We, the Attending Physicians, are pleased to make the following report:

During the past year we have had a very successful response from our patients, especially in the treatment of our diabetics, of which we found we had several in this Institution. Upon finding these conditions, steps were immediately taken to put these patients on a special diet served on tables away from the other patients, and through the administration of Insulin we are very happy to report that our diabetic conditions are completely under control. This we relate in our report because we think it is worth while for the public to know as any problem we physicians have to contend with.

We, at this time, wish to extend our heartiest thanks to the Honorable Board of Trustees, the Superintendent and Matron, and to those employees and attendants who have given their very best.

Respectfully submitted,
E.H. JONES, M.D.
A.M. CHRISTOFFERSON, M.D.
Attending Physicians
