General Hospital Reports Being in Good Financial Condition but New Building Will Be Needed Soon Two outstanding facts were brought to light aa a result of the anrraal general mooting of the Prince Rupert General Hospital Asso ciation held last night in the City Hall, with the chairman of the board, J. H. Thompson presiding. These are the need of a new building in the very near future arid that the association is now out of debt with all the buildings and apparatus paid for and with a small nucleus toward a building fund. The result has been brought about through the careful management of the institution, as mentioned in the reports given last night and also through something which as not particularly meiitloned. the ' generous grants made by the provincial overnment and by the city. Without these ot course the boefrilal could not , function. i - There wa a nood attend do ineJud- ing several lad tec those present being Are. and Mrs F. W. Price, O. C MoBae. ! I. Unwln.
