N«
lot many weeks ago there passed away from the motion picture industry a man who had devoted half his adult life to the victims of modern plagues; cancer, heart disease and tuberculosis. During the war he dedicated himself to the blind veterans. In peace-time he spent most of himself for the people in the amusement industries who were stricken with tuberculosis and whom he helped back to health at the Will Rogers Memorial Hospital in Saranac Lake.
HIS NAME WAS HAROLD RODNER
H
Le had a dream about the Hospital. He wanted to see it equipped with a Research Section where scientists could develop speedier methods for returning to normal life, those suffering from tuberculosis. We have undertaken to convert this dream into reality.
I,
Ln the beginning this was a modest venture by a small group of Harold's friends. But as the word of what they were planning spread out, many men and women to whom he had given hope and life, insisted upon the opportunity to share in converting Harold's idea into a real Laboratory. Therefore, we are extending an invitation to everyone in the amusement industries to participate.
L
if you have been helped by Harold Rodner, or if he opened the doors of the hospital to one of your employees or friends, or even if you didn't know Harold and the selfless work he did, and would like to perpetuate the spirit of such a man, then join this project with us to keep alive and warm the kindly, sympathetic help he gave to the needy and the suffering.
