g HOSPITAL SHOWS PROGRESI
Report Shows Debts Greatly Reduoec
Baptists Proud of Fine institution
d Iat Columbia.
te Columbia.-The third annual repor
d of the Baptist hospital, recently filet
1g by Andrew J. Bethea, lieutenant gov
kd ernor, who is president of the board o
' trustees, pays high tribute to the
e present superintendent, Louis J. Brie
tow, as well as to the surgeons anc
physicians, and, in addition, show
that progressive strides have been
made in the past year. "At the time
Louis J. Bristow assumed charge of
the hospital 16 months ago," the re
port says, "there was an accumulated
debt of over $16,000, and at the close
of the fiscal year the debt is only
slightly over $2,000.
Many improvements have been
made In the hospital during the year
and the report enumerates the follow
ing: Entire building painted, a mod
ern and extensive X-Ray machine pur
chased; heating plant renovated; new
t dumb waiter installed in south build.
ing; a cystoscopic room fitted out; a
new telephone system installed and
f many beds added.
t The extrenely low death rate was
pointed out in strong terms by the re
port, which said that out of 1,597 per
sons admitted for treatment, which is
an increase of 349 over last year, only
32. or about 2 per cent, died. The
total volume of business tranacted by
the hospital for the year was over
$63,000, of which amount about $54.000
was "paid" work and about $7,000 free.
"The Baptist hospital is 'Baptist'
in name only," the report said. "It
is Baptist in management only, and
not denominational in benefits and
blessings for the persons admitted for
treatment represented 12 denomina.
tions and this does not include those
represented by the some 200 or 300
patients who did not indciate their re
ligious affiliations. Less than one
third of the 1.500 patients were of the
Baptist church."
The report says that the Baptist
hospital has been placed on the regu.
lar benevolence schedule of nearly all
; the Baptist associations in the state
r and that the 1.100 Baptist churche.: in
the state are now contributing regular
ly to the support of the institution.
There are now 30 nurses in the train.
