HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1926 THE HOSPITAL 'Mi» facilities which are available at the present time are woefully inade quate, they are unsafe, and cannot pos sibly employ the most modern methods of relieving the sick—not because of any lack of |H*rsonnel. but rather for a lack of a decent building in which to operate. The present hospital was financed largely through ¡Mipulsr subscription, and it is the opiuion of several of our leading business and profeslonal men that the lime is ripe for the launching of a campaign for a new plant. The decision as to whether or not this statement is true, rests in tlie hands of the people of this county. Several of the more active of the fraternal and civic organisations have appointed committees to work on this project. The Elks have recently ap pointed a committee; the American legion has had one for some time; and the prej<-ct has lieen placed in the pro gram of work of the ChamlM-r of Com merce. There are also several other organizations working along this line. Will it lie possible to coordinate the effort« of these various organizations into one strong endeavor? if such ac tion is possible, and can be done in the near future, the early erection of a new Community Hospital Is assured. If the tins* is ripe, Die effort will lie made.

If so, don't do it! This may seem strange advice from the magazine which lias fought from day of its foundation for organized business, which lias stood for the right of industry to get together for a eoni- mon good. But a (’hamlier of Commerce ought not to is* thought of as asking “sup port” but rather as offering "for value received” services which can lie had in no other way. The man who pays his taxes isn't supporting his town. He's )>aying for protection from fire, for street paving, for m I kmi I r , for the dozens of other things a well-organ I zed community provides.

DISPLAY WINDOW IN WIDE DEMAND Hinee the policy of permitting mein- bers of the chamtier to use the large display window in the chamlier quar ters to display their products, there has been but one week during which the window lias not lieeii in use.

RED CROSS DRIVE NEARING COMPLETION HE Maytag Tub is “machinery free”—all washing space—holds four gallons more than ordinary tubs. Made of cast aluminum, it keeps the water hot for an entire washing. It will not rust, split, shrink, swell nor corrode. It empties and cleans itself in 30 seconds after the washing is done. T Because of the scientific shape of this Cast-Aluminum Tub, and the marvelous Gyrafoam principle, the Maytag washes twice as fast as or dinary washers, and washes cleaner —a big tubful in 3 to 7 minutes. Grimy work-clothes, and greasy overalls are yzashed perfectly clean in 10 minutes without hand-rub bing, yet the daintiest garments are washed with hand carefulness.
