PAGE SIX + THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE * MONDAY, AUGUST 30, 1840 Oshawa St. John Ambulance Group Wins Praise From Lady Mountbatten Six Oshawa women, members of the St. John Ambulance Corps, will long remember the thrill of meet- ing Earl and Countess Louis Mount- batten, who officially opened the Canadian National Exhibition on Friday. Those who attended were Miss Elizabeth Pitt, of the Oshawa Y.W.C.AA. and Officer Commanding the Guard of Honor, Mrs. Orville Magee, Mrs, Lawrence Beal, Mrs. Jack Pickup, Miss Eva Wotten, and Miss Lorna Galloway. All were high in praise of the handsome Earl Mountbatten and Bis gracious and lovely lady 'Count- ess Mountbatten brought greetings to the members of the guard of honor, all of whom had served overseas in the last war, from those with whom they had worked. To their grateful thanks she added her own, and her modest sincerity won the hearts of all who heard her. She was dressed in the grey uni- form of the Order of St. John. Lady Mountbatten shook hands with all the members of the St. John Ambulance Corps, and particularly congratulated the Oshawa group on its appearance and efficiency. The praise was well-deserved, for the Oshawa girls have indeed worked hard behind the scenes in Oshawa. During the day they refused to sit dawn before the review, for fear of creasing their uniforms, and they were on their feet almost constantly until 7.39 p.m. Among those who were introduced to the Oshawa Corps, and who complimented them on their smart appearance, were the Hon. G. D. Conant, and Mrs. Conant, who is an officer in the Order of St. John; Mrs. Thomas Gilmour, Superintend- ent in Chief of the St. John Am- _ bulance Corps during the last war, and now on reserve; Miss Margaret McLaren, the present Superintend- ent in Chief at Ottawa; Dr. Taylor, surgeon to Lord Mountbatten, and Mrs. Taylor, who had stayed at the Y.W.CA. during a flying visit to Oshawa. Miss Pitt, who was O.C. of the Guard of Honor for Earl and Countess Mountbatten, received the District Officer's Crown, which is equivalent to a Colonel's crown in the army. The Oshawa Corps was on duty in the 8t. John Ambulance tent, ministering to those who were over- come with the heat or who present- ed blistered feet from too muchshot pavement in scanty sandals. In the tent were 12 beds, six for women and six for men, Of the 93 patients attended by the Oshawa girls be- tween the hours of 3 pm. and 7.30 p.m, most were women suffering from heat prostration or blistered feet, Their favourite patient of the day was a little old lady of 77, who had fallen and was brought in for treatment. She apparently loved the attention lavished on her by the girls and they pronounced her "very sweet". Of the men patents, most of these included young fellows who had partaken not wisely, but too well, of the many tasty tidbits of- fered at the Ex. combined with the tummy-turning "thrillers". All in all it was unanimously agreed that the whole day was an experience long to be remembered and treasured, especially the gra- cious smiles and words, and the sin- cere interest of Countess Mount- batten in their work. When final- ly, their day ended, and former thoughts of "doing" the midway dismissed for obvious reasons, their last impression was of a very hu- man and interested Earl Mountbat- ten, craning his neck to take in the sights of the midway. Nuptials Are Held For Audrey Souter The chapel of St. Andrew's Uni- ted Church was the setting for a wedding of interest at 2:30 o'clock Saturday afternoon, when Miss Audrey Muriel Souter, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John W.
