RADIO NURSE, a series of 13 talks on the care of the young and the aged, is scheduled to begin in the Women's Hour from ZB stations on Friday, June 26. The speaker is Mrs. Beth. Bowen (above), a registered nurse and mother of a family. Her talks will cover the use and abuse of the home medicine chest, caring for the aged at home, nursing an elderly invalid, the prevention of home accidents, the first signs of infection, skin irritation, juvenile skin infections, the best weight for the best health, outward signs of inward problems, recognising distress signals, "those growing pains," the lighter side of nursing, and life from a hospital bed. Mrs. Bowen gives a good deal of practical advice in a simple and friendly style. An experienced broadcaster, she has given health talks in Women's Hour before, with the emphasis—as in this series—on prevention rather than cure.0
