Ladies and Gentlemen: f
We have examined the balance sheet of the Frontier Nurs- I J
ing Service, Incorporated as of April 30, 1959, and the statements  
of income and surplus for the fiscal year then ended, have  
reviewed the system of internal control and accounting proce-
dures and, without making a detailed audit of the transactions,
have examined or tested the accounting records and other sup-
porting evidence by methods and to the extent we deemed .
appropriate. Our examination was made in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards and included all proce-
dures which we considered necessary in the circumstances. ,
In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheet and related
statements of income and surplus present fairly the position of
the Frontier Nursing Service, Incorporated at April 30, 1959, _
and the results of its operations for the fiscal year under review,  
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles g
applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year. “

M
».
  PREFACE
As has been our custom since we were one year old, we pre-
_ sent our annual report of the fiscal affairs and of the field of
  I operations of the Frontier Nursing Service, to its trustees, mem-
i bers, and subscribers.
l We have, as in previous years, divided our report into two
sections. One section is about money, and one section about
work.
I.
V FISCAL REPORT
Our annual audit is so detailed, and therefore so voluminous,
that we do not print it in full. The figures that follow are taken
g from the Exhibits and Schedules of the last audit. We have
` divided these figures into four categories. The auditors’ own
  Summary is the first category. The second is their list of Endow-
` ~ ments and Reserves. The third category covers all Revenue
p Receipts. The fourth category we have put into two columns-
, l to the left the expenditures of the last fiscal year taken from the
,·   audit, and to the right the Budget accepted by our trustees for
”¤7· the current fiscal year, based on last year’s expenditures.
l Q Under a fifth category, called Inventory, we account for all
 A our properties. All five categories are given in sequence on the
A following pages.
  Under the heading of Conclusion, we tell something of what
  the year has meant to us.

MEDICAL AND SURGICAL »
In medical and surgical services, this has been the most _
difficult fiscal year through which we have ever lived. Dr. W. B.
Rogers Beasley, whose ability is equalled only by his kindness,
left for England on September 1. We were without a Medical
Director for the remaining eight months of the year. We left
no stone unturned to fill the vacancy. We advertised in medical `_
journals, we wrote the distinguished members of our National `,
Medical Council, we wrote the boards of churches, we communi- _,
cated with medical agencies. Our correspondence is nearly a if
foot high. None of this led to an application from any doctor ·
qualified to do our work.
The Medical Director of a rural hospital in a vast rural area
with thousands of patients, must be able to handle surgery and Q
complicated obstetrics, as well as sick children and general
medicine. Rarely is anyone but the missionary-minded doctor
so qualified. Even more rarely will a young surgeon or obstetri-
cian be willing to serve in a rural hospital in a rural area. The *
trend in advanced medical education is increasingly towards early `1}
specialization and metropolitan service. '
