Dr. Batchelor
Nurses will regret exceedingly the sad and sudden death of Dr. Batchelor, of Dunedin. He was one who always took a keen interest m the progress of the nursing profession ; was a medical member of the N.Z.T.N.A., and m every way encouraged the nurses to aim at improvement m their knowledge of their profession. It was largely owing to him that the second Training School for Midwives was established m Dunedin, chiefly for Medical Stuelents ; but allowing facilities for nurses also. His gynaecological wards at the general hospital gave the nurses the opportunity of first-class experience m that branch of work. In every way his influence had the effect of raising the standard of nursing for all those nurses who were fortunate enough to come under it.
