COUNTER Counter's for Finer Jewellery for Over Half a Century in Huron 'County RED CROSS NOTES - Outpost Nurse Has -Many • Experiences • The story of the Outpost Hospitals and the experiences of one who was for many years a charge nurse in the Ontario "Outpost of mercy" is going far afield these days. It all came about when Mr, S. J. de Lot- biniere, representative in Canada of the British Broadcasting Corpora- etion, dead an article dealing• with the history of Canadian Red Cross Outpost Hospitals. The article, pre- pared by the Bulletin Editdr appear- ed in a, recent issue of Saturday Night. Mr. -de Lotbiniere, who felt that British women especially would find this material of • exceptional interest, arranged to have Miss Ida, Brand, Assistant 'Superintendent of Field Nurses, snake a recording to be played in Britain. The great distances which Outpost nurses cover, the hazardous road conditions they- must overcome to reach their patients, and the variety of "jobs" which come their way were interestingly described by Miss Brand in the recording. She says "out on' the job may mean anything from attending a mother .in child birth to operating on lambs." She had herself officiated at operations (at theearnest petition of a farmer) on a dozen lambs, all of whom were threatened with death from "Wool ball". "We often got gifts . in kind for our services—a ' rvrces—a bag of apples o•- had z firewood cut for us." Once at a very poor log shack, where she has as- sisted in bringing a baby into the world, the husband insisted that she take hone one of his chickens he had no money to offer. The chick- en "being too nimble to be caught in the usual way, the father simply took down his gun and shot the bird neat- ly through the head! v MILITARY NEWS 0.%S.M.N.
