Through the thoughtfulness and generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Uhlmunn, of Highland Park, our own Highland Park hospital is now equip- ped with one of thesis machines, as a memorial to Mary Ann Benjamin, of Glencoe, whose life was prolonged by this moans‘. , _ _ As the head only, of the patient, is within the tent, he can be treated continuously for days or, if neces- sary, even for weeks (usually a few diys are enough), for all necessary intention can be given him by the Junior and thtnurse without disturb. ing the apparatus, except to feed him, give him medicine or wash his face. The cost of the oxygen /about $5 for twenty-four hours of treatment) is negligible. when we consider that it may, and frequently does, save a life. One who has seen.the prompt and surprising improvement in a des- perately ill pneumonia patient, liter being supplied with this life-giving gas, would never give a thought to the matter of its trifline cost, The benefits of this modern treat- ment of a serious and all-too-fre- qucntly fatal disease are now avail- able to the residents of Highland Park and the territory near by; and this fact gives us another reason to he proud of our hospital and to be eager to enter its kindly and helpful atmosphere whenever we are at all seriously ill. This oxygen tent is a very inter. csting piece of machinery, and those who have a yearning to see it will ho cottrteously received and “com. modated by the hospital authorities, who are more than glad to have peo- ple become thoroukhly familiar with the active and up-to-date little insti- tuticn over which they preside and which all our pcimle should under- stand and appreciate.

The moist " compart- ment, or hydrator, recently added to the line, has proved to be a very pop- ular improvement and indications point to a still greater demand when the public becomes acquainted with the advantages it affords."
