There was an excellent attendance and your Medical Officer
of Health introduced two most instructive films illustrating the
hygienic production of milk and meat. The Ministry of Agriculture
and Fisheries supplemented this by a useful exhibition on rodent
and insect infestation of food premises. The meeting was concluded
by a discussion on the implications of the By-Laws for the Protection
of Food, during which the Food Inspectors emphasized the
vital need for improved food hygiene. So ended a year of progress
for the Greenwich Guild of Hygiene.
