Hospital opens drive
for equipment Monday

Final shove needed to
Joperating will be set in
army of more than 300
jon doors throughout sou’
drive to raise $55,000.

‘This amount is needed to buy
beds. and ‘bedding, machines,

truments and kitchen equip-

ent for the hospital, which is
rapidly approaching comple-
‘on, *

S >. pian) the
hospital just as
soon. as we have the, funds for
equipping 16° V. A. McPher-
sop, Hospital Society ‘president,
said in announcing the cam:
paign's launching.

He predicted at the present
rate of progress the hospital
structure will be completed by.
October and it would be pos-
sible to have it operating by the
end of the year if the current
drive reaches its target.

Funds so far ralsed by the
community, amounting to more
than $100,000 in cash and vol-
unteer labor, are sufficient to
complete’ the hospital’ building
but will not take care of equip-
ping and carly operating ex-
penses.

EXPANSION FORESEEN

Building costs were increas
ed_ over tho original éstimate
to meet requirements of the
senior governments for future
expansion and to warrant maxl-
mum grants, the Hospital So-
clety head said, but he stressed
that the final design gives the
community a greatly improved:
hodpital with sufficient services
to handle an additional forty
beds,

He estimated another 40 beds
could be added for the Com-
paratively low price of $100,000,
‘or just one-third the cost of
the original 37-bed building.

In the coming drive canvas
wers will aak for cash dona-
tions only. Pledges will be dis
‘couraged in order to minim
‘accounting and recording, but
Post-dated cheques or promis
fory notes will, be accepted
from householders who wish to:
further ald the hospital but are
unable to make fmmediate don
ations.
