Council, but six other institutions, namely, the Queen Charlotte's Ante-natal Clinic, the Baby Hospital
and the Golborne, Lancaster Road, St. Clement's and Notting Hill Day Nurseries, are placed
in the same category. It was obviously desirable that each of these should be represented on the
Advisory Committee. Of these six institutions, two (the Golborne Day Nursery and the Lancaster
Road Day Nursery) are attached to their respective infant welfare centres and are controlled by
the same voluntary committees, and one (the Baby Hospital) is an institution controlled by the same
committee as the Baby Clinic. Thus these three institutions were already adequately represented on
the Advisory Committee, and the Council decided to invite the remaining three to nominate representatives
to serve on that Committee.

WOMEN HEALTH OFFICERS.
??? The maternity and child welfare duties allotted to the Council's women health officers
are as follows :—
1. To visit the homes of all newly-born children among the working classes within
21 days after birth, and subsequently as circumstances indicate.
2. To visit the homes and make investigations in regard to still-births and infantile
deaths.
3. To visit and give advice to parents in cases of ophthalmia, zymotic enteritis and other
diseases causing deaths amongst infants.
4. To visit and report upon all cases of puerperal fever and pyrexia.
5. To investigate applications under the Council's scheme for the supply of milk and
meals free or below cost price, admissions to the maternity home and convalescent
homes.
These officers also attend at the infant welfare centres in their respective areas on doctors'
consultation days in order to assist in the work and to co-ordinate their efforts with those of the
voluntary and salaried workers attached to these institutions.
