H7217 Bethany Methodist Episcopal Hospital, perhaps the most outstanding feature of
Methodism in Kansas. There are 250 beds and the hospital is a great power
for good in the community. In 1917 Bethany took care of over 2,000
patients. It is a thoroughly modern institution and cost $325,000. Kansas

H7218 Wesley Methodist Episcopal Church. This little mission church is in a growing
community filled with well paid workers in the mills and packing houses,
but who are hard hit by the requirments that they buy bonds and subscribe
to all war activities liberally. The membership is 150 and there is no
other Protestant Church anywhere in the neighborhood. The house next door
is indicative of the type of people in the nearby section of the city.
