Our  Appeal 
1920 

A  fair  start  In  life  should  be 
^f-'itage  of  every  Ontario 
child,  but  many  hundreds,  sick 
and  crippled,  are  doomed  to  eke 
out  drab,  ineffectual  lived,  bur- 
dens to  themselves  and  the  com- 
munity alike. 

Happily  the  Hospital  for  Sick 
Children  exists  to  remove  the 
handicaps  of  disablement  and 
disease  from  stricken  children. 

War  conditions  have  loft  this 
great  institution  heavily  in  debt 
— its  revenue  unequal  to  meet  the 
ever-increasing  demands  made 
upon  its  services  from  all  parts  of 
the  province. 

An  unfailing  income  of  50  cents 
a  minute  is  needed!  Will  you 
not  send  to  the  Secretary  some 
token  of  your  sympathy  for  this 
charity?

FIRST  HOSPT'"  •  T,  ON 
AVENUE  ST.,  rO 

On  December  19tb.  x874,  the  flret 
donation  of  »30  was  received  towards 
the  founding  of  a  Hospital  for  Sick  Chil- 
dren In  Toronto.  One  nurse  and  six 
little  cots  were  established  In  a  rented 
house  at  No.  31  Avenue  street.  The  first 
little  patient  cared  for  was  Mawle.  a^ed 
three  years,  who  was  badly  scalded 
while  her  mother  was  absent  earnlnc 
bread  for  the  family. 

Through  the  life  work  of  the  late 
John  Ross  Robertson,  from  this  humble 
beginning  there  has  been  completed  the 
most  perfectly  equipped  children's  hos- 
pital on  this  continent.  since  1876 
almost  half  a  million  children  have 
been  cared  for  through  this  charity

Here  to-day.  under  method*  nnrar- 
passed,  skilled  doctors  and  nurses  can 
successfully  carry  on  the  healln*  work 
for  sufferlngr  children. 

Here  250  cots  are  always  filled,  and  a 
staff  of  115  nurses  was  required  during 
1919  to  care  for  the  41.763  children 
admitted.       The  total   number  of  in- 
patients Is  made  up  of  4.806  from  To- 
ronto  and  760  from  other  parta  of  the 
province:   cured.   3.297,   improved,  880; 
unimproved,  204;  died.  465.    Total  out-

.The  Out-Patient  Wing 


Through  this  large  extension  the  Hospital 

Is  being  more  closely  linked  in  with  the 
Public  Health  work  in  the  homes  of  the  poor 
of  the  city  and  Province.  Yearly  additions 
to  the  departments  devoted  to  Infants' 
Wards,  Medical  Dispensary,  Dally  Clinics, 
and  Orthopedic  Work,  mean  increueud  ex- 
pendltiaro.  f 

'During  the  past  year  36.607  children  were 
treated  in  the  Out-Patients  Department.  Of 
these,  15,496  were  girls  and  21,201  boys. 
The  largest  number  in  any  one  day  was 
268.  and  the  dally  average  110.  The  charge 
to  the  parent  or  municipality  is  merely 
nominal;  the  difference  must  be  made  up 
through  the  generosity  of  the  public.

To  Maintain  the  Health  of  the 
Children 


VVhen  a  patient  is  on  the  road  to  recovery 
there  must  be  continued  co-operation  be- 
tween the  Hospital  and  the  home. 

Failure  at  either  end  nullifies  the  work 
Of  the  other  and  wastes  the  money  of  both. 


Homes  Should 
Keep  the  children  clean. 
Insist  upon  sufficient  sleep. 
Provide  proper  nourishment 
Clothe  the  children  properly. 
Remember  that  happiness  and  good 
morals  contribute  to  health.

The  Infants'  Department 


IN  A  CUBICLE  WEIGHING  BABY 
In  these  wards  the  baby  receives  a 
right  start."  The  department  is  divided 
into  numerous  glass  partitioned  cubicles 
so  that  the  babies  may  not  be  crowded' 
and  may  receive  the  constant  and  Individual 
attention  so  neceuary  In  their  successful 
management. 

Here  one  may  see  babies  exhibiting  all 
the  various  problems  of  infant  feeding. 

Years  ago  the  majority  of  "difficult 
feeding  cases"  died;  to-day  the  greater 
majority  lives.  The  obstacles  to  the  suc- 
cessful treatment  of  these  babies  In  the 
poorer  homes  are  practically  insurmount- 
able. This  department,  equipped  In  the 
best  way  that  modern  science  and  tender 
nterest  can  devise  In  saving  the  babies, 
is  converting  an  economic  loss  into  a 
national  asset 

In  spite  of  the  relatively  greater  cost  of 
maintenance,  this  department  must  be  kept 
»oIng  to  give  these  fascinating  little  tots 
what  is  theirs  to  demand— "a  right  start 
in  life."
