School For Nurses

NIUE IS. September, 10 DR. GRAHAM MILNE is doing a useful job as C.M.O. on Niue and has shown a keen interest in Public Health problems. He is at present working on the problem of eradicating the mosquito responsible for the spread of Filaria and hopes to be able to establish some control by the introduction of a cannibal type of mosquito from Hawaii.

Another of his contributions has been the establishment of a Nursing School. This was started some time ago as a special class attached to the

local school but with the advent of another European Sister, a school was established.

Sister L. Burrows is the Tutor Sister and the School promises to raise the standard of native nursing on the island.
