Nurses

NOUMEA has established a comfortable rest-home for American nurses in the Genie Valley. The establish ment was officially opened in June last, and represents a friendly gesture to the United States forces by the inhabitants of New Caledonia. The home is set in the midst of a beautiful garden; and a tireless committee, under the leadership of Mme. Hagen, Mme. Morlet. M. Martin and Mme. Martin, has succeeded in mak ing the interior of the “Foyer des Infirm ieres Americaines” at once artistic and comfortable.

Mr. T. A. Greene, of the British Service, New Hebrides, resigned on May 7. He entered the service in the Western Pacific in February, 1913, and transferred to the New Hebrides in 1940.
