TO THE EDITOR
Dear Sir, —During my visit to your toyn 1 have been astounded at tlie inadequate and unhygienic provisions which are made for the Plunket nurses to carry out their valuable services of interviewing mothers and their babes. The furniture of the existing primitive room, which is a public thoroughfare to a ladies’ convenience. consists of three chairs, two of which are dilapidated seagrass. A seagrass table for the nurses’ use, a box to accommodate the scales and a dressing table for the use of all and sundry. j If wo bear in mind the fact that the children of to-day are the citizens of. to-morrow. 1 feel sure that in such a progressive town a'-> Opotiki, something could be done to remedy the existing unsatisfactory conditions. FRAMED VISITOR.
