Ambulance Corps
Does Fine Work
During the first eleven tluuuths t,rf
1949, ne-iriy 900 motor accident vic:-
tima ,were: treated for injuries of
varying• dogreas by at. �oht Anibu'
lance personnel at highway f nit aid
posts throughout Ontario. In addi-
don another several hundred., als6
injured in motoring, mishaps wera
given first aidtreatment by trained
personnel in two ambulances whickx
are maintained on Ontario's high-
ways for this purpose by the, As4u-
oiation.
This worthwhile program of high-
way first aid was instituted by the
St, John Ambulance back in 1927.
Today there are 67 highway first aid
posts dotted along the highways of
this province at carefully selected
points. These highway posts are now
jointly maintained by th•e Ontario
Motor League, the Canadian Bed
Cross and the St, John Ambulance,,
These organizations also jointly
maintain ambulance patrols on these,
same highways, from April to Dec-
ember each year, These ambulances
are manned by trained St, John.
Ambulance first aiders, who fre-
quently are senior medical students,
In addition to helping victims of
traffic accidents, these patrol, irt-
spect the highway first aid posts,
replenish the first aid equipment and
supplie; at these posts and conduct
first aid training for residents of
local areas,
This is just one phase of an ex-
tensive program carried oat by that
St. John. Ambulance for the welfare
of the Canadian public, Other ac-
tivities include training and service
In first aid and home nursing, blood
grouping, child welfare, public duty
and training of the St. John Cadets
in secondary schools. All of these
services are given voluntarily aud
without remuneration.
The work of the St. John Am-
bulance, is financed solely by public
subscription and the 1950 atinnal
appeal for funds will be ctntduefed
in ntar'lo from February 6 to 25.

grocer. "I sent my son for two
pounds of dates, and lie brought
home only a pound and a half,"
" Madain," replied the grocer,
"trey scales are accurate. liave you
weighed your son?"
Wife: "Did you get any ap-

Actor: "Yes. It sounded like a
