Travelling Orthopaedic Clinic*. The New Zealand Crippled Children Society hopes to see established travelling orthopaedic clinics which will enable crippled children in country districts to obtain the advice of specialists. The society has allocated £lOOO towards this purpose and is working in close co-operation with the Department of Health and with hospital boards towards the objective aimed at. The proposals are that the society will search out and notify the cases to the department, and that specialists appointed by the department will visit and examine the children at the clinics to be established at the main public hospitals in the districts concerned, and after consultation with the medical superintendent as to treatment necessary.
