HOSPITAL TELEPHONES

A PATIENT’S SUGGESTION. TRANSACTION OF BUSINESS. HAMILTON, July 9. A suggestion that a telephone with an adjustable cable should be placed in each ward of the Waikato Hospital was. the subject of a letter from an ex-patient to the board.

The proposal was referred to the finance committee for favourable consideration.
