There is no mortgage on tbe property. The Hospital is essentially an emerg ency hospital and la ready at all times of day and night to respond to tbe call of sickness or accident. While the hospital has acme private rooms, 76 to 80 per cent of its patients are treated in the wards. During the pest three years 2621 patients have been cared for at an average daily cost of $8.08 each. The average time a Real Estate and) Insurance j patient has remained in thq. Hospital during that period bps been fifteen days, and there have been two and one half times more eurgical than medical cases. Its chief aim is to care for those who otherwise could not get prompt and skillful medical or surgical treatment and care, under the best conditions to aid quick recovery. Never since Nassau Hospital began to care for tbe sick and suffering has such good work been done in all de partments as during the past two years. The personnel of assistants, nurses and servants has been greatly improved, and there has been installed into all a spirit of devotion and layaliy equal amoout to pet the institution a sound basis for a long time to BELLMORL, L.

Second —To provide foods for necea- aary improvements and enlargements aa follows: Isolation Pavilion for typhoid pa tients. In this building provision would also be made to isolate any cave of contagious disease until It too could be cared for elsewhere. Maternity Ward of seven beds. Tbe need for such a ward ia self-evident We now have many euch patients and it la moat Inconvenient and improper to care for them in tbe women's ward. Children's Ward is greatly needed as it ia not proper to have children in the women's ward where thev now have to b« placed. Addition to Naraee' Home. A t times it baa bead necessary to board nurses outside tbe hospital for lack of room. Seven more private rooms to rent at a moderate price. « Additional protection against fire. Repairs and additions to plumbing and heating. Repairs to and painting outside of buildings. New automobile ambulance and re pairs 4o old one, and alteration to gar age. Electric Light Plant. , Estimated coat of above improve ments and additions, $89,000. Third—To pay off floating debt of $84,000. It baa therefore been decided to make ■ vigorous Twelve Day Campaign to raise $100,000 or more, beginning December 6 and ending December 19. Hundreds of busy men and women have volunteered their services for this work, and their success should be as sured. Last Spring the Flushing Hospital raised by this method over $100,000; during the last month the S. R. Smith Infirmary of Staten Island started to raise $100,000 and in twelve days got $141,700. Jamaica Hospital has just closed its campaign for $60,000 and has obtained pledges for $67,000. Hundreds of such campaigns in various parts of the country have been carried to success, and there is every reason to expect that Nassau County, with over 80,000 population, will not fail. The Campaign Committ e appeals with confidence to the people of Nas- Lynbrook \ Village President Augustus D. Kel sey, Poetmaater And Mrs. Sylvester Pearsall, and Mies Edna Pearsall, wbe have been spending tbe past few weeks in North Carolina, on e gunning trip, returned to Lynrbook on Friday last, well pleased with their outing. They report that the weather in North Caro lina waa extremely warm. Plenty of game and a fine time in general. A pleasant meeting of the Men's Club waa held at tbe rectory on Tues day night when tbe newly elected offi cers were installed in their respective offices. Following tbs business meet ing, a few pleasant social tours were enjoyed by all present. Mrs. Emma L. Caldwell has left for the Catskills where ahe >*111 spend aeveral weeks visiting friends, follow ing which ahe will leave for Californ ia, where ahe. intends taking up her residence. at a proceeding election, using that tbe residents of Atlantic avenue from the railroad tracks to. tbe Merrick Road baa been in a miserable and filthy condition for the past week and it ia about time that something waa done lo keep that im portant thorooghfare in a better con dition There is no reason why such a condition should exist, and there ia no doubt but what if the proper method was pursued tbe condition could be readily improved. An overheated etose in the Vienna Restaurant on Monday morning caused | ne*ded, and if success should attain were eapt thereby prosing that tbe Lynbrook, aa in all other incorporated villages, do not favor tbe calling of a special election, which means quite an expense to tbe community, it basing been stated that tbe approximate cost of each ballot that waa cast on Satur day last, cost tbe taxpayers of this vil lage about twenty-fife centr each. Aa bad been anticipated, every propoeition submitted waa defeated by a large ma jority, the vote thereon being as fol io wa: Proposition No. 1, Yea, 49; No, 182. Prop. No. 2, Yes, 44, No. 181. Prop.

The Clock Committee of tbe Civic Association reporta mneb progress to ward a successful conclusion of their efforts to raise sufficient money fur a Town Clock, and up to time of going to preaa tbe Committee have collected about $200. Of course some of our. citizens hav^objection to the clock go ing at the station property, others ob ject to the Five Peinta on Merrick Read, but the Committee intends to get the sentiment of tbe subscribers when the Hat is complete, and have the clock placed to suit the majority. One of the Committee told our reporter that if each citizen would give what be could afford, to swell tbe Hat. it would not be necessary for any one to dig very deep. The reeponee is so generous however, that they are bope- fnl to raise much more money than Rockville Centre A pleasant time was enjoyed at tbe meeting of Charter Oak Council, No. 141f, Royal Arcanum, which waa held on Thursday night last. Supersiaiuj District Deputy Albln Johnson, Freeport, accompanied by bia auite, visited the local council.

Verbally and by let-1 great public work, ter tbe highest praise has been received from some of the best known New j York physicians and surgeons, who are frequently at the hospital, j Th£ Hospital cannot be successfully run on the small fees that it charges for ward patients, therefore it is ne cessary to ask aid from the people of Nassau County in order to continue its high standard of work. During the past two months there has been received for tbe endowment fund, a bequest of $100,000 from the estrte of Mrs. Benjamin D. Hicks and $26,000 from the estate of Walter B. Duryea, also $6,000 from Mrs. Edward Willets for an endowed bed in memory of her husband. The interest from all of the above will about make up for half the annual deficit, which has av eraged for the past three years slight ly over $11,000 per year. Should not these gifts stimulate the people of Nassau County to contribute at least a small fire and was responsible for tbe calling out of the fire department. The fire was extinguished in abort order and before any considerable dam age had been done, but there ia no doubt but what if the fire had broken out in the early morning or late night hours, it might have caused quite a conflagration. The damage it has been said, will not exceed twenty-five dol lars. At the annual meeting of the Fri day Club, the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Presi dent, Mrs. I eter A. Blake; First Vice President, Mrs. Robert Davison; Sec ond Vice President, Mrs. JeremTah Wood; Secretary, Mrs. Giles P. Phil lips; Treasurer, Mrs. Millard F. Cob6.
