OUT OF THE LIMELIGHT.
In the appendix to the annual report of the Board of Health the following paragraph, under the heading of “Hospital Boards,” appears: “There is not a great deal of kudos in hospital board work and men seeking merely personal advancement in public life do not as a rule use the hospital hoards as a stepping stone thereto. Thus we find them free from those individuals, who, though looming large in the limelight, yet oh account of the many irons they have; in the fire and the little real interest they have In any one else hut themselves, are of but little value to the. bodies of which they are members.- Hospital work is by no means simple. Even the lay administration is highly specialised, hut it contains problems and questions of enthralling interest. It is small wonder, therefore, that wo find men giving up other public body work and devoting themselves entirely to hospital hoard activities, often during the entire span of their active life.”
