A HOSPITAL MATTER.

A HOSPITAL MATTER.

(To the Editor.) Sir..—l notice in the correspondence column of your issue of the 11th inst a complaint re the treatment meted out to the laundry staff at the hospital. Now, Sir, the facts are as follows: — Instead of the members taking their notice, as given by the Matron, they left the work at once, and one member gave it out that they had gone on strike. Being out of work, I immediately went to the hospital to seek employment, and whilst I was there two other applicants arrived,, and we were engaged at once. I believe the Matron had several applications by phone, so the three wlto left the work so suddenly must have advertised the fact well. Being a Colonial myslf, I shall not complain of losing my job if I run away from it. I think “ Colonial” should have taken the notice given, then have written to the Board explaining the position, and I am sure she would have received a fair deal. Thanking you in anticipation.— I am, etc, ANOTHER COLONIAL. Greynjouth, February 12. ;
