There are also maps of the two islands, showing the hospital system of base and subsidiary hospitals and their locations. A large map, illustrating the maternal welfare care of the Dominion, with its

State Maternity Hospitals, its district hospitals and nurses, its training schools and the literature concerning State registration of midwives and the various regulations for training of maternity nurses and midwives, the conduct of ante-natal clinics, etc. There are dolls dressed m the uniforms of the different hospitals, very attractive looking.
