Sweden, like all the Scandinavian countries, is well in the vanguard of health measures. Its new hospital city, which is being built by the Government at a cost of £2,000,000 in lovely country near Stockholm, is surely unique. This complete city will comprise, besides the main hospital building, w r ith its operating theatres, laboratories and X-raj rooms, a children’s hospital, psychiatric hospital, rheumatism clinic, and special buildings for cancer cases, recreation grounds, swimming pools, a church, and concert halls, and homes for professors, students and nurses. The completion of the city will take several years; the world has been ransacked for the latest designs and inventions. One of the most interesting is an entirely new type of window wdiich admits air without draughts, dust or noise, which is partly of British design.
