An earnest effort is being made to
revive. among all the churches of
Norwalk, the old custom of observ-
ing' Hospital Sunday. Some time ago
the Indies' Visitin Boarder-educated
the Board of piractors of the Hos-
pital Association to give them the
privilege of bringing about such an
observance. a request very gladly
granted by the Bosr‘d.
’ The spirit of hospital service is akin
to the spirit of the churches. Both
are dedicated to the cause or helping
humanity.
Hospitals need voluntary contribu-
tions. From a business standpoint. the
Not-walk Hospital is' a losing proposi-
ing. To date the local branch has- not: tion. If it received to aid from the
State. if it received no contributi ns
rt
from endowment. it would soon be
compelled siiber to close up. or to
enor'rnously increase in rat'es.
Nevertheless it is good hospital
practice to run a hospital as a losing
proposition. It is considered good hos-
pital practice to have a certain as
mount~ of free service or to chergei' less
than cost for- service. The Not-walk
Hospital offers no absolutbly free
