A joint meeting of city and county officials and the hospital board approved adding a third story to the Trevert B. Green Memorial Hospital building. The addition, costing about 7600 dollars, will provide space for about twelve more nurses and allow roughly forty rooms for student nurses.

A new heating plant, estimated at 6000 dollars, is also underway to replace the old system that occupied the first floor of the nurses' home, funded by city and county authorities without extra budget.
