NURSES FOREGATHER

Prideaux, when over 40 members of the Bay of Plenty Branch of the Registered Nurses’ Association (including visiting members from Tauranga and Rotorua branches) gathered to meet Miss Menzies the Executive member for the districts. After being welcomed by Miss Runciman and presented with a shoulder spray on behalf of the Bay of Plenty members, Miss Menzies spoke on the affairs of the Association, many points of interest being brought forward.
