^ EVERY COUNTY IN STATE GET BENEFIT OF HOSPITAL FUND Durham, Nov. ro.—-More than a million dollars a year will be available for hospital work in $!orth and South Carolina as a result of the provisions made by the late James B. Duke, George G. Allen, of New York, chairman of the board of trustees of the Duke Endowment, said while in Durhanr last week. The principal f method of distribution is on the basis of $1.00 per day per charity patient in hospitals of the states. If this does hot use up the in come, then the Endowment fund will assist communities, counties or other groups in building hos ^ pitals, but will not build them entirely. Mr. Allen said. Not even Mr. Duke, with all his study and thought, realized the extent of his benefactions to the charity sick, Mr. Alien said. The fund is expected to help build and help support hospitals in every county in the Carolinas. Mr? and Mrs. H. A. Blackwell, of Danville, spent the past week end with Airs. A. R. Blackwell.
