Some Nice Customs
by BILL HOSOKAWA

Denver, Colo.
Aside from the tradition of
feasting- during the New Year
season, the Japanese had what
I consider another fine custom
which amounts to turning over
a complete new page in their
lives come January 1. The last
day of the old year, my mother
used to tell me, was a time for
settling up debts, cleaning the
dirt and grime of the old year
out of the house, taking a bath
and facing the new year pure
as the newdriven snow.

My Dad used to stay down
at the office late on New
Year’s Eve. He and some help­
ers would sweep and dust the
■place, mop the floor, wash the
windows, polish the chandelier,
oil the furniture, beat the rug
and otherwise give the place a
complete going over. I don’t
know whether he paid off all
his bills because money mat­
ters weren’t discussed in front
of the kids, but I presume he
did when he was able.
And when the big cleaning

job was done, he’d pick up a
big kettle of Chinese chicken
noodles and bring them home
steaming hot. My mother ex­
plained that in Japan the wea­
ther was pretty brisk, usually,
on New Year’s Eve.
And so it was. traditional
that when the menfolk came
home late after winding up
their responsibilities to the old
year, a hot bowl of noodles was
waiting for them.
We learned to look forward
to that traditional bowl of
noodles. For some unknown
reason we never had that par­
ticular kind of noodles at any
time other than New.Y'ear’s
Eve. That was a treat reserved
for a special occasion.
And, in Japan, at least the
old Japan that my folks knew,
it was okay to wish one’s
friends a happy New Year any
time during the month of Jan­
uary. No one bothered much
with work or business for the
first ten days or so of the new
year. Nice custom, don’t you
think?
— Pacific Citizen

Welfare Ministry “white paper”
There were 710,000 deaths in
all, the paper said, with apoplexy
the largest life-taker.
Other
major causes of death in order
were: cancer, old age, tubercu­
losis, heart disea.se, pneumonia,
and accidents.

JEAN TALON HOSPITAL
Montreal

'JEAN TALON HOSPITAL officially
” dedicated itself to public service in
.-August of 1954. Within the brief space
of five months, some 700 patients have
passed through its doors, justifying the
public need for this new 55-bed hospital.
> With its opening, one dream of Dr.
. George C. Hori, Montreal Nisei surgeon,
has materialized. It is a. dream which
grew out of his devotion to medicine, his
desire to practise medicine on the high
level he has placed it, and on his past
experience as a young doctor with a
growing practice. As his practice grew,
- his problems grew. As in the case with
every new and up-and-coming general
■practitioner, every newly graduated sur, geon in this city, he was faced with the
’problem of lack of bed space for patients
.requiring hospital care. On one of many
emergency cases when an urgently
needed bed was not forthcoming, he
.confessed to a friend, “If I could only
build a hospital of my own where I
- 'could put my own patients’’ His friend
remarked: “Why don't you?”

That was two years ago. Today, on
Jean Talon Street East stands a new
■hospital with a bed capacity for 55
.patients, a hospital whose facilities any
■-'licensed doctor may avail himself of -whenever’ he has need of hospital ser­
vice.
. Lt It is a compact, neatly designed struc­
ture. with the ground floor consisting
' fof a small but fully-equipped laboratory,
. -a dark room, an X-ray department with
■ .'the latest in technical equipment, a cystology department, an Out-Patients’
-Clinic for handling eye, nose, ear, throat,
. skin, stomach, liver, heart and bone dis‘ leases, and a section for administrative

offices, dining room and kitchen. The
first floor is taken up by six-bed wards,
three-bed semi-private and p r i v a t e
rooms, each with its own telephone, oxy­
gen piping connected to a central oxygen
supply, washroom facilities, individual
screens to allow complete privacy when
-desired, intercommunication system for
efficient and immediate communication
between patient and medical staff. On
the top floor is located a major oper­
ating room, with a specially constructed
lamp equipped with permanent flash
bulbs and camera able to take 35 mm.
color pictures during major operations.
A minor operating room, an obstetrical
room, a labor room, a self-contained
nursery with its incubator, its twelve
bassinettes, its own sterilizer, additional
bed space identical to that on the first
floor, space for supplies and sterilizing
unit take up the remaining top floorspace?

were combined by him to do away with
the conventional “institutional” atmos­
phere which is associated with city hos­
pitals. But it is much more than this.
There is a spirit which pervades
throughout the w hole building (— a
spirit which the visitor feels is “differ­
ent”. It is a spirit which has bound the
members of the Board to a common goal
which they feel is worth the hours of
personal sacrifice. It is that spirit which
is evident in the remarks of, the Admin­
istrator, Mr. R. Belhumeur. He says,
“We need beds at a price the public can
afford,” Dr. R. Gendron, the Medical
Director puts it simply as “rendering
public service, using the talents of reas­
onable people with a sincere desire to
serve humanity.”. It is evident, this
spirit, in the. humane and sympathetic
approach to human problems which is
characteristic of the hospital’s Director
of Nursing, Miss Irene Herdan.

Jean Talon Hospital haj a warm and
friendly air about it. The work of a
Japanese Canadian architect, Nobuichi
Yamaoka, is responsible in some meas­
ure for this feeling. The pastel-colored
walls, the gay but restful drapes, the
terra. cotta furniture and soft lights

But the moving spirit is, and always
will be. Dr. George C. Hori with his
restless energy and his “mania” for
getting things done. The fact that Jean
Talon Hospital, which began as his per­
sonal, private dream, is now a public
hospital, has in no way lessened his
interest in the project' nor curtailed his
energies. He will tell you that as a “pub­
lic hospital”, chartered by the Govern­
ment of Quebec and recognized as a
bona fide public hospital by the Fed­
eral Government, in good standing with
the American Hospital Association, the
Canadian Hospital Association, Quebec
Hospital Council and the Quebec Hos­
pital Service Association (commonly
known as the “Blue Cross”), his hospital
will have greater possibilities for ex­
pansion through federal and provincial

As this goes to press, a three-man
delegation including Dr. Gerard La­
Salle, Medical Director of the Univer­
sity of Montreal Hospital and Advisor
on Hospital Problems to the Provin­
cial Government, Mr. R. Belhuraeur
and Mr. Nobuichi Yamaoka, has just
returned from Ottawa with official
guarantee that a minimum of §125,000,
half from the Federal Government
and half from the Provincial Govern­
ment, will be forthcoming for the

a decade ago...

financial aid.
He is, today, happy and quite under­
standably, proud of the hospital which
he launched with personal funds amount­
ing to over $600,000. His little hospital
has become an institution recognized as
an “open hospital” as opposed to the
“clo-sed hospital”, its only basis for staff
appointments being that the individual
be qualified and licensed to practise in
the Province of Quebec and that he
bring to the hospital the humane atti­
tude toward people and a desire for
maintaining the best standards of med­
ical practise. At present, there are five
resident internes and some seventy doc­
tors and specialists participating in
giving service, using the facilities of
the hospital.
Dr. Hori and the Board of Governors
have not stopped dreaming. They are,
at the moment, planning a new addition
to accommodate additional beds. They al­
ready foresee additional Out-Patients’
services in dentistry, obstetrics, and
neuropsychiatry. Where is the money
coming from? They are not"quite sure,
but they will keep working.

Dr. Hori has summed it up as follows:
“Difficulties make it all the more in­
teresting — and I have a personal satis­
faction of practising medicine the way
I want to practise it. To stop fighting
is to die.” Dr. Hori is a fighter.
This is the story behind the new
three-storey hospital building — a hos­
pital whose limits, even in the short
period since its inception, are alreadybeing taxed by the needs of the public.
This is the story behind the buildingwhich is listed in the city- directory
simply as “Jean Talon Hospital.”
