He will leave by the Niagara from Auckland on June 25, and proposes to visit Honolulu, the United States, England, and Norway. Mr. A. D.

Referring to the work of the clinic, Mr. J. L. Saunders, director of the division of dental hygiene, said the Wellington clinic had been giving more service than any other in the Dominion, but as it had not been practicable to increase the staff of student dental nurses beyond 25 last year, and 30 this year, it was regretted that it had not been possible to attend to all who had applied. The director added that the Wellington clinic was the only one in the Dominion where chddren -below school age were being exclusively treated.
