HOSPITAL CLUBS AT HOME
"The clubs at the various hospitals continue to be of great use to the jjatients. There they find reading, writing, and billiard rooms, recreation of various descriptions, and are supplied with home-cooked-, appetising food of the best quality at- a price fully thirty per cent, less than what they are charged elsewhere. Concerts and entertainments are given regularly once a week, and during 'the summer a large number of boats are hired and placed at the disposal of the patients of No. 2 General Hospital, Walton. These afford the men great opportunity for relaxation, judging from the way they are always kept fully occupied."—Extract from the remarks made by Mr. I. W. Raymond, Chairman of the Executive of the New Zealand War Contingent Association, in presenting the annual report at a, meeting of the executive in March last.
