School Hospital. For the cadet's protection we maintain a modern and thoroughly equipped infirmary and a resident nurse is on constant duty. Martha Gaston Hospital in Lebanon is available in the rare in- stances of serious illness. Medical and nurses' attention in the school hospital only is included in the tuition. Health Safeguards. We believe that adequate med- ical attention and constant physical supervision under trained physicians is one of the surest safeguards of health and happiness. The cadet at Castle Heights Military Academy is assured of intelligent and thorough physical attention. If the boy is unable to attend to his school duties he reports to the iniirmary at 8 A.M. and remains there under care of doctor and nurse until he is discharged as ready for duty again. Minor ailments, which are practically the only ones we have, receive immediate care and are not allowed to become aggravated and to develop into something of a serious nature. The health record of our school com' munity through the years has been exceptional and we pride ourselves in this fact. New Hospital. During recent years our hospital facilities have been enlarged by the construction of the latest addition to the school plant, a new structure named for the President's wife, the Mildred Armstrong Hospital.

Modern and complete in every detail, its completion marked another milestone in the building of an ideal school plant. The structure is of brick, commodious and two stories in height. The first floor comprises a waiting room, treatment room, diet kitchen, bath, nurses apartment, supply room and five bedrooms. On the second Hoot is another bath, kitchenette, and ten bedrooms. There is an isolation ward for any contagious disease. The interior is decorated in a most tasteful way. A nurse is in residence and the school doctor meets sick call at 7:30 each morning and comes as often thereafter as necessary. These provisions for the care of our cadets are a source of tremendous satisfaction to our patrons. VIEWS IN MILDRED ARMSTRONG HO K ,Km - 'aaa S
