Many, boards of guardians are still disposed to regard nightshirts! as a luxury, says a Ministry of Health report on casual wards. The provision of nightshirts, how. ever, is becoming more common especially in the North of England. In some wards, iron bedsteads with mattresses, blankets; sheets and pillows are also provided, but there are wards where the casuals sleep on the floor on rugs, some cases the casuals, instead of slinging the hammocks provided, sleep on the floor, using the hammocks as bedding.
