Book excerpt: Excerpt from Queen's and Canada The rebuilding of the Kings ton General Hospital has been a vast task during these last seven years, but such action was inevi table as part of the improvement 1 of the Medical Faculty. In addi 3 tion to the new Infectious Diseases Building, the Service Building, and the new Clinical Wards, a Pathological Laboratory has been erected by the generosity of the late Senator Richardson and Mrs. Richardson. This building policy has cost in all, although it must be re membered that much of the money has come from the Govern ment and from private sources, about The result is that the overhead of the University has risen alarmingly at a time when the ability on the part of individuals to give has been less ened by serious taxation. In 1918, in response to the challenge of Dr. Douglas that he would contribute for endowment if a similar sum could be secured elsewhere, a great effort was made and the whole amount raised. Once again, however, a for ward move has to be made. Learning does not stand still, and Queen's must keep in the forefront of the race. The University has been built upon the reputation of its staff, and conditions must be such as will attract men of the best type and not lay unfair stress upon personal loyalty to the institution.
