THREE
EXPANDED CLINIC FACILITIES
AT ST. JOSEPH’S INFIRMARY
(Continued from Page 2)
Spalding donated funds for con
structing a surgical wing.
That section was rebuilt in
1929 into the present three-story
north wing', with the addition of
a Gothic chapel and operating
rooms and remodeling of Haver-
ty Hall, which is composed of
wards. In 1909 the south wing
was built with funds donated
by Colonel Jack J. Spalding. The
last piece of property, which
gave the infirmary the entire
block, was donated in 1940 by
Mrs. James L. Dickey, daughter
of the first benefactor, Mrs. Mc
Whorter.
Atlanta’s phenomenal growth
in population in recent years
brought even more pressing de
mands upon St. Joseph’s than
were presented in former years,
and in 1946 plans were made for
the construction of the new ad
dition.
While St. Joseph is a Catholic
Institution, the tender and ef
ficient care it has lavishly bes
towed upon its patients through
the years has not been limited to
Catholics. Ninety per cent of

ephs’ for treatment have been

That this was known and ap
preciated was evidenced by the
fact that Atlantans of all religi
ous affiliations actively backed
and participated in the two
campaigns conducted to secure
funds for the new addition.
