No Convoy The ship on which the nursing sisâ€" ters travelled to South Africa, left New York in December of 1940 and was five weeks at sea, travelling in a complete pMlackout without a convoy. Miss Sharpe mentioned many amusing incidents which took place during the voyage, and told of how the nurses organized lecture classes and gave lessons in first aid to a group of American boys who were travelling to South Africa as volâ€" unteer ambulance drivers. Embarking at Capetown, which the speaker described as combining all the beauty of an old Dutch city with that of a modern city, the group set out on journey across barren stretch of desert which took two days and three nights to accomplish. Their journey took them through Kimberley, Mafeâ€" king, Johannesburg and on to Pretoria. This latter city Miss Sharpe spoke of as a beautiful model, and here she visâ€" ited a hospital where Canadian nurses were stationed. Meimbers are to be reminded that the Ladies® Guild of St. Matthew‘s Church will hold their work meeting at the home of Mrs. Maxwell, 277 Birch St. N., this Friday, October 1st, at 8 p.m. In Charge of Hospital Placed in charge of a hospital built tby the British in the Transvaal and staffed largely by Canadian nursing sisters, Miss Sharpe paid high tribute to the women of South Africa who volunteered to aid the nurses. They had splendid equipment at the centre, she said, and wonderful recreation in the form of such sports as swimming, bowling and tennis were provided for the staff. Their quarters, however, left much to be desired. Large convoys of casualties were brought into the hospital every few days, the speaker said, and at the of â€" ficial opening of the building in Sepâ€" tember, Field Marshall General Smuts expressed his appreciation of the great work the Canadian nurses were doing. Later in the year, Miss Sharpe jourâ€" neyed with a Red Cross ship from Durban to Aden, during which time she visited many historical and picâ€" turesque sites. Her vivid description of the cities, dncluding Ciaro with its ancient sphinx, kept her audience enâ€" thralled. At Suez the ship took 470 paâ€" tients and Miss Sharpe told of the hard work the 16 nurses in attendance had in taking care of all these people. On the return trip, the nursing sisâ€" ters travelled on an American transâ€" port again without convoy, which first called at the Port of Clyde. Returnâ€" ing to Canada, the vessel narrowly esâ€" caped attack by submarines. On reachâ€" ing her own country, Miss Sharpe spoke of the wonderful feeling of safety she experienced. "No sacrifice is too great in protecting Canada," she said in conâ€" eclusion. The speaker was thanked by Miss G. Johnston and the various representaâ€" tives, who also expressed their appreâ€" ciation to the executive in charge of the meeting. Morning Sesssion Routine reports were read and busiâ€" ness transacted at the morning sesâ€" sion of the annual meeting and lunchâ€" eon was hekd at Old Pine Manor. Instead of their usual meeting on Friday, September 24th, the Brownâ€" ies of the 46 LL.O.D.E. Brownie Pack held a weiner roast. The Brownies met at S8t. Matthew‘s Church at 6 o‘clock and proceeded to the rocks which was to be the scene of this rare treat. . . .In spite of the fact the distance was short the Brownâ€" ies were glad to get to their destinâ€" ation and put down their bags and haversacks ‘but they found there was to be no resting because wood had to be found for a fire and also long sticks to toast their weiners on. . : In spite of the fact that one or two unfortunate Brownies dropped their weiner‘s into the fire, everyone had a merry time. ...
