This newspaper has heard many of these stories and an inspection trip was arranged which was conducted Saturday under the direction of Mel Engstrom, hospital superintendent. As hospital con-- f struction costs are in these days of high prices, the people of Carbon county can be assured that they have received worth for their money. frills of which there is talk are very hard to be And the and are overshadowed, if they are there, by the equipment and f found the apparant planning which are a must for a modem hospital. f I Many savings in equipment purchases were pointed out by Mr. Engstrom who explained how many of these items were bought through government surplus at a fraction of the original cost and the money thus saved was used to purchase other much needed iJ-L'd.ii-U equipment that was not thought possible for installation at this time. When one visits the hospital he expects to find everything in the best condition and when it comes to caring for the sick and injured there should not be the usual quibbling about costs. Some peo4 ple will argue this matter until they are personally involved then only , the best will do. With this thought in mind, and cautious spending, . . too, the hospital board, city and county officials have come up with a building that can be a lasting monument to the people of this county. It is with considerable pride that one can walk through the many facilities of this building and feel that in a small way he has done his part to make it possible.
