The Tjord is my Shepherd, moet dear,
That eoneidereth His sheep first;
To pastures green, where waters well,
He leadeth me, to quench my thirst.
And when I walk where dangers lurk. He ia forever at my aide:
In the ahadowed valley of death. His loving protection abides.
WifJh a Shepherd's loving goodness. His mercy follows me ever,
And he leads me finally home. To dwell with Him forever.

SURROGATE'S COURT NEWS Cornelia J. Kellum, who died, inter¬ state, at Freeport on December 8, last, left personal property valued at $11,000 and real estate in Freeport and Roosevelt valued at $15,000. The entire estate descends to a son, Her¬ bert A, Kellum, as the only heir-^at- law of the decedent.
The Year Book just issued by the Naaaau HnepitaJ Aesociation indicate* j that NasiMu Hospital is doing an in¬ creased business each yesr a*>d that the Association ie Unancially eound and prosiperous.
The report of the Auditors s/hows that «evet.n.y-eig*it more patients were admitted to the hospital during the past y^r than for the previous year, an increase of 6 8| 10 per cent The to¬ tal number of patients' days was the largest in the institution's history, the number beinir 20,047 ae against 18,50« for 1916. The report sfhows that the average cost of caring for a patient for one day has been $8.29 l\'ii cents, an increase of 17 1{2 cents a day over the fonner years; the in¬ crease being ascribed to the advanced cost of supplies and labor. Regarding the increases in these lines, the report atatea that the ratee now being charg¬ ed for ward and private room patienta will have to be corresponding ad¬ vanced and th''t further efforts muat be made to obtain increased contri¬ butions for maintenance.
An interesiting paragraph in t^e report is one which reveals that dne person out of every six admitted to the hospital ia treated free, shoAring that the institution is doing much work along dharitwble lines.
The need for a hoepital on Ixmg Islarvd to whidh contagious cases can be sent is spoken of in the report, since Nassau Hoepital is not permit¬ ted to admit patienta suffering from oontag^ious diseases. "At present," the report reads, "such cases have to be sent to the city, where not infroquenit- ly the contagious hospitals are over¬ crowded. If cared for at their homes, as is often necessary, these cases, in spite of quarantine, are liable to be¬ come a menace to the community." More buildings are required," the re¬ port reads, "and betiter appliances must be provided as the science of medicine and surgery advances."
The Association has acquired about two acres of land adjoining the pres¬ ent grounds, and this additional apace will he used for future development.
The report compliments the staff and the administration upon their efficiency.
The (hospital, during the past J^ear, has added an up-to-date standard X- Ray machine of high power to its equipment, and the X-Ray room is in charge of a comoetent operator, resi¬ dent at the hospital. Radiographs can be obtained upon short notice and ait moderate expense. Physicians of Nas¬ sau County and other parts of lahe Island have eagerly availed themselves of this arrangement and have thus avoided the danger and delay inci¬ dent to sending patients to the city.
A table of patients admitted for the year ending Mandh 31, 1917, shows that 179 varieties of afflictions that call for surgical aid were treated. The list shows that 106 cases of appendi¬ citis were given surgical attention; of these only ten died and only one was unimproved. There were 89 dif¬ ferent brands of ailment that were given medical treatment; of these the greater number were for lobar pneu¬ monia, with twenty-seven patients treated and nine deatiis. The total number given surgical treatment was 909, and those treated medicinally numbered 339.
