Children's Home Society
Plans Hospital, Nursery
In their efforts to build a hospital and nursery for children of the poor in this state, the Montana Children's Home Society is making a drive to raise $50,000 for the necessary buildings, asking people of the state to purchase bricks at one dollar apiece for the construction of the buildings.
Plans for the hospital and nursery call for room for 30 beds for sick children, three sunny wards, one isolation ward and one operating room. It is the plan to care for children of the poor absolutely free of charge while the parents who are able to pay will be asked to contribute toward the cost of the care their children received. Those who have means will be urged to support the children's hospital by patronizing it, also.
The cause is a worthy one and offers a means for worthwhile Thanksgiving and Christmas donations.
