Percy Crawford Gave Warning I Percy E. `Crawford, with his four-1 year-old daughter, was out in one of ; the shanties and about 2 p.m. thci child wanted to go home, and seeing. that the Wind was getting st1'onge1`,i Mr. Crawford decided that the ice: might not be too strnog, as he had? noticed a crack in the ice on Sunday,` so left for shore, just in the nick ofj time, as he had to jump 21 two-foot ` stretch of water before landing. 'l`hc.f gap widened and Mr. Crawford hur ,` red to warn other shermen. He! saw the three Oro Station men out; on a. oe of ice and securing a small rowboat, with Dave Lipp and W. E.

Blair congratulated the organization on the successful year, particularly the n. ancial standing, when councils and other bodies are having such a time to balance their accounts. His wor- ship said he was particularly struck with the number of free visits made, 1,700, during the year, compared with only 248 in 1933. It showed that there are more people in Barrie un- able to pay for the services of a nurse. It further showed that if Barrie did not have the services of the nurse, the town and, county would have a much larger amount to `pay for hospitalization. The service rendered by the V.O_.N., his worship felt, was of inestimable help to the town and he wished to congratulate the V.O.N. organization. ` l\/[re D T4` T\Jnr-T.Ln-on -=nnw:f;n'v, LIIE V-U-.V.

Reports of the year's work of the V.0.N. in Barrie were encouraging and showed increased demands on the time of the nurse. Altogether a total of 2,778 visits were made dur- -ing the year, compared with 2,503 in 11933, an increase of 275. Of these `some 1,700 were free visits.
