a very clear one; we thought that to- place -a regular tuberculosis sana- torium, where wo wore to have col- lected from the town as many cascs as there would be room for, An the hos- pital grounds, was not the wisest thing to do, either from the point of view of the patients or from that of the citizens of Kingston; nothing that the doctor has said has made it seem any wiser from those points of view. All that he has made clear is that the proposed site on the Straubenzoo property wound be too expensive, and I certainly bow to this argument--the question of expense is a most impor- tant one. Bui, and 1 ask everyone's carefil attention to this point, the doctor has wo were all laboring under § misapprehensibn--this is not meant to a general tuberculosis wmnatorium, to recive those who are sufiering' froin .this discase and from nothing else. "We are not aiming," rays the doctor, 'atl providing accom- modation for a large number of pa- tients, but at ollecting those who are already seatte im various depart- ments of the hospital." I may say at once that this cortainly disposes of somo of the objections that I had pres viously put forward, although it docs not make the proposed site any better whetlve there are to be sixteen or sixty patients taken in; what, in fact I take the doctor * tb 'really hold is, that this is not an 'ideal site by any means, but that is the best that can be managed under the circumstances, and further that it is diminishing the risk to the hospital. If thiz he a fair- ly correct view of the situation asl now understand it(it is the duty of the doctor to contradict. this view of the public and myself, if it is incorrect), then all I can say is, that the public have been asked for their subseripiiogs under an erroncous belief. Most of those who did subseribe, most * cer tainly did so under the heli that they were being asked to support a hospital which would collect from the town the cases of tuberculosis in Kingston--a sanatorium like that at Gravenhurst, but' on a much smaller be MARKET SQUARE. | The Pi ks'. mitted 1» vember Sth, act by-law will be sub- Picton ratepayers on No- scale; - 1 Another. consequence of this new view of the situation 1s that if we are ta have the hospital sito we can nev- er have a marked extension of the ac- , commodation, there is no room for it; National in Character, Distinctive in Appearance, Dashing in Style, Modest in Price - Features that have made Progress Brand Clothes Famous.

Dr. | Third has said nothidg to relicve this very natural apprehension of the perty holders, not ouly on George street, but everywhere in the vicinity of the hospital. > Secondly, if 1 touch on the agument from averages of re- covery, we cannot argue either way very satisfactorily from only two cases its time, the mutha shat so far has trea! in the pital grounds.

Limited Number Of Appeals. The time for receiving appeals against .assessments expired on Sat- urday. The number of appeals receiv- ed is about the same as during the past couple of years. There is no in- crease, so the work of Assessor Gor- don must have been satisfactory to the mass of the people. No assessor can be 'popular with everybody, but Kingston has an official in W. 8.
