N.Z. STUDENT NURSES’ ASSOCIATION
ANNUAL CONFERENCE (P.A.) WELLINGTON, July 3. “New Zealand is the only country with a student nurses’ association such as yours,” said the Director of the Division of Nursing (Miss M. I. Lambie), opening the fourth annual conference of the New Zealand Student Nurses’ Association. “We in New Zealand,” she added, “must keep in line with the rest of the world if we wish to retain our status of nursing among the countries of the world, and if you'nurses hope to have a future outside the Dominion.” The Dominion president of the association (Miss Helen Campbell), who presided, said in her report that dne of the important events in the nursing year was the recognition by the Government of the Registered Nursing Association as the nurses’ governing body. This did away with the necessity for forming a nurses’ union. Officers elected were:—president, Miss M. Goldney (Napier); vice-presi-dents. Misses R. Mclntosh (Auckland) and H. A. Dalgety (Thames); executive, Misses I. Harkess (Oamaru), R. Thomas (Christchurch). H. Higgs (Wellington), ahd G. Thompson (Nelson).
