CORRECTION, : election of officers through a scientist and far-sighted medical man, the late Frederick Truby King. When Dr. Truby King founded the Mothercraft Society, 31 years ago, in Dunedin, New Zealand, he never dreamed that in his own life- time he would see his teachings cifcle the Em- pire, and become international as well. Mothercraft comes down to funda- mental principles for healthy living. Nutrition and its value and its rela- tion to a strong virile body and mind are presented to the lay people in simple language. prenatal care and its importance to the mother and her unborn 'babe are stressed and later breast feeding, and the necessity of sunshine, sleep and habit training, ete. In some countries of the Empire the young girls in school .and Girl Guides are all given a course of Mothércraft lectures. Mothercraft hospitals . throughout the Empire are all small institutions. None of them have accommodation for more than six mothers, twenty-five babies, and four to six pre-school children. All these hospitals have large Advice Rooms, which are equl- valent to out-patient departments of other hospitals. £ The work of the post-graduate Mothercraft nurse is chiefly education of the parents. She does not handle diseased conditions at all. The slight- est deviation from the normal is re- ported to the family doctor.
