Carols At Wellington Hospital

ICK peopie in hospitals always receive something in the way of extra comforts and entertain- | ment at Christmas time, and at the Wellington Public Hospital one of the most interesting Yuletide ceremonies is a procession through the hospital of nurses singing carols. Phe wards are darkened, and in their white uniforms and red capes, oo

and holding lighted candles, the nurses form a slow procession through the hospital, singing .as they go. This Christmas, for the first time, the ceremony was broadcast by 2ZB, and an effective breadcast it made, the soft voices of the nurses and the reverent atmosphere being most impressive. The broadcast is sure to become an annual Christmas feature,
