o-— —— 0 Address Given By Hr. Harry G. Hill Yesterday j 6 o Dr. Hurry G. Hill, president of the Indiana (’ollegc of Music mid F’lno I Arts, IndlminpollH, in his address nt the dedicntlon of the Adilins County Memorial Hospital yesterday, said In part: Hitman Institutions me the material •j nihols of human thought. Chun lies I express our religious emotions; .-. heels our respect mid desire for l knowledge; homes our love for our dear ones; mid Government shows our I desire to safeguard the common rights .-.nd secure the hlesslngk of life for our neighbors. *. hospital is the institutionalizing of human sympathy, mid the desire to relieve pain. Sinh institutions are erected by those who are well, for those who are sick. They mo provisions for what may happen to anyone of us ut any time. No human quality is more Godlike than sympathy. Sympathy is our effort to put ourselves in the other fellow' place and enter fully into his thought and feeling. Sympathy is the volunteering to share any condition with others. This is unselfishness indeed! ‘‘Greater love hath no man [than this, that he will lay down his IJife for a friend."

clan". Most of his mighty miracles were performed because of Ills com- | passion for tin* woes of others. Wherever he saw pain, or sickness, * or sorrow, or death, there he was with kind words, ministering deeds ami loving, encouraging precepts. Those who would walk in the footI Ln Ki DR. HARRY G. HILL steps of the Master cannot hope to do so and leave out the effort to relieve sickness, prevent suffering and stamp out every ill that flesh can experience. The co-operating effort of the people of Decatur and Adams county to provide a health-home which shall keep its doors open to every man. woman or chilli who suffers, is one of the most commendable efforts of the many public spirited enterprises in which tills community has ever engaged. 1 would emphasize two things; first, intensive mid extensive instruction of every citizen concerning the body, its i functions, it spurts and its care. I would teach the importance of proper food, exercise, bathing and development. I would train men and women to observe the laws of health by taking every precaution to prevent dirt and filth ami . insanitary conditions of all kinds. The human race must learn to prevent disease before it even gets a start. Precautions costs less and is easier to apply than cure. Every reputable physician aspires to keep people healthy rather than to try to restore them after they are sick. Medical science of the future hopes to build up, rather than restore. The .very complexity of society and the growing delicacy of the functions of human beings requires Hie most con-

slderiilioti ami exact adjustment. Behind all this, however, is still a blonder principal. 1 know 1 have the support of every physician, every nurse mid everyone at all interested or Informed about public health when ) refer to it. Hospitals exist for those who are victims of broken law’. Normal man Is healthy. The good God never intended that any of hi.- creatures should suffer. Disease is the peunlty imposed by nature on those who directly or indirectly infringe upon natural Law;. The heart of humanity Is big enough to extend aid and pity even to those who err. Hut that is not the point 1 wish to make. I'or all these, and other ideas, this Institution stands today. It is ‘‘of the people, for the people anti by the people.” As such we dedicate it In the name of the Great Physication, that itmay become a haven of hope for tin siik, that it may be a home ot_ harmony for the deseased, that it mny serve the highest purposes of those whose dream is this day come to pass In the name of the One’who looked up on sick humanity and had compassion upon them, we consecrate it to the sei vice of all those who are weary and heavy laden, that in they may find peace •and health, and restoration to tile normal paths of life. ______ o Fine Program Held In Tent In Afternoon (Continued from page one) of Borne, composed of forty men and women, sang "Tile Radiant Hath Passed Away.” This talented musical organization never fails to please its audience and those present yesterday were delighted with the selection rendered. Dr. Hill Speaks Dr. Harry Hili, who has giv n addr; -sos fti Decatur on previous occasion; and who is known to many local people through his activities as an jnr-'tructor in the Heppert Auction School, was introduced by Mr. Smith, following Hie selection by the Mennonite choir, and he gave a very inspiring talk. Dr. Hill lias a wonderful delivery and is a deep and clear thinker. Like Dr. Good, he complimented the Adams county citizens on their wonderful new hospital. "A hospital " said Dr. Hill, “is the instituiio.iizing on human sympathy, and the desire to relieve pain. No human quality is more God-like than sympathy.” He emphasized the necessity for instruction of citizens concerning their bodies, in preventing diseases. Mrs. Holthouse Sings I At the dose of Dr. Hill's address. -Mrs. L. A .Holthouse, of this city, sang. "Ave Marie.” This was greatly enjoyed by the audience. The Rev. Fatdier J. A. Seinietz, rector of the St. Mary's Catholic church, pronounced the benediction. Tlie tent was too small to accoma■late all who desired to hear the program, and many were standing around tlie sid.es of the tent. On the platform were saated the speakers; the board* of trustees; Miss Emilio Crist, the superintemlent nurse; Mrs. Boltin use. Dr. Patterson, Rev. Bridge and Father Seinietz. Visitors Inspect Budding Following the completion of the program, nearly everybody visited tlie hospital and marvelled at its beauty. The building, constructed of buff bricks and trimmed in stone, and situated on a five acre tract in the south part of the city on what was formerly tlie old fair grounds, presents an imposing sight. The building faces the east. 'A large glass canopy is supported by chains over the front antrance. A semi-circular driveway enters from Mercer Avenue and continues past tlie entrance. The grounds surrounding tlie hospital are being graded and when completed by tlie landscape gardener will be very beautiful. Tlie enterior of the hospital is unusually attractive and well equipped. The furniture in the looms is beautiful ,and uniform throughout. Tlie sun rooms on the south side of the building. furnished with comfortable wicker chairs and seats and containing beautiful flowers, presents a very inviting appearance. In the basement are the furnaces, laundry and store room. The main operating room 'is located on Hie second floor. It is tociny and is lighted by a large sky j light. The nursery is located on the second floor, also. An .electric elevator operates from the basement to Uhe oof where splendid views of the' surrounding country can be obtained.’ Thirty-three of the rooms have been furnished through cash donations by Decatur people and organization i and former residents oD this city. Their, donations total $6,900. At a meeting of the hospital tru»-' toes held yesterday morning it was decided to postpone the allotting of rooms to those who donated furnishings until a later date. o _— Hi the Lowest Depts., A benedict never realizes how complete is his fall until lie Is sent to match a piece of silk.—San Francisco Chronicle, I

Hiring a New Office Bey THE ideal business organization is one where, when a member of the Board of Directors leaves, there is a general advance all along the line; a new office boy is hired and the machine is complete m every detail. It is toward such an ideal that. the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is striving. In the selection of employes great care is taken to get young men who may be developed for positions of responsibility and trust. The results of this policv are to be seen by taking a careful check of the higher officers of this Company. Every one of these men has come up through, the ranks, many from the lowliest beginning. They have won preferment by unusual fitness, by sheer ability and mastery of the particular work entrusted to their care. It is this spirit of pure democracy which has made the organization of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) what it is today—a big, loyal, hard-working group of men and women,bound together by mutual consideration, respect and ambition. The men in the ranks of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) have constantly befpre them the examples of those now directing the Company’s activities. They know that ' there is an open road ahead, and that for the men who show unusual aptitude in any department of the business; unusual ability to vision the future, or to direct the immediate, there are no limitations placed upon advancement. Such men taken from the ranks, will be the directing heads a few years hence. This spirit, permeating every employe from the top to the bottom, keys the entire organization to a pitch of efficiency which enables the Company to render, a superior service io 30 million people of the middle west.
