IMSfEDLATE CONSTRUCTION OF
815.0OO BUILDING WILL BE
UNDERTAKEN BE LEASED
FOR PRESENT
Work is to start at an early date
on the construction of a new hospital
for Lakevlew, which will cost in the
neighborhood of $l.r.,000. This an
nouncement wa smude today by Rev.
Thomas Brady. Father Brady is here
for a few days, having exchanged
pulpits with Father Marshall, past
or of the Sacred Heart Church. The
project has tho indorsement of the
Commercial Club of that city and is
meeting with tho hearty support of
tho residents of Lake county, who
recognize tho urgont need for such
an institution.
When the project wns first consid
ered it wns Father Brady's intention
to have tho Institution In charge of
Sisters of Charity. This plan, how
ever will have to be abandoned for
the present. During tho Influenza ept
demlc of last winter tho heroic sac
rifices made by these noble women
throughout tho nation depleted the
ranks of all of the sisterhoods to a
point where it Is Impossible for tho
present to sparo the sisters needed to
care for new Institutions. Conse
quently Father Brady will operate
the hospital under a lease tempor
arily. 1 The building will be of cut stone
and will be large enough to accomo
date twelve patients to start with.
