This small device has no dangling cords or separate transmitting units and is worn completely in your ear. It was developed especially for those persons who can hear but can’t understand. This new hearing instrument provides “ear-level’’ hearing with the wearer picking up speech, sounds, television and radio at his ear. Due to the use of transistors, the user coat is extremely low. A true life actual size replica of one of the smallest all-in-the-ear hearing aid ever made will be given absolutely free to anyone sending in this advertisement while supply lasts.

Dialysis center at Lutheran Hospital

The new Fort Wayne Lutheran Hospital Dialysis Center opened Monday, July 20, to serve those with chronic kidney failure. Located two blocks south of the Lutheran Hospital at 3320 Fairfield Avenue, the center is on the site of the former Fairfield Post Office. It will offer expanded hemodialysis services, the finest care and equipment in northeastern Indiana and northwestern Ohio. The spacious new center will replace the out-patient renal unit located in the hospital. It will provide dialysis treatments, removing excels fluid waste products from the blood of those whose kidneys can no longer function, in a modern, brightly decorated building. The^facility has approximately 3.500 more square feet than the old unit, an increase of dialysis stations from 10 to 20 and the addition of 12 new distal computerized dialysis machines. The increase of stations will allow the center to provide more convenient hours during the six days per week dialysis is offered, deleting late evening hours. It will also provide services to travelers needing dialysis. Currently, over 50 people maintain their health by visiting Lutheran Hospital approximately three times per Kleinrichert booked Charles Blaise Kleinrichert. 18, r 2 Syracuse, was booked in the Kosciusko County Jail and charged in county court with theft.

week, four hours per day. for dialysis treatments. The off-site location of the new center will allow them to receive treatments in an area designed to promote a feeiing of psychological wellbeing, separate from the hospital environment. The center is close enough, however, to the hospital for the convenience of emergency, transportation and supply services. The center, with a staff of nearly 30, will be independent except for laboratory, pharmacy and supply services. It will have a telephone system that is connected to the hospital, providing the same access to emergency teams as other in-house departments. Designed by Mox Pohlmeyer and Associates, the renovated and expanded building is large enough to accomodate future growth. The total cost of the center is approximately $900,000. Luthern Hospital will provide $400,000 of the funds, as approved by the Northern Indiana Health Systems Agency. The balance must be provided through contributions. For this purpose, the Lutheran Hospital Foundation is currently conducting a fundraising campaign. Trie center’s interior was designed by Think Tank, mechanical construction was done by Hattersley & Sons, Inc., general construction by Schinnerer & Truemper and electrical construction by McKay Electric Company, Inc.
