An Appeal Because . . .. ROSE DAY CAMPAIGN For over a decade St. Mary‘s H‘m in Kitchener has been taking care of sick, needy and people of this district. No one has been turned away . . . over twenty thousand of our ;li:‘i;er‘;s have been trutej at this institution since it was established. Neither race nor creed bar the doors of this humanitarian institution. For instance, during the past three years, 8i29l Nonâ€"Catholics and 2,745 Catholics have been patients. It is the ambition of St. Mary‘s Hospital to furnish the very best possible care to everyone, irrespective of who they are or whence they come. St. Mary‘s Hospital is working under a tremendous financial handicap occasioned by its lng building debt. It is an exâ€" pensive matter to properly equip a ho?ihl.

The interest of this large amount, together with the cost of running St. Mary‘s Hospital, just about eats up the ordinary revenue . . . leaving little for the replacement or wornâ€"out equipment or adding the new modern devices that are being developed constantly. In other words, their ordinary revenue pays operating expenses and interest, but does not cover depreciation. Here is a simple financial statement of the Hospital‘s affairs for the last year: Cost of running the hospital..........................$ 66,612.00 Interest paid on the mortgage........................ 13,206.00 Depreciationâ€"equipment worn out or parâ€" tially worn out, including repairs, etc., on tl:u‘: lzuilding, for which money must be If St. Mary‘s Hospital is going to continue to function in the splendjdkmnnner which it has, it is absolutely essential that Wt en sn eg td i T 17 T their debt be reduced, so as to -;a;eâ€","a.;:;g WJ% the interest payments on the mortgage.
