WOMEN RADIOLOGISTS.
MARIE CURIE HOSPITAL. A tribute to early women radiologists as “an army of martyrs forming part of a noble body of women stretching back via Nurse Cavell and Joan of Arc to Eve,” was paid by Mr Stanley Baldwin at the opening of the Marie Curie Hospital, Hampstead, England. This is the first British hospital organised and entirely staffed by women for the treatment of women suffering from cancer and similar diseases. The building was designed by Miss Elizabeth Scott, architect of the new Shakespeare Memorial Theatre, Strat-ford-on-Avon. Mr Baldwin contrasted the dust of controversy in politics with the “purer, sweeter streams of English life,” such as are to bo carried on at the hospital.
