NO WATER FOR BATHS
Plight at Sanatorium
MELBOURNE, Thursday.
So bad are the conditions at Greenvale Sanatorium that it is next to impossible to get a bath. Eighty per cent. of the patients get a bath once a week, and the nurses have to travel to Melbourne, a distance of over 20 miles, for their ablutions on their day off. A water shortage is the cause of the trouble.
