GOOD RECORD FOR MARCH

RECEIPTS OF HOSPITAL EXCEED THE EXPENDITURES. The trustees of the Jasper county hospital meet in regular monthly session at the office' of the superintendent Thursday evening. Bills for the month were examined and allowed. The .report of superintendent Hemphill showing receipts amounting to $1043.70 and expenditures $1031.08, leaving a net balance of $12.62 was examined and found corThe total receipts since January 1, 1919, were $3038.54, the total expenditures, $3082.68. This leaves a deficit of but $44.14 for the three months. This institution is rendering to this community a service the value of which cannot be overstated. The management under Superintendent Hemphill and her able corps of nurses is very highly commended by all who know of the splendid work they are doing. The present building is inadequate and many persons needing the care of the hospital cannot be accomodate ed on account of the lack of rooms. This is a matter that should appeal to the people of the county and steps to provide additional rooms should be taken.
