“Dr. Bowker's experience in managing a hospital in his home city, and his hospital and dispensary work in Washington, assure us a businesslike management of this new branch of our work.
“Our need at present is for drugs and surgical dressing, and it is hoped that the druggists of the city may contribute.
“The dispensary opened Thursday, February 1, 1912, at 10 A.M., which will be the regular daily hour, and all those who are interested are invited to inspect the new rooms.”
You notice that we opened February 1, 1912, and our annual report in May Tidings, 1913, shows the following:
