The course was held over a 10-week pericd, one class a week, in the Public Health rooms at South Huron Hospital. Members were conducted on a tour through the hospital one afternoon by Mrs. Jack Del- bridge, Assistant Superintendent. Unit Ready When the desire for such a course became evident in the district, it was met by a ready- and-waibing health unit. Feeling that the need might well arise, the unit was represented last year by Miss Cunnningham at a series of classes in Toronto, ducted by a member of the staff of Maternity Centre, New York, where such classes have been given for g number of years. When enquiries by women of the district became numerous, Miss Cunningham organized the class and drove to Exeter one night every week to give lec­ tures. Another Course Local public health nurses will attend another series of lectures in Toronto this summer and plans are underway for them to begin a new class in Exeter soon. Women interested In attend­ ing the course should be able to receive more definite informa­ tion regarding the date for reg­ istration by contacting either of our local nurses. con- News of Kirkton By MRS.
