Victoria Memorial Chair.
The invalid chair, purchased for the Wannabe Hospital, has arrived. It is of sufficient length to allow almost a grown person to occupy it. The sides are of ornamental wickerwork, with doable floor; part of the upper one moveable, to allow two children to sit up, one at either end. The body is mounted on strong light springs, and the wheels are rubber-tired. On eiohor side is an inscription showing that it was subscribed for as a memorial to our late beloved Queen, Victoria, who died January 22, 1901. The chair is a very neat one, and will doubtless relieve the tediousness of many a child’s enforced inaction.
