TRUBY KING
Sir,-I was interested to ‘read in »your paper a letter under the heading "Truby King." Many people wonder why the name of this great man has never been given to the Society which he founded in New Zealand. He gave the greatest part of his life, his health, his money, and finally his beautiful home, for the betterment of the health of little children. Does not the governing body of the Plunket Society appreciate this? In Calcutta, India, clinics were successfully established and conducted by a New Zealand Karitane matron many years ago. The signboard reads, "The Truby King Baby Clinic,’ which surely should be its correct title.
