The need is urgent. The Reserve is being orâ€" ganized by the Ontario Division of the Red Cross to meet any emergency of epidemic or disaster. Its purpose is to provide training for women who will work voluntarily under «+professional direction in their homes or wherever necessary. This Emergency Reserve will function directly under the Civilian Defence Committee where such exists, otherâ€" wise under the local Medical Officer of Health. Those who have already enâ€" rolled for C.DC. Medical Services, and have not been assigned to a Pirst Aid Post, are urged to enroll for this home service. The Emergency Nursing Reserve will consist of two groups. Group 1 will comprise graduate nurses who are willing to serve in the event of an emergency or epidemic. The second group will comprise women who have taken home nursing training under direction of either the Red Cross cr the St. John Ambulance Association, or who are willing to uncertake this training at once. Both groups will be given special courses in war emergâ€" encies. | __On Tuesday evening the Ladies‘ Auxâ€" iiliary of the ‘Canadian Legion once |again welcomed members and friends at the regular weekly whist drive, aftâ€" ter several weeks during. which the Legion hall underwent repairs and all events were cancelled. Under the direction of Miss Florence H. M. Emory, Associate Director of the School of Nursing, Toronto University, the Advisorvy Nursing Committee of the Ontario Division has outlined the general policy for the Emergency Reâ€" serve. Mrs. L. Stuart Lauchland, Provincial Section Leader of the Canâ€" adian Red Cross Corps, will help to organize the Reserve throughout Onâ€" tario. ‘The province is being divided into ten districts in each of which there will be a graduate nurse to give leadership and guidance. Local branches will in turn organize under! a graduate nurse in their community. ! i | ons omm mm mm s m o s es mm on on All teaching of groups will: be done by doctors, graduate nurses, dentists and dieticians. No community is too small, no Red Cross branch too remote to reâ€" spond to this call for volunteer nursâ€" ing help.
