i THEY SEE NEED URGENT ~ Oshawa Clergymen Appeal ~ For Hospital Fund Support : : ; 4 } By REV. L. D. BEGG President, Oshawa Ministerial Association It is with pleasure that I heartily endorse the financial capa which is being advanced at the present time in the hope that ade- hospital facilities may be Provided in Oshawa for us all. It a matter of joy and encourage- ment to see that our leading citi- zens are concerned about this mat- ter, and are willingly giving of their and energy to promote it. In financing a home we all kra+ that there are two major divisions for our expenditures. .uere o.. _.o- cessities and there are luxuries. Wi that we must procure the ne- cessities, and of course the luxur- jes are very nice. The hospital is a grave necessity and so should be considered imperative in our provisions. Of course it isn't a ne- cessity when you are not sick; and ps you haven't been in the hosp! to discover for yourself how Brave is the situation. Perhaps you not realize that sick folk ave often in the halls because there are no rooms for them, and that many who need operations are wi for months because the hospital facilities are now so heav- patients are very quick to espress their appreciation of the they have received and all eonsiderations shown, but they are also concerned, as we are, the lack of space. Oshawa is + about a growing city, and is find- gh of her facilities are a te, and of these at the JEvaem time Jerhaps the most sore- affected our hospital. It is imperative that we enlarge the for it is a matter of life death. I therefore commend this urgent necessity to your thougt- ful generosity. By RABBI M. NORDEN Oshawa Hebrew Congregation The slogan adopted for the Osh- awa Hospital Campaign 'Open your ro your share" is very pointed and meaningful. : It does not make mention of the dire need for funds, because it can safely and justly be assumed that the question of presssing need for a new hospital wing is undisputed. Citizens of a fast growing commun- ity such as Oshawa will not ques- tion the expediency and urgency of the project. Yet at the same time we are reminded that apathetic agree- ment with the new hospital plan alone can not be accepted as a gesture of true citizenship. To the mere acceptance and cold approv- al of the scheme must be added the warmth of our hearts. Sympa- thetic feeling must be translated into practical action and into a wholehearted sharing of the com- munal burden. . We are also reminded that to merely have "some'" share in this worthy project can hardly be suf- ficient to raise the $1,000,000 re- quired to execute this scheme. We have to contribute 'our' share, meaning an adequate part which is in keeping with our financial circumstances, befitting our posi- tion in the community, and also one that will set our conscience at rest. If sickness could be averted and lasting health be gained by mone- means, no prize would be too high to anyone of us. It is trye that the process of nature can not be influenced by banknotes; yet there is open to all of us an opportunity of being benefactors and participat- ing in a laudable Jroject to ease the lot of the sick and provide for them the necessary commodities, facilit- es and forts.

Let us then consider our partici- pation in the hospital project not IEV. CANON D. M.

Eventually, and this is the stage the Oshawa General Hospital has now reached, all the rooms are crowded. All available hall space is often in use. ,So what? Is some part of the ulation of Oshawa and district be left without hospital facilities? When you need are you to be met with "Sorry, impossible, full up'? That seems perhaps an unlikely situation. - We have always been able to go to hospital when neces- sary. But just as a quart will not go into a pint bottle, so hospital needs of 50,000 people cannot be provided for by an institution de- signed to serve half that number. Few of all the people in Oshawa who have been hospitalized here have contributed anything to the initial cost of the efficient, well able that each one of us will spend a longer or shorter time in a hos- pital bed. We may have gone along for 40 to 60 years without hos- pitalization. But there comes a day when sudden illness strikes or some old condition of ill health becomes acute; home nursing is impossible or inadequate and the doctor says, 'You must go to hos- pital." But what if all the rooms are, occupied? Often a bed can be plac- as mere duty, but rather as a special privilege accorded to us. To be called upon to perform charity for the benefit of our fel- low-citizens and coming genera- tions is the noblest prerogative of our days. ducted institution which se: them. Now 'enlargement of the hospital has become imperative and $1,000- 000 of the cost is sought from who will use it, namely the citizens of Oshawa and district. Certainly the amount is considerable. But Oshawa's resources of money and of goodwill are more than consider- able. The amount will be sub- scribed quickly and gladly if each remembers shat some day he and other members of his family will be in quite desperate need of hos- pital accommodation, -- if each uts the principle of the Golden Rule to work, and supplies accord- ing to his means some help towards providing hospital beds for all who shall need them.
