was given surgery and treat
ment.
The hospital has in the past
•conducted the drive in Washing
ton, Seattle, and Alaska but un
til this year Kodiak has not par
ticipated. The local drive is be
ing conducted by Mrs Marian
Blinn, chairman and every cent
■collected goes directly to the
hospital.
Bottles for coin contributions
are being placed in bars and
stores and all you have to do to
help is drop your change in one
of them—do it every lime you
can during the two weeks the
drive will be on.
A few dimes or quarters or
whatever you can give seem
little enough when you consider
even just one case, as of the fol
lowing from Kodiak. We quote
from a hospital report:
“This 2-year-oid child had a
rapidly growing tumor on one
cheek. The doctors in Kodiak
felt that treatment was indicated
but that local facilities were not
adequate and advised that she
be taken to Seattle, which she
was. A plastic surgeon saw her
at the hospital and operated as
soon as the child could be made
ready for surgery. The tumor
was removed in one operation.
The little girl made a rapid re
covery and spent some time in a
footer home until arrangements
could be made for her return to
Alaska, the was a very pretty
little girl, happy and friendly
and a great favorite in the hos-1
pita! nursery. The child spent
only 38 days in the hospital.” |
Multiply this typical case by
the many others and you will
see why it is important that you
'give to help the Children’s Or
thopedic hospital.

people crowded in the aisles at
