Winchester (Fa.) Lodge Gives Use of Home When Fire Damages Hospital

When fire seriously damaged the Memorial Hospital, Winchester (Va.) Lodge, No. 867, offered its Home to the hospital authorities as temporary quarters. This offer was accepted and that same night the furniture was removed from the Home. The next morning the hospital took possession, and in the afternoon the building had been turned into a hospital and the patients moved in. Several places were offered Winchester Lodge for its meetings, the American Legion Biding being finally accepted when the Girls' Athletic Association generously volunteered to give the members the use of its club-room on the second floor of that building.
