    Selby & District War Memorial Hospital and Brooke Dispensary. ANNUAL MEETING OF SUBSCRIBERS. On Tuesday night, January 29th, the Annual General Meeting of the Subscribers to these Institutions was held in the Museum Hall, Selby, under the presidency of Mr. W. T. Everatt, J.P., C.C., who was supported by the principal Officers and a numerous attendance of Governors and Subscribers. THE SECRETARY’S REPORT. Mr. Brabbs read the Report as printed on pages 7 and 8. The Chairman thought the Report was an excellent one, and covered the doings of the Hospital for the past year, and on the pro¬ posal of Mr. J. H. Dixon it was adopted. THE MEDICAL REPORT was presented by Dr. Todd, who said their work was covered by the report. He saw in the report there was no mention of the X ray work, and he mentioned that 127 exposures of Violet Rays had been made. The Out-patient Department during the year had been busy and the work well done. THE TREASURER’S STATEMENT as audited, was presented, and shewed increased payments by patients. The total receipts had been £2,853 15s. 4d., and the payments £2,320 18s. 2d. The statement was accepted, and the Treasurer thanked for his services, as was also Mr. J. W. Pickles for his work as auditor, to which position he was unanimously re-appointed. ELECTION OF GOVERNORS. At the outset a letter was received from Mrs. Cochrane, notifying that, as she was leaving the town shortly, she would not be eligible for re-election on the Board of Governors. The Chairman expressed regret at the news that Mrs. Cochrane was going to leave them, and said she had been an excellent member of the Board, and he thought no lady had worked so hard. They owed her a deep debt of gratitude, and he moved that they record the fact on their minutes. Mr. J. H. Dixon seconded, and said they all regretted that Mrs. Cochrane was leaving, and he agreed that it was right that they should place on their records what she had done for the Hospital. She seemed to fit in where she was wanted. The resolution was unanimously adopted, and with the addition of Mrs. A. L. Cochrane, the seven other retiring Governors were re¬ elected, viz., Mrs. Scott, Mrs. Ullatliorne, Messrs. W. J. Hanlay, T. Hall, A. L. Cochrane, II. A. Middlebrook, and P. Cheesman.
