She was Jan Aikens then and after growing up in the Mitchell area she had trained at St. Mary's Hospital, Kitchener. Before coming to Wingham she worked for a few months at that hospital. Jan met her husband, Jim, after coming to Wingham hospital where he is a mem- ber of the ambulance staff. They were married in 1975. They belong to the Wingham and District Snowmobile Association and . enjoy outings with the club if they can arrange leisure time off at the same tune. On-call time (nine out of 21 days) is one of Jan's pet peeves, but she understands it is necessary in a small hospital. Larger institutions have an x-ray technologist on duty at all times, which .means shift work. But Jan says she prefers shift work ..because, "at least your time Mrs. Wm. off is your own." The beeper system, which Wingham adopted more than five years ago, has been a godsend for workers like Jan who can now enjoy the out- doors and get away from the phone. The beeper allows Jan to be involved in one of her favorite hobbies, gar- dening, even when she is on call, and leaves her free to go driving with Jim as long as they don't leave the 10 -mile limit of thebeepers' range. Jan enjoys her work and especially. lilies the variety of the job. She is always seeing different people and conducting different examinations.' She also does some bookkeeping since a member of their staff was laid off last year. Cold winter nights find Jan at home,. busily engaged in crochet work or talking to her houseplants. If x-rays in living color are ever intro- duced, one will surely reveal that Jan • McWhinney has ,a green thumb! '. Rintoul hosts WMS meeting Whitechurch — The Women's Missionary Society of . Chalmers church met April 15 at the home of Mrs. William 'Rintoul. Leader Mrs. Elroy Laidlaw opened the meeting with a call to worship and after singing a hymn, Mrs. John Bell led in prayer.
