more days' treatment were given during the past year, the- total dayi of treatment, 35,103, exceeding every previous year, and more babies were born in the Hospital the past 12 months than any other year--348, an increase of 12 over last year. The greatest Increase In patients has been In the out-patient department, where the number of treatments, 10,756, has doubled since 1929. The pre-natal clinic, started two years ago, "continues to be a blessing to prospective mothers who are unable to pay for needed prenatal care," adds Superintendent Dunham.

There wero 43-1 bed patients treated for the city during the year, for whom the city paid. The total bills amount to 52,761.25 less than the appropriation of $35,000. and it is the first time In years that the Hospital has not cared for more- city patients than the budget could pay for.

Sullivan, and also Dr. Henry Martin, "the close friend and dearest friend since youth." Mr. Quljin Lieutenant Governor Quinn said the selection of Judge Sullivan was a fine one, but there is a note of sadness because Newport and the Democratic party suffer an Irreparable loss. He said to be the mayor of Newport is a national distinction, and "Mort" Sullivan was the best Newport ever had. There are many distinguished candidates, but none can take the place of 'Mort," who has a great heart, a keen mind and an honest soul, and it Is a distinction for the Rhode Island bar to number him on the judiciary.

llr. Greene expressed thanks to Phelan, the florist, ar.d the hotel, nnd the arrangements committee. Mr. Walsh Dean Walsh said the club looked upon Judge Sullivan as "Mort," who has kept his feet on the ground and his heart beating with the common people.

Our greatest effort during the past year," tha superintendent reported, "has been put forth In the hope that we might combat the spirit of getting used to things.

With other private philanthropic activities, we have tried to keep alive in the hearts and minds of those who come to us feelings of independence, self- reliance and self-respect. Whenever and wherever we could we have decried and discouraged federal relief, because we share with many others the feeling that, while relief has solved many desperate problems for men and women, it has also created a new set of problems which are of a very serious nature." "The body must be fed, tut the soul must not be killed in the doing of it.
