A hospital stands for preparedness, and by being 30 prepared is a safe guard for public health in emergen- cies, contagious disease and general nursing. In emergency cases the hospital often proves a life saver. Under the present condition emer- gency cases have to be taken to a hos- pital in a nearby city.

In cases of illness 3 hospital pro- vides a quiet. restful place, where the patient may be free from household annoyances and cares. It affords the best of nursing, and lhe latest con- veniences and methods known to the medcial profession. which are impos‘ siblc to have in the home. A hospi- ml is health insurance and should arouse a civic pride in keeping our city healchy. From the dvctor's standpoint iti means greater efficiency. It provides. him with a more complete and up-tooi date place in which to work and ob- serve his patients. His orders are more faithfully followed. his labors-l tory tests are more complete, his op-i erating and also sick rooms are more- \ sanitary than can be had outside the. hospital. He is better equipped tol safeguard the public by being pre-; pared to make complete water. milk, and food analysis. The doctor comes in contact with other members of his profession and by so doing an exchange of ideas takes place which tends to promote efficiency and arouse in him more in- terest in his profession. With a city like ours, standing for progress, with its fine churches, schools, clubs and homes and what they mean. why not a hospitai in the interest of humanity."
