A novel way some Povert y Bay residents have of lidding themselves of their parental responsibilities for the holiday season was explained bv Dr. Hall at the Cook Hospital Board meeting (says an exchange). He said that his house surgeons had informed him that there was usually an influx of children into the institution about Christmns time, tbo majority of whom were suffering from minor complaints only. The reason given for this was that the parents could go away for a holiday while the children were being well cared for at the rate of 2s. a day.
