Judge Streetnian dpclared that to
his mind tb hospita) embodies one
of the finest ideals in civic govern-
ment and justifiable from any gov-
enuaeatal stsndpouit. "It la not
this selfish coldly logical viewpoint
which appeals to me bowevar. It is
rather tbe thought that lu this in-
stitution tbe city and county govern-
ments afe enabled to give expression
to that altruistic sentiment whicti
move right tliakiag aad right feel-
ing people to minister to tbe needs of
the helpless aad ia a very real fash-
ion obey the mandate of the golden
rule."
One feature of tbia altruistic
sentiment be said which waa large-
ly influential in bringing about tbe
building waa tbe desire to remove
the insane from the county jail and
another feature the interesting ex-
periment in co-operation between tbe
city and county government.
Be closed hi remarks with a trio-
ate to Jefferson Da via and In ac-
cepting the picture expressed tbe
hope that it would inspire every
person connected with the institu-
tion whh the "same lofty character
and devotion to duty which made
Davis our leader and our example."
