An integral part of the Hospital will be its Medical School, which in the past has attained a world-wide fame under the guidance of such renowned men as Dr. Robert Bentley Todd, Sir William Bowman, Dr. George Budd, Mr. Richard Partridge, Sir William Fergusson, Sir Thomas Watson, Dr. Arthur Farre, Sir George Johnson, Dr. Lionel Beale, 6 After a competition among leading architects, a design for a hospital of 600 beds, submitted by Mr. W. A. Pite, r.R.I.B.A., was accepted, and the proposed building, arranged and equipped in accordance with the latest principles of modern science, will stand in the forefront of the great hospitals of the world. GENERAL HOSPITALS. SPECIAL HOSPITALS. Mr. John Wood, Sir William Overend Priestley, Sir Alfred Garrod, Dr. W. S. Playfair, Lord Lister, and other great physicians and surgeons. Progress of tbe Appeal. At the time of going to press the appeal made to the public has realised £175,000, including the value of the site. The contract for the out-patient and casualty department is to be proceeded with almost at once, and the Committee appeals urgently for the remaining sum of £125,000. It must not be forgotten that the inhabitants of the district immediately adjacent to the new site are very poor, and such monetary help as they are able to give to the project can be but small. On the other hand, as patients from all parts of Great Britain are constantly under treatment in its wards, King’s College Hospital may fairly claim to be a national charity, and appeals for support to all generous benefactors through- out the country. As many donors desire their contributions to be earmarked, some for Hospital purposes, others for the Medical School, it it is now proposed to divide the Fund as follows: — FUND A. — For the Building of the New Hospital. FUND B. -For the Building and Endowment of the Medical School. FUND C. — To be applied at the discretion of the Committee to A or B. Subscribers are asked to specify to which Fund or Funds they desire their contributions to be paid. In the event of no such specification being made, it will be assumed that the donation is to go to Fund A. 7 The Committee has decided that large Donations or Bequests shall carry with them the right to name portions of the new Hospital, thus The sum of £l,000 names a Bed. „ £10,000 names a Ward. „ £20,000 or £30.000 names a two or three storey block. Cheques should be made payable to “ King's College Hospital Removal Fund," crossed “ Lloyd's Bank, Limited, Laxo Courts Branch," and addressed to George Heyer, Esq., King’s College Hospital, London, W.C. 8 SOUPS.
