I orlal plaques, with the suggestion
that the name of any person or fam
ily might be commemorated By do
nating a unit that could range from
$500 to $5000. The following words
were printed in one of the several
ads to show the work of the advanc
ed gift campaign. "Your hospital
a Living Memorial ". In honor and
appreciatioh for those who served
and those who sacrificed in world
war II. Preserving life and health
should be the first concern of a
Christian community”. Thus the
thought of a hospital as a living
memorial was promoted through the
work of the advanced gift workers.
Hospital Sunday was observed on
November 23, prior to the opening
of the campaign for advanced gifts.
The actual campaign began with a
dinner served at The Doll House
November 21, with Arvil Child and
Frank Morgan as group leaders.
The work of these two groups con
tinued from November 21 until the
last of December, meeting each noon
for lunchenons.
While the advanced gifts drive
was underway, Bernard Frost, chair
man for the general drive, was mak
ing organization plans.
On Friday night. December 28,
125 members of the hospital district
met at the Masonic hall for the din-

As the general campaign pro
gressed, it became evident that it
was possible to raise additional funds
for a polio ward. Local doctors
and those from neighboring towns,
individuals and organizations added
pressure to the campaign for a polio
ward.
The loyalty and enthusiasm of the
solicitors were evidenced as the
workers called on friends and neigh
bors for contributions, and attended
the noon luncheons. The attend-
ence during the first eight days of
