HOSPITAL SUNDAY is not one of the flag-days or money-getting festivals that sprang up in such profusion during the war. It has been going on for over fifty years, and it now provides ten per cent, of the incomes of more than 250 hospitals and similar institutions. It is worth noting that this money is used solely for the treatment of patients-including the supply of surgical appliances to the number of over 9,000 a year-and not in any circumstances for building. As there are every day 10,000 patients actually occupying beds in London hospitals, and 20,000 out-patients receiving treatment, it is obvious that the work that the Fund has to do is on a colossal scale.
