WOVEN RNSE - SOOOOFORFREE ONO clinic and the Ladies Are Pleased. A BIG PRESCRIPTION.) Great Boon for Poor, Sick Persons on the West Side of the City. For last night the hundred devoted ‘women who make up the Auzil! Board, together with some ni hi red husbands, friends, re! and the doors for the Board's annual thea- trical benefit. And since the feminine| — promoters of the affair, blandly imper- vious to the high cost of living, bought up the entire house and resold it at al- most double prices, quite one-quarter of the sum necessary for the permanent establishment of the bed has been ool- leeted, ‘The Polyclinic Hospital, most people know, just moved into @ fine new sorts of cases, and it has to take care of all the west side ambulance calls ‘are thousands of peopte in that part of ‘the city in every serious need of med- foal treatment end yet unable te pay hospital bills, DOCTORS PRESCRIBED ONE FREE BED. Therefore the doctors told the Wom- en's Auxiliary Board that at least one bed must be established immedi- ately. The Board is made up of a emall group of women whe take @ fine and earnest delight in personal philanthrop- le service, Their president is Mre. Charles Gilmore Kertey, whose husband is a well-known specialist im the dis- eases of children, and most, though not all, of the board members are the wives of the Polyclinio physicians and eur- weons. “To maintain © permanent free bed, including 386 days of the dest medical treatment and nureing, requires $00 a g can be made, however, with a ich, of course, pays for the bed and what goes with It, Our board has already put its bed im operation, and the second patient, @ woman, wes re ceived last Satuniay. “The $2,000 which we gained last night makes a fine nest egg for the $8,000 fund which we must finally establish in order to insure the annual income of #00. We shall have at least one card party later im the season, ‘We hope to collect ‘@8 much as $5,000 in al! this year, j Pitter ial and J heard one of the doc! he'd love to attach them to the hose pital surgical corps—to give the anaes thetics, don't you know! Besides show- ing the people to thelr seats, thers ! young woimen tripped down the centre aisle, two abreast, to offer Miss Bille Burke eight large baskets of American } Beauty roses and yellow chrysanthe- } mums, The flowers were tled with } orange ribbon, the color of the Poly- f clinic Hospital. } } ‘Miss Burke, too, has been most gen- @rcus to us. And all those whom we have personally approached, even our tradespeople, have done what they could. ‘The first person I saw when I entered the theatre to-night was my grocer We had all the boxes sold, at 660 weveral weeks before the perfo: ‘The box-holders were Mra, And ingon, Mis, Daniel Loring, dlauson, Mr® Thomas Hsbit nold Sturnbors, Robert Wyt!” an A w. myself, thing which knows ork, wisi! haa the part of us who are more fortunate to help the others out. WORKED IN HARMONY WITH quite the biggest job we have yet tackled. We've been in existence four years, and during that time we've worked in perfect harmony with the hospital physicians, applying our help where it Beemed to be mom needed. We Spent $4,800 for equipping the kitchen tn the new hospital building, And we have “ man gifts for the patients, as these things were required. It Is for the New York Poly-|insurea the permanent. maintenance of our first free bed, and ft Is in order that we may do this as quickly a® pos- ‘ aible that we ask for help from all who believe in such work, very much needed! And as soon as we have it established for all time—why, ‘we can begin to work for another.” Arlington, No, 273 West Thirty-eighth street, early to-day.
