REMEDIAL TRAINING
NEW ZEALAND CAMP TRIBUTE HON. W. E. PARRY
A tribute - to the work being accomplished at a district remedial camp was paid by the Minister of Internal Affairs, Mr W. E. Parry, after a tour of inspection of the camp and its activities. It was explained to the Min-
ister by the commandant, LieutenantColonel H. H. Wood, that the training the men received made up much of the leeway in their physical development, and the results achieved were highly gratifying. “You have here an ideal -I have long, wished to aee worked out in New Zealand in a practical way,” said Mr Parry, who as a promoter of the Physical Welfare and Recreation Act, has taken a special interest in the work of the camp. “There does not seem ■to be, in my observation, a man in all these classes who is not either physically fit -or on the way to attaining that enviable standard.”
