Although not classed as an
industry, the hospital has a
payroll of approximately $05.- _
BOO, affording employment to '
a number of local citizens and ,
bringing in some skilled personnel
which otherwise would
not be available locally.
From its beginning the hos- pj
pital has been a source of fri
pride to Warren County citizens
and it has received the to
cooperation of local civic groups eg
and other citizens in its op- tj(
oration. This has resulted in _
tontributions towards the pur- I
:hase of linens, room air- con- 1
iitioners, other items and the I
operation of a shop in the
lospital for the convenience of ?
patients. In addition several I
;ontributions in cash have been
nade by local citizens towards
the purchase of new equipment
