Emergency Light
Ordered By Guild
In accordance with its aim to
do everything possible to prepare
for war time emergencies, the
Guild of Griffin Memorial Hos
pit 1 this week authorized the
purchase of a battery - operated
hand lamp for the hospital. This
lamp will provide adequate light
for emergency operations in case
electric power fails, or has to be
turned off. The lamp which
projects a 2500 ft. ray, has two
light bulbs, the larger of which
will burn for 10 hours. A charger
accompanies the lamp so that it
may be recharged over night.
The usefulness of such a lamp
will not be denied by those who
recall that on the night of an
evacuation blackout last Dec
ember a serious operation had to
be performed at the hospital by
flashlight alone. The proceeds of
the recent plant sale sponsored
by the Guild have been assigned
to pay for the new lamp, which
is being ordered immediately.
