Church Women United celebrate Friendship Day May 14 Pea Ridge Baptist The Church Women United oped into May Friendship Day, Christian women of Asia and Homecoming sponsored by the Church Women United. The day has become a time to get together and honor women of all ages and act on issues of the day. UCW will provide refreshments during the event but the group will also collect money for the Fellowship of the Least Coin. In 1956, inspired by a visit to Asian countries to promote reconciliation, justice and peace, Shanti Solomon said she had a vision from God show her that prayer could transcend any national boundary. Solomon challenged the

the Presbyterian Church of the U.S.A. to launch a project whereby every Christian prayer should be accompanied by a positive action – that was, to set aside the least coin in her currency. The Fellowship of the Least Coin has blossomed, strengthening ecumenical fellowship and promoting prayer and women can participate no matter what their economic status is. The FLC 2010 made five grants from $10,000 to $5,000. – article submitted by Jane Janke

Homecoming/memorial services will be held Sunday, May 15 at Pea Ridge Baptist Church. Sunday School will be at 10 a.m. with a special music and worship service beginning at 10:15 a.m. Note the change in time. The bluegrass gospel group Rabon Creek, from South Carolina, will be the guest musicians. Pastor Jeff Parker and the congregation invite all former members, pastors and friends to attend and bring a picnic lunch. – article submitted by Ann Carswell

Tryon Daily Bulletin / The World’s Smallest Daily Newspaper

Spread the news, but get story straight News travels fast around here. Good or bad, right or wrong, hot topics are sure to get attention. By now, many of you have read or heard about St. Luke’s Hospital’s plans to build a new wing with six enlarged patient rooms, private bathrooms, a nurses’ station and gym with treatment rooms for physical rehab. And actually many of you have written letters of support for our plans to focus on our orthopedics service line with larger rooms and rehab space. We’re calling it Phase I with all intentions to eventually replace the current facility, that, after four decades, is not so current. Phase I is conservative and long overdue. And it’s also absolutely necessary. If St. Luke’s Hospital is to remain a viable hospital, providing local access to life-saving medical care for our community, we have to make structural - and aesthetic - improvements. The 40-year-old building nestled in the natural beauty of the rolling hillside, has some other challenges, and those are the rolling hillside and odd property boundaries. Because of the topography of the property and that we have generously given away 9.17 acres for neighboring health and human service agencies, St. Luke’s is limited on growth, expansion or even relocation on this property. So this brings us to question - where can we build this new but necessary hospital wing, and how can we pay for this? First, let’s get back to the land issue. In 1969, when regulations prevented additional expansion to the former hospital building on Carolina Drive, St. Luke’s Hospital Board of Trustees and community activist administrator Howard Spika rallied the community, county leaders and our volunteers in the quest for a new hospital to serve Polk County. Everyone rose to the challenge - St. Luke’s Auxiliary

Caring for our Community by Ken Shull

purchased 40 acres of land on Highway 108 and of that acreage, donated 14.13 acres of hospital land to Polk County for the distinct purpose of building a hospital. Individuals, charitable foundations and federal funding through the Hill Burton Act provided $1.6 million, while the county floated $1.5 million in government bonds. In 1972, with great fanfare, the new $3.1 million hospital opened for community tours. St. Luke’s Hospital was state of the art and the pride of this community. In addition to the 14.13 acres within the perimeter road surrounding this new hospital, the county received the former hospital building and property (Jervey Palmer Building) on Carolina Drive, which has remained in use. Add to this a small amount of rent we pay annually to lease this hospital building on Highway 108, Polk County ended up with an outstanding investment. Our current hospital facility is decades old, out-of-date and inefficient. We are faced with an aging facility, cramped patient rooms, and small half-baths with narrow doorways that make it difficult for patients to maneuver. Struggling financially for the past 13 years, our hospital has invested in people and technology, not infrastructure, as we work to provide 24-hour medical care. Last year alone, we spent $970,000 in operational costs for a building that is now valued at $47,000. In addition to costly maintenance, the aesthetics and inefficiencies of our current building have made it difficult to compete for patients who want and deserve a modern, up-to-date facility. We’ve checked into renova-

tions, but that is cost prohibitive. We’ve checked into building a new facility, but that is even more exorbitant. So we’ve determined that a small addition on the current property is the best way for us to meet the needs and desires of our community without having to ask taxpayers to support our efforts. Yes, that’s correct - we do not intend to ask our county commissioners to help fund this project. As a matter of fact, the hospital has never been a routine line item in the budget. But to secure funding for this $6.5 million project, the 15,000-square-foot addition needs to be on land our local hospital corporation owns. To help explain our position, consider this: would you want to spend the time and expense to build a new home on land someone else owns? Neither do we, and neither does our lender. Now, more than ever, St. Luke’s Hospital needs community support in seeking the return or exchange for property that was initially purchased for the hospital. St. Luke’s Hospital is vital to our community, and we must remain viable if our community expects local access to medical care. We are the county’s largest employer with annual payroll of $14 million that generates more than $91 million back into our local economy at a 1:7 ratio. Last year, we paid $246,872.85 to local government for utilities and water and we provided $5 million in uncompensated, charity care and community benefit. If we can’t move forward with our plans to sustain our hospital, then we all lose so much more. As we move forward, rest assured we’ll keep you informed of our progress. Our board, administration, staff and physicians are excited about the plans. We hope you will be too, knowing that St. Luke’s Hospital will continue as your community hospital. And despite our challenges, you will find exceptional care, close to home.

Letter to the Editor

It is McCown Street To the Editor: The street that connects Pacolet Street with Trade Street across the tracks from the store buildings was named for the late M. Ryan McCown, father of the late Vance McCown. Both were attorneys who served Our Area well. When I was a boy (1930s and 40s), long freight trains that extended from well below Tryon to well above it, parked in Tryon to let another train pass that was going the other way on the other track (long since removed). At such times the fire trucks could not get to Gillette Woods, and neither could anyone else, for 10 minutes or more! I understand that it was through the efforts of the senior McCown that permissions were obtained to cut the bank back for the street that was therefore named in his honor. The new street allowed people “on the other side of the tracks” to go on down to South Trade and Landrum without waiting for the freight train to move. If the city fathers decide to make McCown Street onew a y, I h o p e i t w i l l a l l o w traffic to go only from South Trade to Pacolet, since they cannot turn left at the traffic light, but people going from Pacolet to South Trade would be able to turn right at the light. With all due respect to the late John Cowan and his descendants, I hope I don’t see any more references to McCowan or McGowan Street! Please honor the memory of my friends Ryan and Vance McCown now that you understand. – Garland O. Goodwin, Columbus
