Construction of the new Prince County Hospital will commence immediately with workmen expect- ed to be on the job by Monday. it was reliably learned last evening. M. F. Schurman Co. Ltd. will be the contractors for the building which is being hullt on a site on Summer Street North which was donated to the Hospital board three years ago by this company.

Thus will be resumed work on this much needed building which started two years ago this spring. At that time the contracting com- pany was Foundation Maritime Ltd. of Halifax snd Montreal and the work was abruptly discontinued after only the excavation had been done.

It was later explained by a spokesman for the Hospital Board that it had been found that if the building was proceeded with ac- cording to the plans provided by the architect it would be beyond the capacity of the board to fin- ance. Since that time the plans have been revised by the architect. at no additional cost. to provide for a smaller ‘building leaving out cer- tain facilities which the board con- sldered were not necessary.

It is estimated that the present plans provide for a building cost- ing between six and seven hundred thousand dollars.

This amount must be equalled by the Provincialfiovernment and the Prince County Hospital will benefit by these grants. WhlClI would not have been the case if
