A-6 â€" THE LIBERAL, Wednesday, October 26, 1977 ll From Your Hospital By LOIS JEMPSON The staff of York Central Hospital keenly support the hospital through a lottery program and have recently provided $3,000 for the purchase of a colonodoscope. This is just one of many donations to the Foundation by this dedicated staff group. Also, the Foundation would like to remind everyone to keep your pledges coming and would be pleased to discuss the needs of your hospital with you at 883-2032. Thank you for your past support. HAPPENINGS This summer, have you noticed the people busily tending the flowerbed in front of the hospital? They are members of the Richmond Hill Horticulatural Society and they planted the lovely rosebed. They also maintain a large bed of petunias outside the cafeteria. A special thank you is extended to these people who have provided the patients, visitors and staff with so much beauty. For a short while one recent afternoon, the Patient Reception area was very busy. Executive Directors from several Ontario hospitals were viewing the Com- puter system when the Grade 1 classes from Eva L. Dennis Public School in King and Joseph A. Gibson Public School in Maple arrived to visit the hospital. The hospital instituted these Grade 1 tours two years ago to help minimize the fear that children often feel towards a hospital, especially in an emergency situation. CONVENTIONS .

On-board fun and port visits make it a truly complete combination of rest, relaxation, and enjoy ment. We’re asked many different questions about Cruises, espe- cially by people going on one for the first time. One that comes up often concerns personal funds on board ship. Practically all cruise lines strongly recommend the use of travelers checks in small denominations. Most of them will not accept or cash person- al checks on board. Many will accept Creâ€" dit cards for shipboard purchases. Three other quesâ€" tions that often come up concern electricity, Somebody smashed a west side window hidden behind a tractor trailer.
