"I iini deeply grateful to my as- sociated fellow committeemen," said Mr. James Paton in his open- ing speech as chairman. "in giving me the honor of presiding at this important and interesting ceremony of laying the corner stone of our new hospital. No better day could have been chosen than this, Can- ada's National Thanksgiving.

The speaker than referred in high terms to the excellence of the med- ical and nursing staff of the Prince Edward Island Hospital. The one thing that had been lacking .had been the l dequacy of the build- ing. “Todayfl he added. “your trustee board is making progress in that line and when this building. the corner stone of which will be laid in a few minutes, is completed, I am sure that everyone in Prince Edward Island will rejoice in the fact that we shall have a splendid modern hospital, up-to-date in ev- ery way, of which every citizen may well be proud .' because it will serve the Island from one end to the

stone of a hospital which will be on a par with the most up-to-date hospitals of this continent. This location is ideal and I am sure the building when complete will be the very best.

"I am glad to have this oppor- tunlty of congratulating you, Mr. President, and those associated with you on the extensive building which you have under construc- tion.

MES SAGE FROM PREMIER

Dr. the Hon. W. J. P. MacMillan, Minister of Health and Education. read the following‘ letter from Premier Stewart: “Mr. Chairman: "In embracing this opportunity of congratulating you and your us- soclafted trustees of the Prince Ed- ward Island Hospital, upon reach- ing this mile stone in the history of your institution, may I express my great. disappointment that I am deprived of the privilege of being present and personally taking part in this function. "The advancement of civiliza- tion and refinement can best be measured by the progress made by the community in the care and amelioration of the sick and unfor- tunate. "If that proposition be accepted,‘ then our advancement in this community must be measured by the history of our hospitals, and the credit for this advancement belongs to citizens who have given their time and means to that end, and among whom are the members of your Board and their predeces- sors. "The Prince Edward Island Hos- pital has for many years been a household name throughout the length and breadth of the Province, but lately our Provincial require- ments have grown beyond it, and your Board conceived the erection 0i this new institution. I cannot imagine any greater evidence of the courage, determination, and public service of the members of your board, than the undertaking and carrying forward, thus far. this structure, especially under condi- tlons such as have existed during recent times. "How all these eeleemosynary in- stitutions have been maintained, so successfully, up to the present, no one knows, except those whoi have wider-taken to find the funds. “If I may personally be permit- ted to express an opinion, I believe

“This Province, we sreglad to sav, is fortunate in ‘raving its hos- pital needs fairly well supplied. The old Prince Edward Island Hospital ‘has served this community for about fifty years, and now to have this new building to carry on will be encouragement for the medical and nursing professions to per- severe in their good work in reliev- ing the physical ills of mankind.”

other.‘

"With all the demands of service in a. modern hospital today," Dr.

MacMlllsn continued, "there is one which we, must not forget. That is that it costs money. I am afraid that at the present time there are too many who think our public hoe- pltals can run on nothing. The amount of charitable work which is now required in our three hospitals means that unless they get assist- ance to pay off their overdrafts and deficits they must go out of business. That is what we want the people to remember. I sincerely trust that the wish expressed in the closing lines of theletterfrom the Premier will soon be realized, name- ly, that out of state funds-that is. out of the funds of this Province-

"Fifty years after the first Prince Edward Island Hospital opened its doors for the reception of patients this most necessary, most import- ant. and highly equipped Institu- tion vrlll be open and ready for all who may need its services. “This is neither the time nor the place to stress the great advances that have been made in medical science during that period. nor is it the time to eulogize in any way the good work that has been done by the Medical Staff. \ "All that can be done. will be done, to alleviate human suffering. in this new, modern, up to the min- ute Hospital.

"Many very useful, and fax reaching efforts have had this Province as their place of origin,

and the whole Dominion has felt their influence.

“Now an important work of a purely voluntary character has been started, and will go on to be a hav- en of health and comfort to our own people.

"On behalf of the Medical Profes- sion of the Province in general, (as one of the oldest practitioners), and the Medical Staff of the Prince Ed- ward Island Hospital, in particular, congratulations are extended to the ‘Trustees, the Building Committee, the Ladies Aid, the Subscribers and all interested in this work; with our best wishes, and our hopes. that great and lasting ben- efits will result from this splendid culmination of their efforts."

there should be set aside sufficient to maintain the hospitals, or at least to give them, ns they do in other Provinces, an adequate per caplta. amount to pay the living ex- penses of those who come iri as ward patients. That should be the minimum; in many provinces the assistance given is far greater than that." ‘ i The present grants, the speaker explained, amount to only $2.000 each. He hoped that-all present at this ceremony would live to see the day when the hospitals will be given that share of public funds which will enable them to carry on their beneficent work to a greater degree than ‘they have in the past.

MR- w- M- LEA, Reviews Development Mr. W, M. Lea, leader of the Provincial Liberal party. expressed his great pleasure at being present on this important occasion. He was heartily in accord with the refer- enccs that. had been made to the need of more state assistance to- wards hospital operation.
