MATRON LINDSCHAU LOVER OF CHILDREN
Aims at Health and Happiness
Matron A. I. Lindschau, who has been appointed matron of the Federated Protestant Children's Homes of South Australia, has had a wide experience, which will be of exceptional value to her in the new work."I love children," she said this morning, "and 1 am looking forward with keen interest to the work before me. I begin my new duties on Monday."Miss Lindschau is tail and dignified,and possesses a personality that will command love and respect. There is a quiet forcefulness about her, and she has the enthusiasm of a zealot for her work. She began her nursing career at the Adelaide Hospital, where she qualified for the general work. She then went to the Queen's Home, and gained her certificate for midwifery. She enlisted for active war service in 1917, and was attached to the British General Hospital in Egypt, Palestine, and Salonica, and in the No. 1 General Hospital, London. She came back in 1920. She gained her massage certificate at Guy's Hospital, London, and her child welfare certificate at the Karitane-Harris Hospital in Dunedin. She spent several years at the Sir Truby King Hospital, in Christchurch. She was three years with the Plunkett Society, and went in for an intense training in the dietetic and psychological treatment of the child. Naturally, she is a keen enthusiast in the Plunkett system."This system is a purely rational and sensible method of preventing the 'illness of a child rather than curing it," she remarked. "We consider that for perfect health there must be strict adherence to the primal essentials. These are laid down as fresh air, proper water, proper food, bathing, clothing, exercise, sensory stimulation, rest and sleep, correct management, and correct mothering."The Plunkett system is responsible for having reduced the mortality rate in New Zealand. One has only to watch its effect on children to become a red-hot enthusiast. Not only the poor mothers, but those of wealthy homes, would do well to follow this scheme. Overeating is as harmful as being ill-fed and wrong food is as bad as none at all."To an extent my training will be most helpful to me in my new position in the care of the young one finds it wiser to erect a fence at the top of the hill rather than to support an ambulance at the bottom. In others words, the prevention of ills of any sort is a great deal preferable to the curing, however effective, afterwards.''The children at the Protestant Home are healthy, and my aim shall be to keep them healthy and happy. 'There are 14 boys and eight girls at Morialta and I shall have two nurses on the staff."

DEATH OF ORIGINAL A.A.N.S. Mrs. Gladys Gwynne Hewitt, who died on September 30, was a member of the nursing staff at Sydney Hospital at the outbreak of war in 1914. She enlisted with the AA.N.S., and sailed with the first contingent of nurses, attached to the 2nd A.G.H. Her husband, Major Frank Hewitt,is a veteran of the South African War and World War I (7th and 59th Bns.). Their only son, Alan, an original of the 2/13th Bn., with service in the Middle East and New Guinea, finished up the last war as an officer of the 2 '17th Bn. The other member of the family, daughter Ailsa, is following in her mother's footsteps as a nurse at the Royal North Shore Hospital. A native of Braidwood, daughter of Dr. Rees Llewellyn, and educated at the public school here, Gladys married Frank Hewitt in 1917. They lived in the Solomon Islands from 1925 to 1934, when they transferred their home to Sydney. Major Hewitt is one of the old identities of the Solomons. He first went there, in the employ of Lever Bros., after the South African War. Guadalcanal, one of the hot spots in the Pacific war, was a plantation the major hewed out of the jungle in 1904, with the aid of carstwhile cannibals. For many years he was manager of Lever Bros. Plantations Ltd., stationed in the islands. In 1934 he was appointed managing director of the company, with headquarters hi Sydney, until his retirement in 1940.
