wived the $5.00 award for first places
“What the’Hospital Means To
Our Community”
From time immemorial the object!
or reason fp^ the existence of hos
pitals or infirmaries is for the, miti
gation of/ bodily suffering arising
either from accident or disease. The
hospital is where the well being of
the sick, under the direction of *the
doctor of your choice, can he S4i^e<
guarded., It is where the nursing is
done by those who have been traihed
in all matters pertaining to the care
of the sick.. It is where your doctor’s
most. complicated directions can be
carried out exactly and quickly with
a minimum of discomfort to all con
cerned. Yoiir physdeian prescribes ac
cording to the needs of the patient.
The nurse carries out his directions
with the aid of the assembled equip
ment of the modern hospital. The hos
pital means to our community in
varying degrees, safety, comfort and
insurance, with due consideration for
physical limitations, of course. Any
pital is at once relieved of an enor
mous burden of I'esponsibility, which
is immediately realized by each indi
vidual member of the family, along
with the friends.
“What the hospital means to our
community”—
It means “The light in the clear
ing.”
It means "Refuge in the time of
storm.
“A sure retreat” for the victim of
acoident or disease. /
The' chances of transmission of va
rious types of diseases from one
member of the family, on and on un
til the malady completes the round,
is almost eliminated in cases where
the first patient is taken to the hos
pital in time.
It means a place of meeting for
your own doctors and surgeons where
they can confer and exchange their
