'Our Hum i;.:l; Well.spring of the ' v.as ho&en since a Community, wellspring is a source of constant renewal for the community is served. Milford Valley Memorial Hospital is not only here to serve in the time of illness and injury but offers health rare information and services such as the mammography clinics, and hearing clinics. In addition to services, Milford Valley Memorial Hospital provides employment for ',0 full and part time employees. The facility also generates hundreds of aonars in revenue for local businesses each month. Hospitals keep our communities healthy. The reverse is also true. Communities must keep the hospital healthy. In order to serve well hospitals need a properly maintained building with up to date adequate, well trained staff and .Tioney enough to operate from month to month. Our local hospital has needs in all oi the above mentioned areas, our medical community faces a shor-ag- e of physicians, and registered equ-ime- -- nurses. Several pieces of vital equ-omedical community faces a shortage of physicians, and registered nurses. Several pieces of vital ur equipment have become obsolete and need to be replaced. The 24 year old building needs a new roof and floor coverings. Funding for salaries competitive with the industry is not available so recruitment and retention for professional staff Is difficult. Neither Is there money for major building repairs or new equipment. Another item of interest Is the fact that Milford Valley Hospital is operated with out subsidy. The used for tax lew (which has building maintenance only) is minimal and is no longer adequate to meet the needs of the aging hospital facility. Measures to meet these needs have been instituted. Dr. MikeSy-mon- d wa. written a grant with the hope of procuring funds to recruit physicians. The Hospital continues to sponsor a memorial scholarship fund lor the purpose of supporting those interested in a healthy care career. There is the opportunity for an increased mill lev to help with m ainten ance and equ ipm em replace -ment, if the Countv Commit ion, the Administrative Hospital Board and the public will support the effort. Most recently, members of the Hospital Staff have lgun to pledae money from their .salaries lor an equipment fund. Any one in the community who can come up with ideas to improve the economic status of the Hospital, please contact the administrator Mary Wiseman or Mike Yardley, Board Chairman. len ORTHODONTIST OPENS OFFICE IN LEAVER tists as practiced certified specialist. a He in the I.os Angeles area on the staff of Rancho and was Los Amigos Hospital prior to his return to St. Geroge in 1983.

Orthodontics is the area ;df den-- 1 tistry concerned with the correction of tooth positions and impro-ie- r occlusions or bites. These corrective procedures can be done at almost any age. Dr. Prince reports that approximately 7". f, of his patients are voung people and adolescents from 6 to la jears old but the remaining 27;. range in age all the way to 73 years. "Orthodontics is becoming more and more popular all the time." Prince states, "due In part to recent technologies which makes straightening teeth quicker and easier. The fact that some cases can lie treated with 'see through' braces or no braces at all has a social appeal to esthetic minded adults ''.Because bite problems commonly are associated with the way teeth develop and erupt and also with the way the jaws grow, most dental professionals recommend an orthodontic examination early in the child's development, usually around 8 years old. At that stage of growth, many problems can be intercepted, thus miiumiim the time and expense of future orthodontic therapy.
