HOSPITAL KITCHEN
Cockroaches Abundant (N.Z. Press Associotlon? WHANGAREI, July 14. Cockroaches were so abundant in the kitchen of the Dargavllle Hospital that they caused a Kaipara Hospital committee member who saw them to dream about them. The member. Mrs J. C. Ambury, told the committee yesterday that she saw the insects when she went into the kitchen one night. The walls seemed black with them and ihere were so many on the floor that they crunched underfoot. “In fact there were so many that I dreamed about them,” she said. The matron (Miss E. Jones) said the staff had been using aerosol sprays as repellants. The secretary (Mr M. H. Guthrie) said the problem was under action.
