OPEN MITS
Third State Institution
of the Kind Is Put to
Its Practical Uses
To-day
STRUCTURES ARE
MOST MODERN
General Architectural Treatment of the
Buildings Is In the Mission Style
—Hollow Tile and Concrete Con
struction
(special to tiie Star-Independent.)
Hamburg, F'a., Oct. 26.—T0-day the
doors of the State's third great tubercu
losis sanatorium were opened to the
patients. The magnificent institution
which has. been in, the course of con
struction for the last year crowns tne
hilltop a mile outside of Hamburg bor
oi.gh and commands a magnificent view
of the Schuylkill \ alley for miles in
every direction.
li.e institution was inspected on Sat
urday by Governor Tenor and Dr. Sam
uel G. Dixon, Commissioner of Health,
under whoso direction it was planned
and constructed.
The enormous demand and need for
sanatorium treatment by the ten thou
sand patients now being treated in the
•State tuberculosis dispensaries has
made the construction ol this new in
stitution necessary. There are a thou
(iand sufferers on the waiting list in ad
dition to the eleven hundred an dlifty
patients bung cave-l to: 2t the Mont
Alto sanatorium and the four hundred
in the :nstitution at Crtyscn. Five hun
dred ind fifty can le ac commodated in
the new sanatorium which has been
provided with every possible facility
for the comt'ort and'si ,'ei.tific treatment
of the sufferers from the dreaded dis
ease.
The general architectural treatment
of the buildings is in the mission style.
They are constructed of hollow tile and
concrete. The administration buildings
occupy the center of the group and
form a Greek cross which is flanked on
either side by great ward buildings
which are eomected with the adminis
tration buildings by covered and glass
enclosed passageways. At either end of
the wards are glass protected solaria.
An ingenious arrangement of the
wards permits the care of cither ad
vanced or incipient casos as the demand
may dictate. The roofs of the wards,
some 22,000 square feet in area, have
been paved to permit patients to enjoy
rest recreation in the open air without
leaving the buildings. The buildings
are so arranged as to provide the max
imum amount of sun light and air.
Beautiful views in every direction
arc obtainable from the institution,
owing to its commanding location. The
grounds surrounding the sanatorium
comprise some three hundred and
eleven acres, the greater part of which
is under cultivation and will supply
much of the poultry, eggs and vege
tables required.
A pure mountain stream, which flows
through the State's property, provides
an adequate water supply, and a com-
