During the 14 years since then, its admissions of paâ€" tients have increased by 70 per cent. and its outpatient treatments have jumped by 52.7 per cent. More than oneâ€"third of the patients come from outside Metropolitan Toronto, but this oneâ€"third are those who suffer from the most acute and involved conditions. They are youngsters, from newborn to early teenâ€" agers, for whom treatments have been developed entireâ€" ly at this hospital or have been perfected by the hospiâ€" tal‘s huge staff of medical and surgical specialists. Most of these acutely ill children come from Ontario outside ‘ the Toronto area, although year round there are children from every province, and even from overseas, in its wards. Bigness in the usual genâ€" eral hospital may not alâ€" ways be considered a virâ€" tue, but according to Dr. W. Stanley Hartroft, Director of the hospital‘s Research Institute, it is of extreme value in an institution such as The Hospital for Sick Children. "In this hospital, with its 207 research people, a great number of patients is imâ€" portant," says Dr. Hartroft. d Children‘s Hospital Leader in Research It has become almost standard practice today for people to go to their bank to finance the purchase of cars and other family items. You, too, may have found it a good idea to borrow where you save â€" at your local bank. It is often simpler, because the bank already knows you as a savings customer. And it also may save you money because bank loans are lowâ€"cost loans. For borrowing and saving, and for any other bank service you may need, just visit your local chartered bank. It‘s the one place where you can get all your banking done, under one roof. Through 5,650 branches, all across Canada, the chartered banks bring fullâ€"range banking within the reach of everyone. THE CHARTERED BANKS SERVING YOUR COMMUNITY Standard equipment: a bank loan scores of doctors here who are not only pediatric speciâ€" alists but, for example, are specialists in pediatric surâ€" gery. Furthermore they also limit their surgery to one organ of the body such as the heart or brain or joints of small infants. This can be done only where a large volume of patients are treated, resulting in development of great skill and, of equal importance, opportunity for that skill to develop new techniques which then become availâ€" able everywhere." During the 90 years since the hospital first opened as a tiny sixâ€"bed infirmary in a rented house, it has amassed a tremendous number of credits for its adâ€" vances in treatments of children‘s illnesses. Doctors from 60 different nationaliâ€" ties are â€" learning _ its methods. Behind this growth and accomplishment lie two baâ€" sic realizations: That many of the problems in diseases of children are much differâ€" ent from those of adults â€" even in the case of the same disease, and that treatment methods often must differ widely from those for adults. This applies to such things as heart and orthoâ€" pedic surgery as well as illâ€" nesses like diabetes, cystic fibrosis and respiratory ailâ€" ments. This is why the reâ€" search area of the hospital has become the largest in its field in the free world. The hospital‘s growth has resulted in serious overâ€" crowding in many of its treatment and clinical reâ€" search areas. Present plans will expand these as well as launch whole new programs of research in certain disâ€" eases which are not now being investigated, such as congenital and infectious eye conditions. These plans provide for a fiveâ€"year proâ€" gram involving a $29,226,498 expenditure. More than oneâ€" half of this is expected to be provided by governments which recognize its imporâ€" tance, but $13,900,000 must be sought from public conâ€" tributions. A building fund campaign, the first since 1949 when the building was erected, will be held during April and May.
