THE REV. T. C. ELSDON.

As St. J ohn Baptist's Day fell on a Saturday arrangements had been made for holding the Anniversary Service and SERVICE. General Assembly on Monday, 26th June. On 24th June, the Authorities announced that the funeral of Field-Marshal Sir H enry Wilson would take place on the 26th in St. Paul's Cathedral. As many members of the Order wished to be present at the CathEdral and the funeral service was likely to be lengthy a notice was immediately posted to all members and associates who had notified their intention to be present at the Anniversary Service and General Assembly informin~ them that the ervice and Assembly had been postponed. The Council subsequently decided not to hold them during 1922. ANNIVERSARY

Awards for gallantry in saving or a ttem pting to save life on land have been made by the Chapter-General to the AWARDS. following persons, who endangered their own lives on behalf of their fellows :L IFE-SAVINC

To Alfred Hewitt, Colliery Examiner, Wainfelin, Pontypool, a Bronze Medal. On loth December, 1921, \ViUiam \Vebb was engaged at work in a pit cage at Tirpentwys Colliery when he accidentally feU seventy-two yards on to a cage lower down. John Steadman descended another shaft and made his way to the top of the cage, where \Villiam \\'ebb was lying entangled in the guide ropes. He called for help to extricate 'Webb, and Alfred Hewitt, a member of the St. John Ambulance Brigade, although ignorant of pitmen's work, responded to the call, and climbed to the top of the cage. \Vebb weighed about 14 stone, and Hewitt, although unprotected in any way, had to work under water streaming down the shaft, kno'wing that the slightest slip meant a fall of 170 yards to the bottom. After Webb, who was dead, had been freed from the guide ropes, he was placed on the roof of the cage and there held by the two rescuers, assisted by another workn1an, and slowly raised to the surface.

To Alexander Neal, Chief Officer, H .M. Coastguar ds, Brixham, a Bronze Medal. On 4th May, 1922, Edward Lamswood, aged fourteen, descended the cliff at Brixham at a point where it is about 180 feet high, in search of gulls' eggs. On reaching a ledge about 30 feet from the base, he found himself in a position from which he was unable to go dovvn or climb back. An attempt was made to rescue him from the sea by a boat, but this was found to be impossible. The coastguards then lowered a cliff ladder to Lamswood, who began to ascend it. \ Vhen he had gone a few feet . however, his nerve failed him; he managed to gain temporary refuge on a narrow ledge of rock, but out of reach of the ladder when it swung clear. Chief Officer Teal

then made a perilous descent of ISO feet, fastened . a life line round the boy's shoulders, and assist.ed him t.o the top of the cliff. While effecting t.he. rescue Chief Officer Neal was repeatedly struck by falling stones, and although weanng a h~lmet, on reaching t.he top was found to be suliering from concussion, which necesslt.at.ed his confinement to bed for several days.

To Michael Joseph Connor, Probationary Constable; David Sinclair Thain, Motor Body Builder; and Alfred James Ralston Quin, Collector, all of Sydney, New South Wales, Certi1icate of Honour. On 12th 1\lay, I9:22, as a passenger train was slowing down on passing t.hrough Summer Hill Railway Station, New South Wales, Phcebe :'Iarch (age fourteen), a passenger who had apparently boarded t.he wrong train, jumped .on ~o th? pern~anent way where she lay stunned. }\Iichael Joseph Connor, wlth Davld Sll1clalr Thall1 and Alfred James Ralston Quin, all travelling on t.he same train, observed the occurrence and jumped after her. They were just i~ tin:~e to. lift her clear of the lin~ before a fast passenger train travelling in the OppOSlt~ dlrectIon, passed the.spot. 1\11 s illarch, who was found to be suffering from conCUSSIon and severe lacerations to the face and left arm, was removed to the hospital on a stretcher.

To Acting Police Sergeant Charles Saunders Alien, No. 43" D," City of London Police, a Bronze Medal. On 17th J\Iay, 1922, a police constable saw a dense cloud of ammonia gas iSSUIng through the open wirework panels of the double doors (which were secured by a bar and padlock) leading to a disused refrigerating chamber at Cust.om Il ouse ~uay, Lower Thames Street, and heard cries for help coming from inside. The constable infom1ed Acting-Sergeant Charles Saunders Allen, who placed a wet hanclkerchi f over his mouth, and with the assistance of the constable (who also cover d hi mouth) forced open the doors with a plank. The gas ·was coming out in such volume that it was impossible to open the padlock with the key. Sergeant Allen entered the chamber, and seeing Joseph Johnson, a labourer, lying unconscious on the floor, carried him to to the street. Sergeant Allen displayed great bravery in el1ecting the rescue of the man, being forced several times to cease his attempts. He was slightly affected by the fumes, but remained on duty. Johnson was conveyed to Guy's llospital, from which he was subsequently discharged, but died on 20th :'.ray from pnellmonia.

To Clifford Stanley Hawkes, Railway Sheet Examiner, and \Villiam G. C. Davis, Railway Goods Checker, both of Gloucester, Certificates of Honour. On 23rd May, I922, \Y'. G. Pearce, a gateman at a level crossing on the :'Ifidland Railway in Gloucester, was opening the heavy gat.es for the passage of an express train. One of them rebounded from the road stops, knocking him across the railway line, where he lay unconscious. Clifford Stanley IIawkes and \Villiam G. C. Davis (members of the St. John Ambulance Brigade), who had seen the accident, forced their way through the gates and succeeded in removing Pearce just as t.he express passed the spot. They then attended to his injuries and conveyed him to his home. Their prompt action was undoubtedly the means of saving Pearce's life.

To Corps Supt. Andrew John MacWilliam, Di·visional Supt.

numerous casualties were inflicted not only on combatants, but also the civil population. During the period mentioned they were constantly exposed to machine-gun and rifle fire and the risk of unexploded mines and falling burning buildings, but fortunately only two members of the Brigade ·were wounded. The cases requiring first aid treatment included numerous bullet wounds, many cases of burning, premature births and removals to the maternity hospital; guests in several hotels who had been shut up for five or six days were rescued when the hotels took fire, and many poor people in streets adjoining the fighting were starving until assisted by members of the Brigade.

In addition to receiving the Bronze Life Saving Medal Corps Supt. J. MacWilliam was selected an Honorary Serving Brother of the Order. To Frederick Vickers, Boilermaker, of Lincoln, a Bronze Medal.

On 15th September, 1922, a man working in a boiler at the Lincoln Corporation Electricity \Yorks Power Station, collapsed owing to the presence of foul air. Another workman who endeavoured to rescue him also collapsed. Frederick Vickers, a member of the St. John Amlmlance Brigade, then entered the boiler and after great exertion succeeded in removing both men. Yickers had himself to be assisted from the boiler as he also was being overcome by the foul air. All three men were sent home, and a few clays later were able to return to work.

To Alexander McBean, Tramcar Conductor, of Wallsend, a Bronze Medal. On 7th October, I922, Lovell :'IIcGuire, age two, ran in front of an approaching tramcar in High Street \Yest. \\·allsend. Alexander McBean, seeing the child's danger, rushed in front of the car and pushed him off the track. He was, however, himself knocked dO"'n and carried by the lifeguard of the car for about thirty yards before it was brought to a standstill. \Vhen extricated, he was found to be suffering from injuries t.o the head, hands and leg, rendering him incapable of following his . occupation for some time.

Interest in ambulance work continues to increase. During the year ended 30th September, 1922, the Association ASSOCIATION. has issued 6,124 medallions, 20,289 labels and 2,594 pendants. There is an increase in the number of medallions and pendants issued but the number of labels is slightly smaller. The total number of certificates issued to 30th September, 1922, ]s 1,520,313, and during the year as follows :ST.

First Aid classes have again been held at Aldershot by the Corps of Military Police and the Army School of Physical Training, and among the units of the Army of Occupation on the Rhine. The Order's Inter-Railway challenge shield competed for annually by the ambulance teams of the railways of England and Wales was won at the final competition on 11th May, 1922, by the Alexandra (~ ewport and South Wales) Docks and Railway. This railway now shares with the Great Eastern Railway the distinction of having won the shield on five occasions since the inception of the competition in r897. The Invalid Transport Corps carried 7,325 patients during the year. The Association issues a separate report which can be obtained on application to St. John's Gate.

Charles Cotton, O.B.E., F.R.C.P.E., as Commissioner of No. VIII. District on completion of 32 years' service. Colonel E. Cureton, V.D., M.B., as Commissioner of No. VII. District, on completion of 27 years' service. F. Sprawson as Assistant Commissioner of No. II. District, on completion, of 34 years' service. His relations with these officers have always been of the most friendly nature, and he is deeply indebted to them for the loyal support they afforded him while they were in office. They remain honorary members of the Chief Commissioner's Staff. During the year over 160,000 cases have been treated by the Brigade on public and other occasions, and increasing demands are being made by local and other authorities for its services. The divisional returns show an enormous amount of valuable work voluntarily undertaken by Brigade members, the majority of whom are dependent on the wages they earn for their livelihood, and who devote time and money to the performance of their duties. A large number of corps and divisions now possess motor ambulances. Many divisions have also undertaken to assist the Joint Council of the Order of . t. John and the British Red Cross Society under its Home Service Ambulance Scheme. 207 members of the Brigade have been enrolled in the Royal); aval Auxiliary ick Berth Reserve, making a total strength of 1,113. Over 800 attended a week's course of training on a man of war or at a naval hospita1. 68 have been awarded the 1 aval Long Service Medal, making a total of 538 who have received this award. This reserve is now practically complete, and is very popular with the Brigade. Keen interest continues to be shown in competitions. Last year the " Dewar}} Shield was won by the \iVolverhampton Division, the (( ymons-Eccles}} Challenge Cup by the Sittingbourne Division, and the" Perrott }} Shield by the Headquarters (Dublin) Nursing Division. The prizes were distributed by H.R.H. the Duke of Connaught. Inspections have been carried out by the Chief Commissioner during the year at Leicester, Birmingham, Ipswich, and Newport (Priory for Wales), and by the Deputy Chief Commissioner at London, Newcastleon-Tyne, Darlington, Shrewsbury, Brighton and Plymouth, and at the o. V. District Camp at Blackpool. The death of IS officers is reported with regret. The general conditions and efficiency of the Brigade are satisfactory. The scheme for forming cadet divisions of boys and girls attached to ambulanc.e and nursing divisions is making good progress, and in many places umts have been formed. The question of the collection of funds for th~ upkeep of J?rigade d~visions has been definitely settled by a resolutlOn of the J omt Council of the Order of St. John and British ~ed Cross Society empowering each body to make appeals to the public Irrespective of the Joint Council. The Chief Commissioner tenders his grateful thanks to all the officers of ~he Brigade and the members of ambulance and nursing divisions for theIr loyal and devoted ser vice.

The Chief Commissioner reports that during the year 30 ambulance and L1- nursing divisions have been formed, BRI CADE making a total of 876 ambulance and 500 nursing divisions. . 50 ambulance and 49 nursing divisions have been disbanded. Ninety per cent. of these were formed for service during the late \-var and their activities ceased soon after its termination. The present effective personnel is : -

This shows a decrease of 952 on the strength of the Brigade during the year, whi.ch is attributable to the large number of persons who joined for war serVIce, and to the acute unemployment, causing many members to remove to districts where the Brigade is not represented. The following officers have been appointed during the year by H.R.H. the Grand Prior : Assistant Commissioner A. Vernon Davies, O.B.E., M.B., to be Commissioner of No. VIII. District, vice Dr. C.

The Chief Commissioner, Major-General Sir R. H avelock Charles, G.C.V.O., K.C.S.!', M.D., F.R.C.S.I., reports : AMBULANCE There are encouraging signs that the Brigade Overseas BR I CADE generally speaking is slowly but surely recovering from the OVE RSEAS. . d'Isorgamsa . t IOn ' consequen t upon th e Ia t e W ar. very senous A return to normal conditions in the Dominions Overseas is naturally a much slower proce s than in this country, owing to the wi~elf differing conditions, no two being alike. In the sparsely populated dlstncts, much difficulty is being experienced in making up losses i.n membership, b?th men and women, with the result that units in many Instances are findmg it very difficult to meet an the calls made for ambulance assistance, which are always increasing. I have every confidence, however, that with tile nne nucleus of loyal and energetic workers, which still exists in each particular locality, success is certain. The formation of a Ce~~ral Council of the Ambulance Department of the Order for each DorrunlOn is, I am convinced, a necessity, in order that there may be a Central Autbority for co-ordinating the work of the Ambulance Department, and with which Government Departments can communicate--the two apparently separate organisations, i.e., Centres of the St. John Ambulance A ociation and Di tricts of the St. John Ambulance Brigade Overseas, under distinct head , is not understood and in some cases gives rise to complication. In India a Central Council has been in existence for some tin1e, but with a moving European population such as exists, there are difficulties. The ituation is, I understand, being carefully considered. A Central Council \Va formed for ew Zealand some time ago, but with what results so far as the Brigade Overseas is concerned, I have not heard. A similar governing body \Va formed both for Au tralia and South Africa. The powers a Central Council should possess, suggested by the Draft Rules submitted, were not, in my opinion, sufficiently comprehensive, and I therefore recommended an extension by the grant of a " Constitution" drawn up in accordance with the tatutes and Bye-Laws of the Order, clearly etting out the powers of the Governing Body. A Draft was prepared and provisionally approved by Chapter~General. As a preliminary, I supplied the uperior Officer of the Brigade Overseas, Sou tIl Africa, with copies for consideration and report, but as the distances separating the various District Headquarters are great, and the opportunities for meeting and discussion very limited, some time must necessarily elap e before the re ult is known. I \\Till now refer briefly to the work in each Dominion : AUSTRALIA: N e'le' olfth TVales District. ew Divisions have been formed and under the able guidance of the Commissioner, Dr. T . torie Dixson, and his staff, good progress has been made. Their Excellencies, the GovernorGeneral and Lady Forster, have very kindly taken great interest in the work and given it most valuable a sistance, for which I beg to tender Their Excellencies my most cordial thanks. Inspections, Competitions and Public Duties have been wen supported. South Australia District. The membership remains steady.

keeping up the knowledge gained, with the result that very few ~ecruits can be obtained.

The Tur~ing unit~ are active and doing good service. GIBRALTAR DISTRICT. We are indebted to Colonel Goddard for starting work in the Gibraltar District, and it has been taken up by the Police with most gratifying result. On aturday, October 29th, 1921, H.R.H. The Prince of \Vales, when at GibrClltar, was gracion ly plea (',1 to inspect a detachment of the Police Divi ion, and His H.oval Hirrhne s \vas kind enough to express bis pleasure that a unit of the Brigade Oversea bad been formed for the first time at Gibraltar. HONG KONG DISTRICT. The results of the \Var have seriou Iv affected the work of the Brigade Overseas in this District, and in con eqnencc the numerical strength has materially decrea ed. :\Iembers on the strength are, however, enthusiastic and work i proceeding sati factorily-. Their services are greatly valued by the public and e pecially by the Chinese. Sir Eric Stewart Taylor, Bart, M.D., kindly inspected the Divisions during the year and this evidence of his interest in the movement is of great value. I NDIA . Owing to the energy of Dr. C. C. Chatterjee the work has been well taken up by medical and art students in Calcutta, and extensions have been made to the coal mines. This is really what has been required in India. If we can grip the rising generation among the students, there i no question that the Brigade will continue in India trong and flourishing. Local reports received show that there is much activity, especially in NO.2 District (Calcutta) and NO . 3 District (Bombay). In th e latter District the calls for public duty and invalid removals have been very numerous but have as heretofore always received a ready response. This work is greatly appreciated by the public. CANADA . This District is undergoing very careful re-organisation, the

result of which will, I hope, soon become apparent . Owing to the very large number of men volunteering for servic~ during .theJat~ War, many divisions practically ceased to e'\ist and theIr reSUSCItatIOn IS a matter of time. everal ursing Divisions were formed as a result of the \Var, the members of which, generally speaking, have now from various reasons, lost int rest in the work and the divisions have been disbanded. EW ZEAL\' -D. The Brigade Overseas has continued to do excellent \york during the past year. An increased interest is being manifested. a.nd there is promise of renewed activity. A large number of cases reqmrmg First Aid assistance have been dealt with in the Factories and \Yorkshops. In one locality alone tlJesc numbered 376. Public Duty has been performed regularly and the removal of invalid has received special attention. There is evidence that this work is getting better known to and appreciated by the general public. Members of ursing Units are also asi-.;ting in nursing privately, with good results. Eccent appointments made by the Chapter-General of the Order as Hon. CITing Brother and i ters have given general atisfaction and arc a decided stimulus. Competition have been held in the various Di tricts and well supported. ,~OCTII ~\Fmc.\. The Brigade Overseas within South Africa has been undergoing re-organisation with most satisfac~ory resl~lts, especially in the Cape of Good Hope and outh Afncan Railways and Harhour.:; Di'-)trict.

The Committee is glad to state that the Warden whose three years ' agreement expired in 1922 has renewed it for another period of three years. He was in this country on lea.ve in the latter half .of 1922. and the Committee had the advantage of hIS presence at two of ItS meetmgs. The ub-Warden has also expressed his readiness to work on for another three years in the Hospital and the Committe~ feels that in th~ experien~e and skill of these two surgeons the reputa tlOn of the HospItal rests m safe hands. The ub-Warden was left in charge during the absence on leave of the Warden and he had the assistance first of Dr. Shelley and then of Dr. Torrance for the greater part of the time. It was, however, considered advi able to reduce the beds temporarily to twenty-two, and this accounts for the mall decrease in the number of in-patients and operations as compared with 1921. On the other hand there is a substantial increase in the number of new out-pabcnt cases and a marked falling off in total consultations. Plans are being prepared for an annex to be erected on the site given to the Order by the Greek Patriarch of Jerusalem. The cost of building is still high in the Holy Land and it is hoped that prices will have fallen by the time the Order is prepared to proceed with the ·work. The Patriarch who had already received from the King the honour of a K.B.E., has been made an Honorary Chaplain of the Order. The Honorary ecretary has presented to the Hospital the series of portraits of the Grand Masters from Vcrtots' History of the Knights of Malta (172 ). The relations between the Hospital Staff and the Administration continue to be of a friendly character. The Committee in concluding this Report begs to tender sincere thanks to Lady \Vatson for her devoted energy in collecting £LSO for the upkeep of beds and also for her most valued work every week in superintending the Linen Room and in the making of garments for the Hospital patients. Also it would thank Miss Du Pre for her munificence in providing for the payment of temporary surgeons to take the place of the regular staff when they were absent on leave. Thanks are due to the organisers of the Exhibition of Pictures of Jerusalem for their generous donation of Iso, and to the Syria and Palestine Relief Fund for a second donation in aid of our work amounting to £177. The Commi ttee has tried to interest the Overseas Brigade and Ambulance Association in the Hospital and it is encouraging to note that help has willingly been given by New South Wales Centre, St. John Ambulance Association, Auckland N.Z. Brigade :-Wangunui Central Nursing Division and vVellington Nursing Division, Petone Central I ursing Division, and the Hong Kong Brigade. The Committee would welcome the endowment of a bed by every Dominion or Colony. Newfoundland has already done so, a lead worthy of being emulated. Finally, the Committee would expres to the Warden and his staff, both British and Palestinian, its appreciation of the work that has been

The new out-patient room sanctioned by the Order was begun in March and completed by the middle of July when HOSPITAL, it was at once brought into use without any formal opening. J E RUSAL~M . It has already given the greatest satisfaction to the staff who can now control the large number of out-patients much more satisfactorily. Visiting surgeons of other countries have given unqualified praise to the new room which is in every way a notable addition to the Hospital building. In the Report for 1921 it was stated that an the paid staff of the Hospital who are Christians will in future be members of the Order, admitted thereto as Serving Brothers and Serving Sisters, but ceasing to be such on leaving the Staff, and again that ({ the Superintendent of the Hospital is to be called Warden, the second surgeon Sub-vVarden, and the third title is Registrar.)} This change in the status of the Staff was made on the occasion of a public ceremony in the Hospital on June 26th, when Lieut.-Colonel J. T. Woolrych Perowne, a Knight of Grace and Honorary Secretary of the Hospital Committee, acting under commission from His Royal Highness the Grand Prior, first of all admitted the British staff as Serving Brothers and Sisters and two of the Syrian staff as Honorary of that grade and then proceeded to invest the \Varden and Sub-Warden with the insignia, mantle and cap of their newly created office. In the absence of the High Commissioner in England, the Acting High Commissioner (Lieut.-Colonel Sir Wyndham Deedes, C.M.G., D.S.O.) was present in the place of honour.

The molor ambulance transport service continues to make excellent progrc')s, and thc steady increasc in the num,?er of patients carried shows that its value is being more keenly reahsed. The demand for the lablihment of new tations is increa ing, and every effort is being made to meet it. During the year the cars carried I,956 cases and covered 36,899 miles. 31 workmen's lodges have become regular subscribers and aO're ment have been entered into between the Priory and 43 collier~ companies. The Miner's \VeHare Fund made a grant of £2,000 in aid of the service. The residents of Tenby and neighbourhood continue their interest in the Priory's hospital for ex- en'ice men situated in the town. The t. John" rthopredic Clinic at wansea completed its first year in October. to thc entire satisfaction of the :\Iinistry of Pensions, 24,975 ca es being treated during the year. X egotiations are in progress for the e tabli ' hment of similar clinics in other industrial areas. The medical comfort depots are proving a boon in the districts in which they are slablished, an~ are well uppo~ted ~y the members of the nursing divi ions of thc Bngadc, who aSSl t 111 theIr managem:nt. The Priory has taken over a convalescent home at Llandrmdod \Vells, where spa treatment for ex-service men will be provided under the auspices of the Ministry of Pensions. A similar institution has been opened for civil patients, where board, treatment and medical attendance can be obtaincd at a moderate charge. A grant from the United ervices Fund has made possible the establishment in Cardiff of a hostel and club for trained nurses and members of V.A.D's who served with the Forces. The facilities afforded are much appreciated. . . . .

The most interesting of the additions to the Library (and a separate room has now been installed as a Museum of relics of the Order) are two leaden Seals, or Bullae, brough.t by the do~or from Italy and now placed with the Bulla of the Master Gann ~e Montalgu (A.D. 1208), which was described in the Report for 1918, and IS numbered I on the frontispiece. Unfortunately, these B~~e have also become deta hed from the documents of which they ongmally served to seal the cords; or perhaps the documents ha:re fallen a prey to semi-tropi.ca insect life, and voracious bookworms whIch have ever done destruc~lOn among the Order's archives at Malta, S? that the leaden se~ls alone survIV~d their appetite. It may: ~e a~ded, :WIth .referen~e to thIS Bulla ~f Gann de Montaigu, that Pauli, m Ius Codlce DiplomatIco of the Order, ~ 1733, records the existence of a similar Bulla at Malta; but Le Roulx, m 1887, stat s that" this Bulla is now lost." o. 2 is that of the Grandmaster Cardinal Loubenx de Verdala (15 81 1595). The Cardinal is represented alone, kneeling and holding a rosary before the cra s of Jerusalem with double traverses, t~e letters .Alpha and Omega alongside. On the reverse is the conventIonal deVIce ~or the Holy epulchre, namely a canopy of three small cupo~as, from ",:hlCh hangs a lamp, above a draped figure recumbent on a bIer; the elghtpointrc1 cros of ~Ialta is seen above the head; at the other end th~re swings a censer. The legend runs: Hugo ~e Loubenx Ver~ala Magis: Hospitalis Hierusal m. But the lead ?f t.hI~ B~lla has penshed badly from oxidisation, and some of the lettenng IS illegIble. On the earliest known Bullae of the Order, the figure is wrapped in s\vathing-bands, and so appears in that of the year 1208 here d~picted ; lat r. tIle figure is merely draped. Some have thought .that a SIck man is represented, such as would ~e ~ended by the ~ospltallers, but the swinging censer seems clearly to mdicate one of the ntes due to the dead. And there appears a halo around the head of the recumbent figure on the Order's seals dating from the year 1306, but not on tho e of the two previous centuries. This ha~o may hav~ first arise.n, as some have though t, because the engraver mIstook the lmes of a pillow for a halo; but the fact that a similar figure. under a canopy, lamp and censer, appears on seals of the ancient Patriarchs of Jerusalem (e .g. that. o~ William, A.D. 1262-1267) surrounded by the legend Sepulcrum Chnst~ Vivelllis, would go to prove that the presence of the dead body ~as merely a conventional means of indicating the Holy Sepulchre, whIch would have been insufficiently indicated by the canopy and censor alone. An early document now preserved in the 1 ational Library of France records that a Chapter-General of the Order, held at Acre in the year 1278, officially laid down that the reverse of the Order's Bulla should be " un cors d'ome-mort d'avant, devant un tabernacle"; this would be previous to the introduction of the halo in 1306, and may indicate that the figure was at first merely a dead-body to symbolise a tomb, but later, with the halo came to symbolise Christ. The contention of some critics that the device records either the duty of this Hospitaller Order to tend the sick, or the dead, seems precluded, not only by the later introduction of the halo, but by the above-cited use of the same symbol by the Pat riarchs of Jerusalem itself. In fact, this latter consideration leads to the coneIu ion that the device on the Order' seals had 110 distinctive reference LIBRARY.

to the Order as such, but merely indicated the Order's original Headquarters, namely the city of Jerusalem. . Our third Bulla (dating from the fourteenth century) IS the conventual or capitular seal of the Order, as distinguished from the seal of the Grandmaster alone. The earliest statutes of the Order (those of raster Alfonso of Portugal, dated 1194) laid down that there should be two kinds of official seals, that of the Master when acting without Chapter (often impressed on wax, of which few remain to-day), and the convent~al or capitular seal for use on documents where the Master acted along wIth 'Chapter, sealed in lead. But the statutory directions governing the ~se .of these two different seals are not precise enough to convey the defimte purpose of each. This capitular seal depicts the Grandmaster accompanied by six (sometimes, there are eight) Bailiffs of the Order, r pre entmg the different Langues, all kneeling in adoration before the cros~ of J eru alem with double traverses, its ten points slightly expanded in the manner -of the later (( Maltese" cross, issuant from a little mound. Beneath the cross there is seen a device re embbng an uncial ~I, and 'alongside the Star of Bethlehem, with the Greek letters Alpha and Omega on either side of the cross. This uncial M has a quaint origin. Like many another ancient device, it reached its conventional resemblance to a writt n .JI through the ignorance of an engraver, \ovho did not know that he was intended to .depict the skull of the first man Adam-an allusion again to tIle Church ·of the Holy Sepulchre, under whose comprehen i'Ve cupolas tradition had gathered the greater part of the Holy Places of Palestine, from the tomb ·of Adam and Eve to the site of the rucifixion. onder, in his (( Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem," 1897, relates that on the steep rock of Calvary, a low-arched chapel covered the altar; beneath was the cavern of Golgotha holding the skull of Adam; a strange legend had fixed itself to the site, telling how Seth had brought a tree-seed from the Garden of Eden, which, placed in the mouth of Adam's skull, grew into a tr on Lebanon, where it escaped the Deluge, and was cut down by King ' olomon for the building of the bridge at the Temple of J erusalem, later to yield the beams ·of which the Redeemer's Cross was made. The device of Adam's skull ceased to be used on the seals while the Order was at Rhodes, and does not appear later than the year 1500, having been introduced under Grandmaster William de Villaret (13 00 1306 ). The word Bulla (in Latin, a bubble or round mass) d scriptive ·of such leaden seals, is of course the origin of the name given to Papal Bulls, sealed with leaden Bullae, whereas the shorter decrees known as Papal Briefs were sealed in wax with the signet-ring, but from the thirteenth century with the so-called Fisherman's Ring on which St. Peter is depicted fishing from a boat with the papal name beneath.

The damage done is not irreparable, and some patchmg was carn~d out by the Italians in 1919; but now the Angora Government are. m command, and furthcT repairs must await their consent.

TIlE ommillee of the Ophthalmic Hospital has the honour to submit its Tbirty-First Report [or tbe information of His Royal Highness the rand Prior, the Chapter-General a nd the subscribers. The ne\V out-patient room anctioned by the Order was begun in March and completed by the middle of July when it was at once brought into u se without any formal opening. It has already given the greatest sat isfaction to the staff who can now control the large number of outpatient!:> much more 'atisfactorily. Vis iting urgeons of other countries h ave g iv en unqualified pra ise to the new room which is in every way a notable addition to the Ho pital building. In th e Report for 1921 it was stated that" all the paid staff of the Ho sp ital who are Christians will in future be members of the Order, admitted thereto a erving Bruther a nd Serving Sisters, but ceasing to be such on leaving the Staff, " and again that" the Superintendent of the Hosp ital i to b e called Warden, the second surgeon Sub-Warden, and a third title is Regi tra r." This change in the status of the Staff wa m ade the occa ~ ion of a public ceremony in the Hospital on June 26th, when Li eut.-Colonel J. T. Woolrych Perowne, a Knight of Grace and Hon. ecretary of the Ho pital Committee, acting under commission from Hi s Roy a l Highne the Grand Prior, first of all admitted the British staff as erving Brothers and Sisters and t\VO of the Syrian ~taff a Honorary of that grade and then proceeded to invest the Warden and Sub-Warden with the insignia, mantle and cap of their newly created offices. There were present in the new out-patient dispensary, which the contractor had managed to get sufficiently ready for the ceremony, about 200 guests. The pictures of H. M. the King, the Grand Prior, H . M. Queen Victoria and H. M. King Edward VII., which had been unveiled last year, adorned the walls and the room wa gay with flags and flowers. In the absence of the High Commis ioner in England, the Acting High Commi ioner (Lieut.-Colonel Sir Wyndham Deede ,C.l\I.G., n.s.a.) was pre ent in the place of honour. Tbere were aloin the room, Lady Samuel, the Orthodox Patriarch, the Anglican Bi hop, representatives of the Armenian Patriarch, General Grant, R. E., Colonel and Mrs . Heron, Dr. Hender on, Mr. A. F. Clark, Mr. Shelley, Lady Watson, Mrs. Deedes and the leading members of the British official and comme rcial community and many others .

OPHTHALMIC

REPORT.

PITAL.

When all had assE)mbled the Pre iding Knight (Lieut.-Colonel J. T. Woolrych Perowne) called on Frere Chaplain Archdeacon Waddy, who was vested in cassock and surplice, to open the proceeding with prayer. The Presiding Knight then aid he had had an audience with H. R. H. the Grand Prior before he left England and he had it in command to tell those present there how deeply intere ted H. R. H. was and always had been and always would be in the work of the Order in J eru alem. The Grand Prior added that he knew, too, how good that work had been in the past and that he felt confident that the high standard of the Hospital would be maintained in the future. The Presiding Knight then brieRy stated the object of the meeting, which was the admission of certain members of the taff to the grade of Serving Brother and erving iter and the investiture of the Warden and Sub-Warden with their insignia and mantles of office. The occasion was unique becau e thi was the first time any member of the Hospital ' taff had been admitted to a grade of the Order \yhile the office of ,Varden and ub- vVarden and Regi~trar were new creations. In order that those pre ent might kno\\' that he had authority to act he called on Frere Chaplain to read his ommi ~ion from the Grand Prior. This done, he proceeded to admit- in the form used at St. John's Gate- Lieut.-Colonel J. c. trathcarn, o. B. E., and Captain C. R. B. Eyre as Serving Brother., and Mary, iter Dight, and Florence, Sister Leman, R. R. C., as erving Si ter ; Jacob I ubei~y as Hon. Ser\'ing Brother and Mrs. Malakeh KUl11ri as Hon. erving Sister - these t\VO not being British subjects. He next inn: ted with insignia, mantle and cap Captain C. R. B. Eyre as first u b-"\ arden of the Hospital and then Lieut. -Colonel J. C. ~trathearn, o. B. E., a first Warden of the Hospital. * In each case the Presiding Knight addre sed a few words to the recipients, reciting their Juties and exhorting them to devote themselves to the ervice of the Order in the t.rue spirit of chivalry. The Acting High Commis ioner then made a short speech in which he compared the Hospital to a beacon set on a bill and wished it God-speed in its work. The Chaplain concluded the official part of the ceremony with prayers. Afterwards tea was en'ed to the guests in th Mulberry Tree Court. The Boy Scouts of Bi hop Gobat's School under their Scoutmaster attended and formed a Guard of Honour and gave useful help in many directions. The general opinion that found expre sion was that the whole function had been a success and that in 1ere t in the Order bad been quickened by the revival of a picturesque mediccval ceremony. The Committee is glad to state that the \Va rden who e three years' agreement expired in 1922 has renewed it for another period of three years. He was in this country on leave in the latter half of 1922 and the Committee had the advantage of his presence at two of its meetings. He has returned to his duties accompanied by his bride with the best wishes of the Committee. Tbe Sub-Warden has al 0 expressed his readiness to work on for another three years in the Hospital and the Committee feels that in the experience and skill of the e two surgeons the reputation of the Hospital rests in safe bands. It is a tribute to the staff to read in one of the monthly reports from Jerusalem that the increasing desire of the fellahin for hospital treatment is very noticeable." II

* Lielft. -Colonel Strat/lcarll

is also R egistmr p Cl/ding 'h e appointlllent or a third surgeon,

In May the report showed that among our patients were Armenian refugees who had in large numbers come to Jerusalem. The waves of world politics lap the walls of the Hospital of t.he Order of St. John. The Sub-Warden was left in charge during the absence on leave of the Warden and he had the assistance first of Dr. Shelley and then of Dr. Torrance for the greater part of the time. It was, hO\:v ever, considered advisable to reduce the beds temporarily to 22, and this accounts for a small decrease in the number of in-patients and operations as compared with 1921. On the other hand there is a substantial increase in the number of new out-patient cases and a .marked falling off in total consultations. Attention is called to these figures by the Warden in the first paragraph of his report, printed on page 7. Plans are being prepared for an annex to be erected on the site given to the Order by the Patriarch of Jerusalem. The cost of building is still high in the Holy Land and it is hoped that prices will have fallen by the time t.he Order is prepared to proceed with the work. The Patriarch who had already recei \'ed from the King the honour of a K. B. E., has been m?.de an Hon. Episcopal Chaplain of the Order. The bonus to the native staff has, as was inevitable, now become permanent in the form of increased salaries and wage. No relief can be looked for on this item of Hospital expenditure and the tendency is still in the direction of higher pay. Extra charge thi year include telephone (£12 per annum), post office box (£1 5 '.) and water which has doubled. An extra tax is le\'ied for e\'ery tap and water may cost the Hospital £50 per annum before long; it is already a monthly charge of over £3 5 . A claim for reparations made by the Order against the German Government for damage done to the Hospital during the war is now bing inve ligated on the ' pol by the Reparations Commissioner. The Warden has been in ' tructed to give him all the information pO ' ible under the circumstances. The work on the Surgeon's house in the grounds has been satisfactorily completed though the question of the staircase will have to be faced when funds admit. The value of tbe olive crop was estimated at £12 6s. 1 d., against wbich has to be ~et the cost of ploughing, £2 1 5s., and the gathering, say £1 5s., or a nett profit to the Hospital of £86 , 1d. With the money made by the disposal of the ring given last year by the Lady Mabelle Egerton two good clocks were purchased and taken out by the Hon. Secretary. Each was mounted on an oak shield with a brass plate setting forth the name of the donor and the date. A new main door has become necessary. Theold onewasquitedecayed. The cost of a new door in oak will be approximately £40 and will exhaust the balance of the amount of compensation for damage by British troops paid by the Government, as explained in the report for 1921 - the main part of the cheque for £ 167 having been expended on replacement of shutters and other woodwork. The design for the Memorial Tablet has been approved and will be executed in England. It will be despatched to Jerusalem and erected in the main courtyard of the Ho pital facing the entrance. It is hoped that it will be formally unveiled on St. John's Day at the same time that the Patriarch is invested with his Prelate's Badge. I

OPHTHALl\ILC HO SPITAL.

The Hon. Secretary has pre 'ented to the Hospital the series of prints of the Grand Ma ters from Vertot's H7StOI:)1 of the A"IIJghls of lIfal/a (1728). They will be framed and hung in a suitable plac . The relations between the Ho pital . taff and the Admini ,tration continue to be of a friendly character. The Committee in concluding thi Report begs to tender sincere thanks to Lady Watson for her devoted nergy in collecting £ 150 for the upkeep of beds and al 0 for her most valued \york every week in superintending the Linen Room and in the making of garments for the Hospital patients. . Iso it would thank Mi s Du Pre for ber munificen e in providing for the payment of temporary surgeon to take the place of the regular staff when they were ab , ent on leave, and l\Ir. J. H. t venson, M.B.E., K.C., for his continued help a Hon. Seer tary for cotland. Thanks are due to the organisers of the Exhibition of Piclure' of Jerusalem for their generous donation of £50 and to the yria and Palestine Relief Fund for a second donation in aid of our w rk am unting to £177. The Committee ha tried to interest the Over ea Brigades and f\mbulance Associatio-ns in the work of the Ho pital and it is encouraging to note that help has willingly been given by Nev.'! outh \ ales entre, Sl. John Ambulance As ociation, Auckland N. Z. Brigade, \Vanganui entral Nursing Divi ion, Wellington Nursing Division, Petone 'el!tral Nursing Division, and the Hon g Kong Brigade. The Committee would welcome the endowment of a bed by every Dominion or olony . N \\"_ foundland has already done so, a lead worthy of being emulated. Finally, the Committee would express to the \Varden and his starT, both British and Palestinian, its appreciation of the \york that ha. been done and the spirit in which it has been done in the pa!'>t and it look' forward with confidence to another year of un lackencd progress in c.tealing with the enormous amount of eye disea "e and ophthalmic suffering in the Holy Land.

REPORT.

'fhe

Warden's

Report.

In considering the Report for the year 1922 it is well to be:r i.n mil1d that one of the 'urgeons (the \Varden) wa on home leave un~g t 11e latter half of th year and although the Sub-W.arden had the serVlces of a temporary assistant, this help wa not contll1~ous. ~ence alth?ugh the returns for the first half of the year show a.n ll1crease 111 all seel1ons, tbe Ggures for the second half .are . correspo.nd1l1gly lower .than those of Tl1is. decrease wa 1I1evltable as It has been ObVlOUSd'for rsome ' t yea l..

The number of patients admitted to hospItal was 1,268. The ~p~rati ns performe0 \ e~e 2.'8.59. On classifying the new cases according to the religion of the IIld1\'ldual (from ret.urns rendered monthly to ' Haith DelJartment of the dmini tratlOn) 8,1 9 were Moslems, tl1e ec .

Of the new ca es 1,17-1- \V re blind in one eye and 460 were bl1l1d 111 bot~ .. The work in the Out-Patient Department has been greatly faclhtated by the extenion of the Hospital. huildi~1g: Th~s extension \yas .opened for work in July anel although sUl11ack1l1g 111 vanous forms o~ eqUIpment, bas abundantly justified the money expen?ed. ~n pre\'lOUS annual r port allention has bc:en drawn to the ever ll1crea ll1g number of ca es who attend to be measured for pectacles. The number of such. cases in 1919 " 'as 269, in 1920 was -1-73 in 1921 had ri en to 760. ThiS ye~r no fewer than 1,1-18 patients were so relieved. Only an ophthalmIC surgeon can fully realise the amount of work represented. by these fig-ures. 1ueh cr diL is due to the Sub-W ~rden. who .accomphshed most of thi work and for the high standard attalned 111 spite of the lack of intelligence in many of the patients . The great bulk of our work, as heretofore, is the treat~nel~t of ~ra.choma and Ophthalmia (acute conjunctivitis) with the c~mpltcatJ~ns l.ncl.dental to these eli 'ease . The pre\"alence of TrRchoma 1ll Palestine IS Indeed appalling and (apart from the uffering) the economic inefficiency must be immense. In the annual report of the Department of Health of the Government of Palestine for the year 1921, it is tated that in some districts 97 p. c. of the inhabitants are affected and in school children affected the returns sh9 \\' an average of 74 p.c. for the country a a whole. . The sea, onal epidemic of Ophthalmia was average, being 14 p. c. of the new cases as compared with 13 p. c. last year and 17 p. c. in 1920. But the presence of ulceration of the Cornea (leading to impairment or loss of vi ion) wa a complication in 822 cases, an incidence of 46 p. c. as compared with 26'5 p.c. in 1921 and 29 p.c. in 1920. This marked increase is attributable partly to the severity of the epidemic but more to the increasing readiness of the people to seek skilled aid in seriou ca es. True, om came too late but on the other hand many eyes were doubtless saved. And in thi connection the provision of a helter or hospital annexe for the accommodation and treatment of some of these

I severe and contagious cases l ' still an urgent nee I. A convenient. ile for the erection of such a building has been donated to the Order by His Beatitude the Greek Patriarch but the ridiculously high co t of building in Palestine at present act a a deterrent. The hospital equipment is till below pre-war standard. For example, the hospital bedsteads with few exception require scrapping and replacing with proper English made hospital beds. The bedstead 111 u e are mostly of the army folding type and rendered prolonged service In the war. The installation of a small plant for the upply of the electric lighl is becoming almost a necessity. Modern ho pital equipment in examination rooms, operating theatre, wards, etc. , almost invariably requires its agency. In the linen room section, thanks largely to the untiring helpfulness of Lady Watson, the stock of patient " garments, elc., is gradually approaching proper dimension And in this, as 111 many other ways, the staff owe her a debt of gratitude. From a survey of the past year it ha become JI1crea ing-ly evident that the usefulness of the institution i only limited by lhe smallness of the staff. The need was never greater, for a generation of fellahin has grown up who look to this hospital for help. (Sz"gnedj JERUSALEM,

Origin and Development of the St. John Ambulance Associa tion

Pamph. ~

The period covered by this report has been one of steady progress. Railway Centres ha,'e maintained the high level reached last year, and the majority of other Centres also show an increa e in the number of c rtificates issued. The Corps of Military Police and the Army chool of Physica1 Training at Aldershot have again held classes and those formed by the Officer Commanding Ll-th Hussars have not only been continued, but have led to t he form ation of c1as e among other units in the rmy of Occupation on the Rhine. CIa ses in Palestine have also been continued. A class of blind girls attended a course of instruction la t year. In this connection it m ay be mentioned that at the request of the I ational Institute for the Blind permission was given by the Ambulance Committee to translate the First Aid textbook into Braille so that copies might be included in the library of that Institute. Through the medium of Centres and Detached Classes the Association has issued during the year 6,124 medallions, 20,289 labels and 2, 594 pendants. There is an increase in the number of medallions and pen dants issued this year, but t he number of labels is slightly smaller. The total number of certificates issued to 30th Sept ember, 1922, is 1,520,313, and during the year as follows : INSTRUCT I ON .

THE ST. JOHN AMBULA TCE ASSOCIATION

COMPETITIONS.

Arrangements have been made for the instruction and examination of all recruits of the Metropolitan Police POLICE. Force in First Aid by the St. J ohn Ambulance Association, and for the re-examination of constables already holding certificates. The Commissioner of Police has authori ed all constables who are qualified by examination or re-examination to wear the badge of the Association, and suggests that every officer should take a refresher course at least every three years, and be re-examined. In thi way there will be uniformity of instruction throughout the Force. A large number of m embers of the Prince of Wales's Corps of the St. John Ambulance Brigade have volunteered to act as instructors at the refresher courses for police now being organised in the Metropolitan area.

Owing to the contempl~ted intro~uction of .the grouping ~ysten: t his is probably the last occaSlOn on w~lch the Railway Compames WIll .be identified under these names, and It may be well, therefore, to publIsh the winners of the: Shield since the initiation of the competition in 18 97 : -

METROPOLITAN

The publication of the Preliminary Fir. t Aid text book has been completed and there is a good demand for the book. The number of juvenile cla ses formed during the year is greater than ever before: one contributing factor is no doubt the number of persons coming forward fo r enrolment in the newly sanctioned cadet divisions of the Brigade. It may be mentioned that since the clo e of the period under review it has been decided to publish a Preliminary Home Nursing textbook. PUBLICATI ONS.

The preliminary competltlOns for the Inter-Railway Challenge Shield and prizes presented by the Order of St. J ohn were held at St. John's Gate on 26th, 27th and 2eih April, 1922, t he judges being D. de Vere Hunt, L.R.C.P.ED., of ardiff and Captain A. B. Leakey, M.B., of Golders Green. Of the twenty-four teams which entered for t he competition the following qualified in the order given for the final :-1, South Eastern and Chatham Railway; 2, Ietropolitan R ailway; 3, London and South-Western Railway; 4, London and K orthWestern Railway; 5, Furness Railway; 6, Alexandra ( ewport and Sou th Wales) Docks and Railway; 7, Great \Vestern Raihvay; 8, Great Eastern Railway and London, Brighton and outh Coast Railway. The final competition was held at the Cannon treet Hotel, London, on 11th May, 1922, the judges being Lieut.-Colonel C. 1. Ellis, C.M.G., M.D., of Torquay, and A. T.

:-10 competition was held from 1915 to 1919 inclusive owing to the disorganisation caused by the war. It will be seen that the Great Eastern Railway and the Alexandra ( ewport & outh Wales) Dock and Railway have each won the shield five times .

A large number of towns in all parts of the country have been visited by Ir. Hanmer during the year and his exhibitions have been witnessed by about 70,000 persons. EXH I BI TI ONS. vVith the much valued co-operation of the Great \\'estern Railway and Plymouth and Dist.rict Centres of the Association a new film entitled" The Message," has been produced and has proved a great attraction. Mr. Hanmer's demonstrations continue to be of value as a means for creating or reviving interest in ambulance work and frequently lead to the formation of classes and bring in recruits to the Brigade.

The number of certificates and other awards issued during the year i 5,466, bein a an increase of 2,259. Encouraging reports of the progress of ambulance work have been received from the following Centres --Borough of ewpor t, Borough of Swansea, City of Cardiff, Aberdare, D enbighshire, Brecon hire , Carmarthenshire, Borough of Rhondda, Monmouthshire and the Borough of Merthyr. The motor ambulance transport service continues to make excellent progress and the steady increase in the number of patients carried show that its value is being more keenly realised. The demand for the establishment of new stations is increasing, and every effort is being made to meet it. During the year the cars carried 1,956 cases and covered 36,899 miles. 31 workmen's lodges have become regular subscribers and agreements have been entered into between the Priory and 43 colliery companies. The Miners' Welfare Fund made a grant of £2,000 in aid of the service. PR IO RY FOR

A building to be used as headquarters for the centre and the local division of the St. John Ambulance Brigade has been purchased. The issue of awards shows a slight decrease on last year's figures.

During the six months ending 30th eptember, 1922, (the centre having been formed on 29th March, 1922), arrangements were made through the local Higher Education committ es in places where such committees existed, and in other places, by the centre, for the formation of classes of instruction in first aid and home nursing to commence in the early autumn. Clas e are in progre s at Aylesbury, Buckingham, Beacon field, Chesham, lver, Pre twood, Princes Risborough, Slough and \Yolverton. Fiye further clas eshave been arranged to commence early in the new year. The County Education Committee has agreed, subject to its regulations and tho~e of the Board of Education being carried out, that in place where a local Higher Education Committee does not exist or where the local committee is not prepared to undertake the organi ation of first aid and horne nul' ing classes under the Association, applications for grants in aid in respect of these classes may be made through the centre direct to the County Education Committee. At the Annual County Competitions held in May last, the County Challenge hield, presented by the l\Iayors of Buckinghamshire, was won for the second time in ucce ion by the Wolverton Division of the St. John Ambulance Brigade; and t.h "Lady Rothschild" Challenge Cup was won by the Buckingham Xur ing Division of the Brigade. It is gratifying to record t.hat all Divi ion of the St. John Ambulance Brigade and t. John Voluntary Aid Detachments in the County are co-operating with the centre and a i -ting in every way to promote its aims, which in no way conflict with or overlap the specific work of the two organisations.

The three ambulance stations provided by the centre have attended to 71 cases during the year, and the motor ambulance has carried out 41 removals to and from hospital. The classes are well attended and a strong committee for next year's work ha been formed.

A a result of the work of the centre there is great improvement in this district in the provision of ambulance room and equipment at the different works, with attendance at accidents.

The centre has had a successful year, the inter t in ambulance work having revived. A grant of £25 was made to " Ambulance Headquarters" in Cheltenham from the centre funds. Dr. H ebblethwaite, who has held the post of honorary secretary with distinction since 1912 has retired but has been elected to the committee. Colonel Fenwick has been appointed honorary secretary.

The invalids loan section is still .highly appreciated and has received by gift from the "Halifax Couner and Guardian" a new juvenile spinal carriage, and from the local police a gift of a water bed. The ambulance held under the home service scheme is in constant demand and has proved a boon to the town.

The general activities of the centre have been maintained during the year. Members have rendered valuable assistance in many cases of accidents.

In addition to a large increase in the number of ambulance boxes issued by the committee under the charge of qualified SATURDAY FUND . men in workshop and factories, there have also been applications and enquiries for boxes designed to meet the requirement of the Home Office under the \Yelfare ct. The value of ambulance work in factorie may be gathered from the fact that the reports in respect of 83 ambulance boxes show that. fir t aid was rendered tc? 7, 01 5 cases of which 307 were removed to hospItal.

Great interest has been shown generally in ambulance work during the year. Through the generosity of the Leicester public, a motor ambulance has been provided. It has fully justified its acquisition and is working splendidly. Special efforts have been made by the committee to bring the advantages of a knowledge of first aid and home nursing before the work-people of the city, and many new supporters have been obtained. The transport service for the conveyance of ick and injured in civil life continues its good work; 1,778 calls were attended and the greatest approval has been expressed of the care and attention given to the cases dealt with.

The work of the centre has been maintained during the pa ~ t year with satisfactory results. pecial efforts have CENTRE. been made to encourage the formation of ambulance classes in factorie and workshops.

During the year the work of the St. John Ambulance Association in Ireland has undergone a distinct revival, most noticeable towards the close of the Association year. The railways are beginning to take an interest in ambulance work, and. the M~dlar:d Great Western Railway has started a very large class of mstructlOn ill first aid. At headquarters in Dublin a beautiful lecture room has been fitted up and classes are being held there in the evenings. The work of instruction in the country districts-always more difficult than in the towns, but now, owing to the disturbed state of the country increasingly so-can only be said to be holding its own.

Greater interest is now being shown by the Post Office staff in the work of the centre resulting in progress being made during the past year. The activp membership ismen 2 6, women 213, total 499, an increase over the preceding year of 52. The members maintain their efficiency and hold themselves in readiness, at the various Post Offices and Departments in the London Postal area in which they are employed to render assistance in cases of sudden illness or accident; Postal football matches and other Post Office functions have been attended by request, and much useful service has been rendered; 6,357 cases have received first aid assistance. Ambulance instruction is now being given to the Post Office messengers with the object of forming Cadet Divisions in connection with the t. John Ambulance Brigade. At the distribution of awards and the competitions the Rt. Hon. F. G. Kellaway, M.P. (The Postmaster General) honoured the centre by attending and distributing the awards and trophies. The former event was held on Thursday, 18th March, 1922, and was attended by 3511 postal officials. The competitions were held on 16th November, 1921, before a large audience. The winners were as follows : -The Challenge 3hield, Mount Pleasant "A" team; The Women's Trophy, G.P.O. South (Telephones); The Corps Trophy (Individual test), Mr. W. H. Broom. The centre again desires to place on record its thanks and appreciation to the Post Office Department for the various facilities and assistance granted it to enable the furtherance of the Association work in the Post Office buildings, and to the Medical Officers for lecturing to and otherwise assisting in the instruction of the members.

During the last twelve months ambulance work has steadily held its own, and all candidates have done well, there being a small percentage of failures. The Police classes have been exceptionally good, and the first aid work done by them is very praiseworthy. During the summer season upwards of 100 cases were attended to.

The work has been carried on with enthusiasm during the year. Several successful classes have been held and the financial position of the centre has improved, the funds of the centre having profited materially as the result of a flag day, mill collections, succes ful dancps, concerts, and whist drives.

The interest in first aid work has been fully maintained during the twelve months ended 30th September, 1922, NORTH WESTERN RAILWAY and though the previous year's results created a record (L. & Y. SECTION) for the centre the number of men examined during the twrlve months under review showed an increase of 71. The number of first year men has fallen off and this has no doubt been brought about by the trade depression and by the consequent reduction in staff at many places. It is, however, satisfactory to find that a large proportion of the staff who passed for the first time in 1921 have continued their interest and presented themselves for re-examination thi year. The Company's Meritorious First Aid certificate was awarded to 1r. \Y. H.

It is only by such co-operation that the Branch can hope to bring about a better understanding of the importance of ite:; educational work in its application to the peculiar necessities of the Workmen's Compensation Boards throughout the Dominion.

In addition to the above certificates there were i sued I,439 vouchers, 2 -4- medallions, 82 pendants and 579 labels. There are now 65 4 I 5 registered certificate holders in the Dominion. The President, H.E. the Governor-General of the Dominion, who is the President of ew Zealand Centres, has, on CENTRE, N.I. various occasions, evinced his interest in the work of the Association and the Brigade. 36 cla es of instruction in first aid and home nursing were formed during the year, and the number of p rsons Vi'l10 attended courses of not less than 5 lectures was 836. The Committee record their thanks to members of t.he St. John Ambulance Brigade for a istance in forming classes, and for acting a demonstrators, also to Boy couts who acted as models for class s. The b\'o motor ambulanc have been kept running steadily, there being 852 ca es transported, a against I,I40 cases in I920-2I, the mileage run being ,427. 1 TO charg has been made in 5I necessitous cases.

The past year has be n one of marked activity. The usual winter classes were held in Palmerston, Dun din. Hampden, Invercargill and :\losgiel, and the increasing interest in t.he country districts, where a knowledge of first aid is specially valuabl ,is gratifying. The ';I,'ork is spreading and new branches have been form din Qu enstO\yn and Balclutha which have already proved of great benefit to these districts. Enquiries have been received from several other parts of the province and it is expected that the coming year will see further development. The centre has suffered an irreparable loss by the death of its rev red President, the Right Reverend Bishop Nevill, D.D., a sub-Prelate of the Order of St. John, who for over thirty years took a keen interest in its work, and never spared himself in furthering its welfare. Perhaps the most far-reaching work of the centre is its district nursing service. The three nurses deserve the sincere thanks of the community for the whole-hearted and self-denying manner in which they attend to the wants of the sick and suffering. During the year they paid 5,526 visits, and it is impossible to estimate what this service means to those who are dependent on the centre for care and attention in time of need. The St. John Sewing Guild has recently been formed to supplement the ordinary nursing work by the provision of clothing, etc., in needy cases. It has already amply proved its usefulness in this direction and may':be considered a valuable auxiliary to the nursing branch. Arrangements are being made for the centre to provide a lady who will attend hospital daily for some hours, meet patients on arrival, communicate with their friends if required, visit them in the wards, and generally wat ch ov"'r their DUNEDIN,

welfare. The ambulance service placed at the disposal of Dunedin and the surrounding districts will bear favourable comparison with any and has earned the highest approbation from all who have had reason to make use of it. The major portion of the credit for this is due to the splendid co-operation of the Fire Board, by whom the work is carried out. The total number of trips made during the year was I,063, of which a large number were to and from places far distant from town. The work entails a heavy financial loss, but the centre confidently looks forward to the public for a si tance in the maintenance. The annual general meeting was, as usual, held at Viceregal Lodge, imla, on 24th June, I92I (St. John's Day). Hi. Excellency the Viceroy presided and His Excellency the Commander1n- hief presented the annual report. A special meeting of the Executive ommittee was held on the 25th June, I92I, which representatives of Provincial entres per ent in Simla were invited to attend. Many points of intere t to ambulance workers were discussed, and it was decided to invite centres to nominate a member of their Committee to serve on the headquarters Executive Committee. The following centres have nominated their members for the Central Executive Committee:Bangalore, Baroda, Bihar and Orissa, Central Provinces, Coorg, East Indian Railway, Hyderabad (Deccan), Indore, Jammu and Kashmir, Iaora, Kolar, 1 arsingarh 1 orth-\Vestern Railway, Oudh and Rohilkhllnd Railway, Punjab, Rajgarh, Rajputana, Rutlam, ailana, Sitaman, and United Provinces. During the year under review I2,372 persons attended classes of instruction in first aid, home nursing, home hygiene and , anitation, 7,297 certificates were issued; during the last eleven years 6,1.+0 persons, out of I9I,877 who have appeared for examination, have obtained certificates. At Calcutta the All-Indian Railway Ambulance hield was won for the East India Railway by the Jamalpur team. After a lapse of four or five years, the First Aid Competition for the Kolar ..Told Field l\Iining Board Challenge Shield was held under the au pices of the local branch of the Asc;ociation in the Nundydroog kating Rink, Oorgaum, on the 4th F ebruary, I922, in the pre ence of a large gathering from the various ifining Camps on the Field. The competition was open to one or more teams (of four each) from any Mine on the Kolar Gold Field, the members of which must he employed on the Mine they represent and holders of the First Aid C rtificates of the Association. The winners of the Challenge Shield were the Champion Reef team. Classes of instruction in first aid, home nursing, home hygiene and sanitation under the auspices of the various Provincial, tate and Railway centres continue to be organised in connection with the Y.vV.C.A., Government high schools and colleges, Police, Merchant Service, Imperial Service Troops and the native community. At Amritsar large numbers of posters on the cause and prevention of cholera and handbills on plague, small pox and influenza were distributed amongst the natives. IND IAN BRANCH .

During the year 120 clas es have been h Id in first aid and home nursing. The organising of fresh classp has been vigorously carried out with good r uJts, and successful efforts to revive country branches have been made. The value of a knowledge of first aid by the Police has been recognised by the D partment; 6 classes, resulting in the issue of about 300 certificates, ha\'e been held. Classes have also been held by the Y.1I.C.A., ' alvation Army, Methodist Girls' Comradeship, Y.\V.C.A., and several Girls' Friendly Societies. A handsome shield for competition by member of the Brigade Overseas has been presented to the centre by :JIrs. Lane Mullins. Mrs. Aubrey Withers hal) tendered her resignation as ecretary, and Sister A. B. Parry, A.T.N.A. (late A.I.F.) has been appointed to succ ed her. Mr. James Muir, a valued member of the Executive ommittee, died during the year. He had been keenly interesteo in ambulance work for many years. The Committee received an appeal during the year to help the work of the Ophthalmic Hospital of the Order at J eru alem and forwarded a donation of £10, through headquarters, London. A donation of £25 was also made to the. ew outh \Vales Branch of the St. John Ambulance Brigade Overseas. The committee desires to offer its sincere thanks to all who have in any way worked for the furtherance of the objects of the centre during the pa~t year. NEW SOUTH WALES.

The Police Department has resumed first aid classes for probationers and since last July 70 men have qualified for certificates. During the year a Government grant of £100 for the organisation of classes in first aid and home nursing in outlying townships in the Provinces of Hawkes Bay, Taranaki, and Wellington has been received. The death during the year of the Hon. J. G. W. Aitken, M.L.C., one of the Vice-Presidents of the centre and a trustee of its Quarter's Fund, removes a valued friend and helper. The Macarthy Trustees have again generously made a grant of £50 towards the educational work of the centre. WELLINCTON, N.Z.

REPORTS FROM OVERSEAS CENTRES.

During the year 40 classes were held in all parts of the State, as compared with 25 tor the previous year. Practically the whole of the constabulary of the S tate have qualified under the rules of the Association to render first aid to the injured, while every member of the permanent staff of the fire brigades is r quired to qualify. Volunteer firemen are also encouraged to obtain certificates. The Railway Department, while not enforcing a first aid qualification, offers strong inducements for its employees to obtain such. The aspirations of the centre, after many years of effort, have this year been realised, when the headquarters of the Association and Ambulance Depots were officially opened on 19th December by the Patron, H.E. ir Francis Newdegate, K.C.M.G., who congratulated the centre on the practical result of its great work in the cause of humanity. The Depot is situated in Murray treet, and is a spacious two-storey building, containing a large lecture hall, council chamber, private quarters for the Superintendent, and garage. Four motor ambulances have been acquired, two of which are in daily use, while the others are maintained for u e in ca e of emergency. The service was actively operated as from lst July, and although it has been in action for only one month, the necessity for its exi tence has become more evident. Practically onethird of the cases attended to, so far, have been medical, for which no provision whatever has previously been available to the citizens. The centre expresses its indebtedness and gratitude to all who have subscribed towards the erection of the Depot, the medical profession, the Pre -s and others who have supported the work of the centre. WEST AUSTRALIAN HEAD C ENTRE.

The number of classes in first aid and home nursing arranged through the County Centre during the year has been greater than in any previous year, and the number of awards issued con titutes a record for the entre. mong the classes held in various parts of the County may be mentioned those at the works of Messrs. Ru ton and Hornby, Ltd., Clayton and huttleworth, Ltd., and Robey and 0., which have been rendered possible by the very generous financial help given by these firms. Those for the Police in Lincoln, Grimsby and Grantham are also worthy of note, and it is gratifying to find that with the exception of three, every I .e.0. and man in the Lincoln Police Force holds the medallion of the Association. At a largely attended meeting in the Grimsby Town Hall, presided over by the Lord Lieutenant (The Earl of Yarborough) and attended by the County President (The Earl of Liverpool), Lord Monson, the Mayor, and many others, a Centre was formed in the town. As an outcome of the meeting a fully equipped ambulance hut on the Fish Dock was established. The Sick Room Stores branch has made progress in spite of financial difficulties in many di tricts; the value of the depots is increasingly apparent, and new ones have been formed at Spalding and Caistor.

Ninety per cent. of these Divisions were formed for service during the late War, and their activities ceased soon after its termination. They have been retained on the Roll during the past three years in the hope that wh~n the War weariness had subsided it would have be n possible to reVIve them . As, however, there is no immediate prospect of reviving them, their disbandment has now been effected. A number of members have transferred from these t o other Diyisions. UNITS.

of the Brigad last year, persons who joincd the Bn gade for \iVar serVIce, and who, under the Brigade Regulations, could not ?e removed from the Roll un til the expiry of three years incfficien t serVIce, except by resignation; and, further, owing to the state of unemplo:yment which has been acute during the past year, many members of the Bn gade have been compelled to remove to other Districts, and, in a great many cases, to places where the Brigade is not represented. Consequently they are temporarily lost to the Brigade, but there is e~i ~e?ce of .t heir i~terest in ambulance work and the pro pect of new DIVIsIOns bemg formed where they have not hitherto exi ted. It has also been found that as soon as opportunities are afforded them they re-j oin the Brigade. The following Officers have been appointed by H.R.H. The Grand P rior:Assistant Commissioner A.

I .aI? glad to report that a large number of Corp~ and DIVIsIOns now have Motor Ambulances, the majonty of which are the property of the Brigade and vested in the Corps or Divisional Committees. Many Divisions have also undertaken to assist the Joint ommittee of the Order of St. John and Briti h Red Cross Society under its Home ervice Ambulance Scheme by maintaining the local service of the Joint Ambulances allotted to them by County Directors. I have received the following letter from the Home ervice Amblllance Committee : (( 19, Berkeley Street, (( London, W .I.

REPORT OF THE LADY

uPERI.t\TENDE~T-I.t\-CIUEF.

The ursing Divisions of the Prince of \i\Tales' District showcd the kind st and most generous hospitality to the members of the other Districts who came to London to compete for the Perrott hield last May, and gave cvery possible assistance. I am specially indebted to Lady District Officer Mrs. Porter, of Birmingham, for the invaluable help she gave on that occasion, and also to my taff Officer, !iss Bean, and to Lady uperintendent Mrs. Brooks for meeting the diff rent teams on their arrival. The Women's BrigaJc Committee has continued to meet and has bcen of great assi tance in drawing up the rules for the Competition and in keeping thc different Districts in touch with one another as far as the N ur ing Divisions arc concerned. In conclu ion, I am glad to see the after-war weariness has passed off and that t.he Brigade is as enthu iastic and keen over their work and recruiting fresh member as t.ll y were before the war. The Lady Di trict upcrint ndents and Di trict Officer are doing splcndid work in their Di t.rict.s and have been a great help to me personally. The death of Lady .JIaud \Vilbraham, Lady Di trict uperintendent of .1 TO. I. Di t.rict, has b n a ,'cry great loss to the Brigade, and I, per -onally, havc missed her greatly, as she always did all in her power not only to work for her Di trict, but al 0 to help me. I cannot close thi report without referring to the appointment of Lady Onslow as her succcs or, who, I feel urc, will help us in every way she can, and bring fresh nthusiasm to the work, bv her keenness in all Ambulance and Tursing work. ' THE PERROTT SHIELD.

Report of the Lady Superintendent-in-Chief. SIR,

I have the honour to submit my report for the year ending 1922. During the year I inspected the following N nrsing Divi ions. I NSPECTIONS. In N . E ast H am, \Vest H am, Bar'mg, k' B ec krton, I o. I . D'1 tnct, Manor Park, Stratford, \ Yalthamstow, Craig's ourt. In TO. VIII. District. Canterbury. InNo. VI.

In ~o. V. District: Batley, Dcwsbury, Leed Central, Leed Victoria, hiplcy and District Corps, Otley Nursing Divi ion, Bradford "Iona," Bradford Tramways, Bradford Co-operative .ociety, JIorl y, Hebden Bridge, Sheffield Corps, heffield Nursing Division and He ley. Everywhere I was satisfied of the efficiency of the ~ Tur-ing Divi ions and I was extremely pleased with the great keennes displaycd by the members in their work. \ Vhile at Tewcastle I inspected a large number of th ncwly-formed Cadet Corps; the e younger member displayed wonderful nthu iasm, and, I think, will prove a very useful recruiting ground for our X ur:,ing Divisions. In the large industrial centres there are more younger mcmb rs coming forward, but it is important that classes should be formed so that new members can be trained. I have found that in thos Divi ions which ha\'e succeeded in forming classes and thus bringing in fresh mcmbcr:" there is more enthu iasm than in those which have been contcnt to carryon solely with their older members. I was present at the annual inspection of the Prince of \Vale ' District in Hyde Park, but the members would have lookcd smarter on Parade if they had learned simple drill and had b en able to be form d up in the way usually adopted in the Provinces. T

I am glad to report that our members are still working industriously in the Civil Hospitals in London, and also in many parts of the country. During the past year in London alone our members made over 2,265 attendances at the hospitals. Of th e 9-+2 were at thc Charing Cross Hospital, 841 at the London Hospital and 257 at the Royal Free Hospital. In every case we are deeply indebted to the Matrons for th ir kindness and courtesy in receiving our members and giving them the advantage of this exceedingly useful experience. Members of ursing Divisions in No . I. District are working daily at the Crystal Palace and many of the Welfare Centres, also for the Tuberculosis Care Committee and at several Dispensaries, where their r egular attendancc is of the greatest value and the same work is being carried ou t by our ursing Divisions in a great part of the co un try.

honour to be,

Funeral of Field-Marshal Sir Henry Wilson at St. Paul's Cathedral. On the former occasion the crowds were very large and over 1,000 cases were treated . The attendance of Ambulance men and Sisters, however, were quite adequate. The usual duties at holiday grounds, places of entertainment and race duties have been undertaken, and as far as I can ascertain, the services of our members have been quite satisfactory. I regret to report the deaths of several of our Members: Lady Maud Wilbraham, O.B.E., Lady District Superintendent, after a long Illness; Captain Sebright and Superintendent Statham. I regret to report that the following Officers have retired after many years u seful service: District Officer Captain Lines, Lady District Officer ::\lrs. Lines, and ::\Iiss J31ye Bourke. The strength of the Brigade in the District has not materially altered since la.st ycar's Report. The number of I\mbulance Officers and men, including Staff, being 2,329, and the number of lady officers, rank and file, being 1,229. I have t.he honour to remain, Your obedient Servant, (Signed) ,V.

SIR, I have the honour to suhmit my report lor the year cnded 1922.

The following Division has been formed -juring the year: \ Ymdc;or Railway Division. It is with much regret I record the loss to the district of Assistant Commis~ i o ner F . Sprawson, Esquire of the Order, who has been my most valued and reliable colleague, and has on all important occasions acted as my per 'onal assistant t h r oughout an equal period of Brigade service . I am pleased to mention that tbe valuable services of 111.y District ,ergt -:\Iajor A . J. Owens Britton have heen rewarded by his promotion as a Dis trict Ufficer. After thirty-tv.·o years' service in tbe Brigade, feeling the time ha ' arri.ved for me to r etire from my active service as Commi ~ sioner of the District, I placed my resignation in the hands of the Chief Commissioner. This has been graciously accepted by H.R.H. The Grand Prior and the Chapter-General I am glad, ho\\ ever, t o say I shall continue to remain an Hon . Member of the Chief Commissioner's taff at Headquarters and the Brigade Advisory Committee. It is gratifying to know that tbe NO. 2 District, although at present working on a County basis, is yet intact, and that the Assistant Commissioners- members of my staff whose past services have been everything tbat could be desirable in aiding me in carrying out the control of the District-arc shll in charge of their respective counties, wbich as')ures me that the traditions of the District will continue. I wish to p lace on record that the Staff Officers , Officers of Corps and Divisions, and the entire personnel of the District have worked with me in perfect and complete harmony during my whole period of office. Misunderstandings and friction of any kind have been practically unknown . I feel, therefore, all the more regret at parting from such friends and [ello\\--"\vorkers and in giving each one my true and beartfelt thanks to assure them of my continuous interest in all th eir efforts for t he welfare of t he Brigade. I h ave the h onou r to r emain, Sir, Y ou r ob edient Serv ant, J OHN S. GRIFFITHS , Comm ission er. Knight of Grace of the Order of St. John of J erus<1.lem in Engla nd .

Wilkins, Clare Villa, Longford, CoventrY.-(3. IT. 19.) REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER. SIR, I have the honour to submit my report for the year ending 31st December, 19 22 . More interest is again being taken in the work of the Brigade and although some Divisions have ceased to exist, new units have taken their place. and the members of the old divisions have made themselves thoroughly efficient as a rule. Flag Days have brought to the notice of the public the fact that the Brigade is a valuable asset, while a welcome addition has been made to its funds . TO doubt next year the contributions will show a large increase. Efforts have been made in Birmingham, Leicester and Nuneaton to secure permanent H eadquarters. Some measure of success has been achieved. A scheme is under consideration in Warwickshire, whereby it is hoped that every Colliery will be enabled to secure a small but thoroughly efficient ambulance service. Mr. W . Johnson, Miner's Agent, is giving me valuable assistance. The annual inspections have been duly carried out. Speaking generally they have been satisfactory. In some instances Divisional Secretaries have given themselves much unnecessary work by not keeping the records up to date. General Regulations, Brigade and District Orders should be much more carefully studied. I should wish to place on record my gratitude to my Stall, to Corps and Divisional Officers and the rank and file for their continued loyalty and support, without which it would be difficult to carryon. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your obedient servant, (Si!{l1ed) W . DORE R UDGARD . Chaplain of the Order of St. J oh n of J erusalcm.

17, "\YINCKLEY SQUARE, PRESTON , 3rd May, Ig22. SIR, I have the honour to present my Report as Commissioner, NO. 4 orth-vVestern District SL John .\mbulance Brigade, for the year ending the 31st December, 1972. The work of keeping together Units of the St. J ohn Ambulance Brigade has altered very considerably. It appears to me that there is much less desire, in fact in some instanccs a total disinclination for voluntary work, on the part of those to whom we might look for assistance in recruiting the Brigade. This widespread tendency has militated considcrably against the expansion of the organisation, and though I need not seriously complain, yet, it has required the greatest possible energy on the part of the District Staff and the officers associated with Ambulance Corps and Divisions and Nursing Divisions to keep the work of t he Brigade in a n efficient condition. I n last my report, I pointed ou t that a certain number of Units wer e in a doubtfu l position . After endeavouring to make these Units understand that they must either become efficient or cease to exist, I have had to recommend to you the striking off of a certain number of these attenuated Divisions. I trust the pivisions recommended for disban dment will clear o. 4 District completely of Its dormant Units.

No. IV.

THE ,T. JOHN Al\IBULANCE BRIGADE.

On the other hand I have pleasure in recording the formation of five new Units , and think there is every prospect of further developments in this direction. On the 31st December, 1922, the strength of o. 4 District was as follows : Ambulance Corps 14, mbulance Divisions I27, and Nursing Divisions 100. I had returns from 205 Units and 22 Units failed to furnish returns. It is satisfactory to note that during the year under review, defaulting Units are few. I now tabulate the strength of Ambulance Corps. Ambulance Divisions and ursing Divisions: Al\IBULANCE.

It is particularly gratifying to note that the strength of Ambulance Corps and Divisions has had an increase equal to 351 of all ranks and the Jursing Units are practically the same in strength as that recorded in 19 2 I. Generally speaking, considerable interest was displayed in competitive work and tb e usual annual Competitions took place. The Preliminary Competition for the Dewar Shield was held in Manchester on the 15th April, and I o. 4 District was again represented in the final Competition by a team from the Brierfield Division. In conjunction with this Competition, I have to report that frs. Tweedale, RRC., J.~. , Lady District Superintendent, has presented a beautiful Silver Challenge ShIeld, to be awarded to the team winning this test. It gives me great pleasure to record this fact in my Annual Report, as Mrs. Tweedale's generosity towards tb e District has been amplified on many occasions. The following Reviews and Inspections took place during the year - On Saturd~>:,. the 27th May, the Units comprising the South East Lancashire Corps and D1VlSlOns paraded for Inspection at Atherton. The District had hoped that you, Sir, as Chief Commissioner of the Brigade, would have inspected the Parade, but unfortunately you were unable to be present, so I undertook this duty. The parade proved to be a record one, the total being 36 Ambulance Corps and Division together with 37 Tursing Divisions, yielding a total of 797 Ambulance Officers and Men, and 561 Lady Ambulance Officers and Sisters, 8 Divisional Surgeons acting as judges, and eight members of the District Staff; grand total on parade, 1374· I was exceedingly pleased with all I saw. On Saturday, the 17th June, I inspected the Cheshire Corps and Divisions. The parade was held at Altrincham. There was a total strength of 293, comprising 13 Ambulance Divisions and 9 Nursing Divisions. With reference to these two parades, I submitted special Reports to you. I.n connection with these Reviews and Inspection certain Competitions are held, whIch need not be detailed here. During "Whit-week in Manchester, the Units of the St. John Ambulance Brigade paraded for street duty. This work was carried out in conjunction with the members of the British Red Cross Society. In reporting on this Parade, District

DISTRICT.

Officer W. Maxwell Reekie, O.B.E., points out that there were on parade in l\1anon \Vhit-Monday, 170 of all ranks belonging to the St. John Ambulance Bngade, and again on Whit-Friday, 171 Officers and men, and Nurses were on duty. On both days 40 Stations were formed, and 1063 cases were treated. During the Festival of the Preston Guild Merchant (this function taking place once in 20 years) a very considerable amount of Ambulance duty was undertaken and I would here like to state that I was exceedingly gratified with the way the Units of th.e Pres~on Corps, both men and women, together with assistance from neighbounng umts, conducted this w~rk from beginning to finish. It was most praisew~rth>: and reflected great credIt o.n all concerned on account of the organising skill dl~played. TI:e work was noticed and commented upon, and Lady Hollins was so Impressed WIth what the Brigade men and women did, that she presented a cheque for £500 towards paying off the debt of the Preston Ambulance Hall. A speclal report of this work has been submitted to you. The Royal Lancashire Agricultural Society held its Annual Show in Preston during Guild week. As bas been customary for a great number of years, Ambulance duty was performed by the members of the St. John Ambulance Brigade on the immense Show Ground. On the 4th October, Mrs. Percy Birley presented to the Kirkham Division a verv handsome new Amb.ul<;tnce \\'aggon. This was accepted on behalf of the Brigad'e by .\s.-;lslant Commissloner \Voodcock M.B.E. On the 7th October, the nnual onference of the District was held by the kind, invltation of the :'IIanches ter and Salford Corps. Some 900 delegates attended and the Conference was opened by the Lord layor of Manchester. We had the pleasure of welcoming the Brigade Secretary, Major Darvil-Srnith, C.B.E. After the Conference the delegates we're generously entertained by the Officers and members of the :'Ilanchester and Salford Corps. On the 5th Xovembe~, I unveiled a memorial erected to the memory of the members of the Lancaste r DlVl 'lOns who lost their Eves on Active Service. The tablet commemorating the memory of tho e who fell, was placed in the Parish Church at Lancaster. I was present at the opening of the New Ambulance Hall, acquired by the Morecambe Am.bulance and ursing Divisions, by the Earl of Derby on the 22nd February, 1922, and I accepted the Hall on behalf of the District and the Order. Details of this ceremony have already been furnished to you by me. From the loth to the 20th lay, a Bazaar was held at More cam be in the new Drill Hall, with the object of liquidating the debt on this building. The Bazaar was most successful, no less a sum than £2,073 being realised. On the ~9th November, I was present at the opening of a Drill Hall (presented to the ,Adlmgton and Heath Charnock Division by members of the Reform Club) con.slstl.ng. of. a substantial wooden building. completely fitted for the purpose for WhICh It IS Intended. It is to be recorded that the Preston Corps are now settled in their substantial new Headquarter. very conveniently situated in the centre of the town . The fac~lities afforded by this building should have a very stimulating effect on this Uillt. In closin~ this Report I desire ~o a.vail myself of the opportunity of placing on record my mdebtedness to ~he Dlstnct Staff, both individually and collectively. I. have ha~ the greatest pOSSIble help and encouragement from them, and it is only nght and Just that I should, through the medium of this Report, endeavour to thank th~m, and the Corps and Divisional Officers . and the members of each Unit of the Bngade <l:nd also. the Lady Officer, and members of the Nursing Divisions. I am mos.t a.n xlOus ~o Impress on all ranks my high appreciation of their zeal and self demalm carrylllg on the work of the St. J ohn Ambulance Brigade in NO.4 District. ch~ster

I have the honour to be, Sir, Your obedient Servant, (Signed) CHARLES J. TRIMBLE (Colonel). Commissioner NO.4 District, Knight of Grace of the Order of St. John. The Chief Commissioner.

REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER. ROCK CLIFFE, CHEADLE, STOKE-aN-TRENT, IR, 31st December, 1922. I have the honour to submit my report for the year ending 31st December, 1922. During the year there have been formed 3 ew Corps, IO ew Ambulance Divisions 2 new Sections of Ambulance Divisions, one Cadet Ambulance Division and one Cadet J.. Tursing Divi~ion. It is regrettable that it has been necessary to disband 14 mbulance Divisions, 2 Sections of m bulance Divisions and 11 ursing Divisions. This reduces the total strength of the District to 27 Corps, 184 Ambulance Divisions, and 86 Nursing Divisions, with the 2 adet Divisions as an addition under that scheme of organising younger members. I wish, however, to point out that certain Ambulance and ~ ursing Divisions have been carried on under the most difficult conditions since the termination of the Viar owing to lack of interest, whilst the new Divisions which have been formed are in the great industrial centres, which shows that the interest is alive where it it is most needed and where the benefits are invaluable. I can report that the District is enthusiastic and the services rendered are of a high order and most appreciated by all sections of the community. I have pleasure in reporting that a District Camp was again held at Blackpool from August 6th to 13th, and, although the weather was very unpleasant the Camp was a great success both from the point of instruction and the happiness of all ranks of whom there were approximately 500 under canvas. On August loth, Deputy Chief Comm.issioner, Col. G. A. Moore, C.III.G., D.S .O., M.D., arrived to inspect us, and at the close of his inspection he expressed himself as highly satisfied with the parade and the arrangements made for the Camp.

I have the greatest regret in r eporting the death of my District Surgeon, Capt. A . J. Helm Montague, on the loth March. His services for many years had been of the greatest value to the District and to me personally . I also regret to report the deaths of the following Officers whilst holding office: Surgeon ' Y. Bennett, Dewsbury and District Corps. Ambulance Officer G . Peace, Dewsbury Division . In conclusion I must again thank all the 1\Iembers of my District Staff, who have been indefatigable in their efforts in their everal Counties and Area . not only to keep up the intere t in the Brigade, but also to increase it where at all possible. They in their tum have had the ,villing co-operation of all Officers of Corps anel Diy1.sions, without which it would be impossible to get such good results. I therefore ha"e great pl easure in taking this opportunity of thanking them all for their assistance in maintaining the high state of efficiency of the District. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your obedient Servant, (Signed) S. W . MALKI, , Commissioner, Knight of Grace of the Order of St.John . T he Chief Commissioner.

I regret. to report that the membership of the Corps and Divisions in the District again shows a slight decrease. This is almost entirely due to the fact that several Divisions have been kept on the Roll in t.he hope that they would revive after a long lapse since t.he V/ar; in the case of maoy individual members, they have been kept on the Roll of the various Divisions, when they might otherwise have been struck off for inefficiency for a considerable time. The time, has, however, come when these Divisions, that are really not in existence, have been crossed off, and Divi ional Superintendent,; have struck off a large number of inefficient members. This is undoubtedly a gain to the Brigade inasmuch as, although less in numbers, the efficiency is considerably higher. It is pleasing, on the other hand, to note that t.llere has been an actual increase in the membership of the Ambulance Divisions. This increase amounts to 61, and the total decrease in the District is entirely due t.o the falling off in the Nursing Divisions. At the end of 1922. the total membership was 3,666, consisting of 2,55 2 members of Ambulance Divisions and I,I14 members of ursing Divsions, which is 115 less than in 1921. There are in addition, however, 166 Boy Cadets and 82 Girl Cadets, making a grand t.otal of 3,914. There is a distinct revival in Ambulance w ork in certain districts, largely d u e to the individual efforts of prominent Corps or Divisional Officers; in other cases, however, very disappointing results have been shown.

THE

T. JOHN AMBULA CE BRIGADE.

The energy of the Torth Durham Corps, under the command of Corps Superintendent A . Payne, M.B. E., continues great. A motor ambulance has been obtained from the Home Service Ambulance Committee for Gateshead and is run entirely under the charge of the Corps. Thi Corps has shown its usefulness in many directions 'in Gateshead and district, and is now engaged in the conveyance of patients in Newcastle-on-Tyne, where, L am sorry to say, the Newcastle-on-Tyne Corps has had to abandon its transport service. The lid-Durham Corps, under Corps Superintend nt T. G. oble, is extending its influence and strength amid the collieries in Durham. A very successful Church Parade was held in Durham Cathedral on October 1st, when the Dean of Durham Bishop \"elldon, preached an inspiling sermon on the work of the Order and of the Brigade. The Torth Tyneside Corps and the Ashington Coal Co . Corps have both shown some activity. The Ashington Coal Co. Corps has a large number of members of the R. T.A.S.B.R. The Janow Division has done extremely good ·w ork. The Division has now under its charge two motor ambulances, and runs a constant service. No les'i than 557 cases were removed to the Royal Infirmary, Xewcasi.lc. dunng IlJ22. There are, in fact, so many cases for removal in the to,,'n of J arrow and district that frequently the ambulance van makes two and three journeys a day to Kewcaslle. The Sunderland Eastern Division is one of the stronaest in the Brigade, and carries out very useful work in connection with the shipyards and attend public duty at the football matches. The Hull Corps continues its useful work, for which it has established a high reputation in the East Riding. I regret to say that Ambulance work in South Shields and district has practically ceased. It is a great disappointment that all the many years of hard work done by the late Dr. J. R. Crease, District Surgeon, should have been lost. There has been unfortunately, however, an apathy shown by many concerned in carrying on Ambulance \Vork in this district. I hope, however, that fresh interest will he shown and that several of the Divisions, that have been in abeyance for S'1me time, will revive in 1923. I attended a very enthusiastic and large meeting of the officials and miners of Thornley Colliery in Durham, at which 1\1r. H. \Y. Fincham, the Assi'itanl Llbran;l11 of the Order, attended and gave an interesting address. I clo not rem (.: 111 ber ever having attended a l\Ieeting that was more encouraging or where a Diyisiol1 was formed under more favourable circumstances, and it is hoped that this DiviSIOn will soon get into full working order. Two new Nursing Divisions were formed during the year. The :'Ilidcllesbrough Central Tursing Divi ion, which was forn1erly an Association V.A.D. and the only one remaining within the District, has now come into the Brigade, and I feel sure, from the energy shown in the past outside the Brigade, that th Brigade ·will benefit very largely from this Division. The Ferryhill ~ursing Di, ision is a rcvi \'a! of an old Division, and has been re-registered. A pleasing feature of the ·work of the year has been the raising of Cadet Divic;ions. This has been taken up with a great amount of energy and enthusiasm by some of the Officers of the Brigade, and Divisions have been registered, or provisionally registered, as follows : GIRL CADETS. Gateshead Saltwell (Probationary) Cadet lHsing Division. Willington Quay (Probationary) Cadet Tursing Division. Gateshead Borough (Probationary) Cadet Xursing Division. Boy CADETS. Springw'ell Colliery (Probationary) Cadet Division . Hull Western Cadet Division. Percy Main (Probationary) Cadet Division. Hetton-le-Hole Cadet Division. Classes have been held, or are being held, to get as many of the members of the probationary Cadet Divisions as possible to qualify. I anticipate that many other Cadet Divisions will be formed, and it is looked to the younger generation to provide recruits for the Senior Divisions . The Deputy Chief Commissioner inspected the Ambulance and ursing Divisions of T yneside and neighbourhood at Newcastle-on-Tyne, on 8th July, 1922, when 966 members appeared on parade. The Inspection should have been a very imposing

one, and the Royal Grammar School Cricket Ground had been lent for the occasion. The Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress of Newcastle-on-Tyne attended . Unfortunately, however, the Inspection was completely spoilt by a deluge of rain all day, and consequently the ursing Divisions were inspected within the school building and the Ambulance Divisions in the Royal Engineers' Drill Hall. The Deputy Chief Commissioner again visited the District on 15th July, 1922, and inspected 191 members of the Divisions in the locality of Darlington, in the grounds of Blackwell Grange, kindly lent by Sir Henry Havelock-Allan, Bt. The Lady Superintendent-in-Chief inspected local Nursing Divisions at Newcastleon-Tyne on 1st December, 1922, and Corps and Divisions of the District have been inspected othenvise by myself or other members of the District Staff. The District and Members of the Order in the District subscribed for a very handsome \Var H.olI of Honour, which has been hung in the Headquarters of the District, recording the names of 238 members of the Brigade who lost their lives on service during the \Yar. The unveiling ceremony took place in St. Thomas' hurch, Newcastle-on-Tyne, on 2nd December, 1922. The ~lemorial was unveiled by the Secretary-General of the Order, ~lajor-General Sir Geoffrey Feilding, K.C.B., K.C. V.o., D.S.O .. The Lord ~Iayor of • ewcastle attended in state, with Sheriff, ~1ace Bearer ancI Town lerk. In the evening, the Officers of the Brigade entertained the ,'ecretary-General to dinner, at which a large number of people atttended. The following members of the Brigade have been admitted as Members or Honorary A sociates of the Order of St. John during the year : As Knight of Justice (from Knight of Grace) : Lieut.-Colonel Claude Bowes Palmer, C.B.E., D.L., Commissioner. As Lady of Grace: ?III'S. Ada :'lIar)" Thompson, Lady District Officer. As Honorary Serving Brothers: Divisional Supt. Jame Appleton. orps Officer john Henry Pigg.

I haye the honour to forward my reports for the year ending December 3 1st, 1922. The period under review has been an uneventful one, but there has been stead, consolidation in work, and the annual Competition for the Tursing Challenge hield, which was held on the same day as the District Inspection by the Deputy Chief Commission('r was looked forward to and keenly enjoyed by all present. It IS satisfactory to state that the County of Hereford is once agaiu represented in the Brigade. I attach the annual returns c<lIled for which demand no special remarks. It now becomes my duty to sa:v farewell to Ko. 7 District having sent in my re!-'igna tIon of the poc;t of Commis ioner, and also to thank all Officers, rank and file for their zeal and ready obedience.

REPORT Ol~ THE CO IMISSIONER. Sm, I have the honour to present my report for the year ending December 3I:.:t, 1922. Owing to six Divisions not having rendered their Annual Returns, the total figures of the strength of the Distric t are rather les this vear; but were the returns macIe the number would be ~reater than la t year. -As the matter stands the total strength consists of I Commissioner, 7 Assistant Commissioners, I District lug-con, 2 COllnty Surgeons, 2 Di trici Ofiicers . 3 Lady District Officer- , I District Sergeant-l\Ia] or, 2 Corps Surgeons, 9 othcr Corps Officers, 53 Divisional Surgeons, If) Di\'isioual Superintendents, 16 Lady Di\'isional Superintendents, 6 Xursing Officers, 50 Amb~11ance Officers, 117 Sergeants and Corporals , 45 -1 Privates, and 337 Ambulance Slsters: a total of 1080 of all ranks. The ambulancc and other work carried on during the past year has been C'xcellent, a total of 7032 ca es of First Aid and cases requiring removal ha\'e been attended to with comrlf'te satisfaction to the patients concerned and to the medi ~a l officers

T HE

AMBULA CE BRI GADE .

atten ding; and 7032 hou rs have been de' otcd by members of Nursing Divisions to Hospital work, Infant Welfare work and assisting D istrict r urses . It is difficult to single out Divisions for praise, as in the larger towns t here is much more scope for usefulness, but T would mention Tunbridge ' Veils, Hove, l\laidstone, Guild ford, Redhill and Reigate, and Hastings, as having the greatest opportunities for carrying out Transport work; and Canterbury, Ramsgate, Teynham, Guildford and Brighton ~ ursing Divisions for engaging in Hospital and Infant Welfare work. " Therever and whenever the work St. John carries on is mentioned it is always with gratitude and enthusiasm; and the self-sacrifice exhibited by members of the Brigade is much to be commended in these pleasure loving days. During the year u nder review, the District Ambulance and Tursing Competitions were carried on as usual: Ramsgate Nursing Divi. ion won the Decies Cup, and Folkestone Nursing Division the secourl Prize. The East. Kellt. Bowl was won by Sittingbourne who also carried off tIle District Trophy, and represented the District in the Dewar Competition, where they were fortunate enough to carry off the Symons Eccles Challenge Cup. The event of the year ,,·as a large combined Church Parade at Canterbury Cathedral on Sunday, October 29th. On this occasion the S. E. &. C. Railway District were invited to parade with the Kent Divisions of Xo. VIII. District, and a muster of nearly Soo members, with two Bands marched to the Cathedral to att<.>nd the afternoon service. Lastly, I must express my grateful thanks to my Staff, and to all the Onicers , on-Commis ioned Officers and :'Icmbers for the loyal way in which the work of the Di strict has been carried out.

Seven new Divisions have been registered: viz., 2 Ambulance (1 in Devon and I in Dorset) 4 I ursing (in Devon), 1 Cadet (in Devon). t'nits in process of formation in Plymouth and District Area are :_ Torpoint (Wilcove Ambulance Section and a ursing Division). 2 .

REPORT OF THE CO~IMISSIO~ER. SIR, I have the honour to submit to you my report of this District for 1911. Generally I am glad to report that all Corps and Divisions throughout the District have made a decided advance all round during the year. A District Staff has now been appointed and I am glad to say they are all shaking down to t.heir various duties. Torfolk, Suffolk, and Herts. have now their respective Assistant. Commissioners, so that Cambridge and Essex still remain with no Assistant Commissioner. The Suffolk Divisions were inspected by yourself on 22nd July, and I do .not think I have anything to add to the information you then gained at t.he Inspechon. I would, however, like to state that your presence at the Inspect.ion has been of considerable use to us in the county and has acted as a district stimulus i? .all Divisions in Suffolk. Personally I have visited and inspected all t.he remalnll1g Divisions in the District. except Cambridge and March. Both these Divisions arc Railway Divisions, and I could not get them to fit a day for inspection. Cam· hridge 'was much cocupied with the Royal Show. For this we undertook t.he Ambulance duty. I sent a squad of men and a detachment of nurses, who stayed there the week of the Show. 'Ve received a letter of thanl~s from the 110\\' Authorities expressing their keen appreciation of onr "very efficient. service<' March I had an opportunity of seeing at the East Anglian Challenge Cup on:PC'b. tion and so excused them as they found it impossible 011 account of Tall dubes to all fall in on any date for inspection . I know them both however to be.e[fic~en1... . The various Nursing Divisions I have inspected and but for finanClal dIfficulbes they could be described as in a flourishing condition. But this question of finance is not only a difficulty with us it is universal. Brigade Day in Ipswich was for the first attempt a success. The proceeds came in very useful and has been used to fill in various gaps in equipment throughout the district. Ipswich was the o~ly centre to hold a Brigade Day. Various delays and excuses came from OUtlYlOg Divisions making it impossible for them to hold days of their own . This year, however I hope somehow that all will manage to hold one even in a small way .. The Ipswich Motor Ambulance has done an enormous amount of work covenng about 8,000 miles. It is an expensive item to run owing to low charges, but somehow it must be kept going as it is an absolute necessity to a large section of East Suffolk. Lowestoft, Colchester and Cromer all run motor ambulances and I am glad to state they run them extremely well and always find men and drivers at any hour. Their charges are very moderate but they manage to just pay their way.

Hitchin was very active in trying to obtain an ambulance and had a considerable press campaign. I joined in and did my utmost but after a time it fizzled out and nothing has come of it. St. Albans is a very efficient Division. It has many items I would like to copy in other Divisions. Hertford has no Division, for some reason it is moribund. I have however asked the Hertford Assistant Commi!':sioner to try and resusitate it. Tring is dead and I have instructed the late secretary to hand over to District Stores all his equipment. This is being done. The whole district is in a far better condition both as regards equipment, uniforms and efficiency than it has been for many years past. In conclusion I want to thank my assistants and staff for their valuable help during the last year. I am greatly indebted to them for great assistance willingly given. (Signed) J. HOSSACK, Commissioner, No. 10 District. To Chief Commissioner.

I have the l:onollr to submit m~T rcport for the year ending 31St December, 19 2 2, and it i'3 with great pleasurc that 1 have to record that the interest in the Brigade throughout th' whole of the S.E. & C.R. District has been well maintained . The total number of Brigade members on the strength of ITO. II District is now o\'er aile thou<;and, whibt no less than 729 are fully equipped with the official uniform of the Brigade. Having in mind that the first Division was only formed in Fcbruary, 1910, it is, I submit, very gratifying that such an exceUent result <;hould h<1,'e becn obtained in slIch a short space of time. The feature of the year's work has been the formation of several Cadet DiVIsions, ancl, here again, means have been found to eCJuip the lads. There is not the least doubt that thi-; education of youths in the advantages of a knowledge of" First Aiel to the Injured," and the work of the Brigade gcnerally, will be the means of securing their allegiance to thc parent Divi'3ions when the time comes for them to pa<;s from youth to manhood. The members of the London Bridgc ~ -ur'3ing Di,-i<;ion have performed meritorious service undcr thc chrection of the Lady uperintendent, ::'I1iss Grindley, who also acts as ecretary for the Association ~ide of the work throughout the Railway. It it; pleasing to me to be able to record that the happiest of relations exist between the members of the Rail,,'ay District and the members of Divi ions in the various towns coming under the jlirisc1ietion of the Commissioners for Nos. I, 2 and 8 Districts, all working together for the common good . I am greatly inc1ebted to all the members of the District Staff for the great help they have arIorded me in carrying out the work of the Di'3trict during the year and shall cvcr bc grateful to Divisional Officers and members of other ranks ·who have clone so much to assist me in maintaining the efficiency of the Brigade and contributing in so large a measure to the success of the District. There IS evcry indication that the coming year will bring with it a large addition to thc membership of the Brigade, and, with the good spirit prevailing throughout all ranks of the various Divisions of the Railway District, I have no fears as to the iuture . I have the honour to be, Sir, Your obedient Servant, (Signed) E. A . RICHARDS, Knight of Grace of the Order of St. John.

R E PORT OF THE COMMI SSIONER. SIR, I have t he honour to submit r eport of my District for 1922 . T he prtst year has proved for us an anxiolls and busy one . Our country is still in a state of war and, also, of a type peculiarly unpleasant having regard to its i n ternecine character. Owing to the very disturbed conditions of the country it was fo u nd almost impossihle to develop Brigade work there and thus ou r only opportunity of helping wrts in the Co. Dublin area. I am pleased, hovvever, to record that our men and women have done well, seizing every opportunity, and there h8ve been many, of rendering assistance to street casu alties in ambushes, fires, explosions from land mines and from gunshot wounds . During the hostilities in June and July, before and after what is called the " Battle of the Four Courts," our people acted with great devotion and efficiency, establishing First Aid Dres:-;ing Stations in the zone of hostilities, patrolling the hullet swept streets, and organising an Ambulance Transport service . I have already fully dealt with this anxious time in a special report, so need ('nly add that about T, 0 Brigade members took duty with about 50 yolunteers and over 25 0 casualties, many of them fatal or yerv serious, were treated during ten days of fic'rce fighting.

A paid orderly IS on duty from 9 a.m. tn 6 p.m., when the orclinary volunteer members take duty till midnight. The~e Huts, after the exren~e of equipment, have cost us about 1350. :'Tost of the theatres and picture houses were staffed by our Ambulance t;.1en and from these points they rushed out whenever firing was heard in the vicinity, rendering useful work and co-operating with the Dublin Fire Brigade Ambulance men. ~Iany cases (If great galJantry have been reported to me and I may say hardly a week prtsses without some action of outstanding merit b eing recorded.

THE

ST.

JOl-IN

Our Ambulance T r ansport Service has done excellent and useful work chiefly among-st the poor. 248 C2.ses were carried. Om \Velfare Department and Di!::tricl: ursing Service has given considerable assistance to many cases of de titution and in this duty we have worked in liaison with the St. Vincent de Paul Society with which organisation we have had very cordial relations. Our Officers have continued to organise and take charge of the Hospital Supply Depot which meets at 40, lenion Square. About 100,000 dressings were made ann distributed to the City hospitals. but more particularly to the Queen Victoria J ubilee Turses who work amongst the very poor throughout Ireland. The Irish Ambulallce Gazette-our official organ - was started in January, 1922, ann bas appeared quarterly. It has proved a source of interest to our members and the public generally. \Ve are much indebted t o ou r Assistant Commissioner, Colonel R. J. Blackham, its Editor and Originator. In December, a v ery successful Flag Day Appeal was held on 1st, 2nd and 3[('1 ; the organiser being Lady Corps Supt. ~lrs. Shanks. The result has been eminently satisfactory and a very su b stantial sum has been r ealised for the Brigade. \Vhile appreciating this great financial help we ha\'e all been deeply impressed anel much encouraged by the ltind and sympathehc spIrit with ,,-Ill h our appeal has been r eceived by the citizens of all hades of opinion and creeds; pro\'ing how slIccessful we have been in establishing our DisLrict as a neutral body ready to help eVl'ryol1e. no matter who. That we have thus gained the confidence of the enttre cummunity is a matter for congratulation and will, I am confident, lead us on t o greater things and a further expansion of our work in th e new Ireland when peace comes, which we all so much look forward to. The unhappy state of affairs in Ireland has given us a great chance which I am proud to say our men and women have riscll to in a manner worthy of the J)es t traditions of the Brigade and the Order. I must be excused If I conft:ss how proud I am to command such a body of efficien t, enthusiastic and gallant collcagu ~ . To my magnificent and loyal District Statf lowe morc tha!1 I can expre's and It is to their untiring and de\'oted zeal we are indebted for the good work we h,l\"C I.ad th e privilege of accomplishing. The work done for ex-Service men and their famille.;; has been ac(~ompli lH.:d in co-operation with the British R ed Cross Society under thc JOInt 'olUllllUee. illos t of the help given has been in connection wilh our Orthoprcclic Clinics, til IIo:-,tel for pensioners undergoing treatment, the Limbless D epartmcllt and the Em 'rgLllCy Red Cross Committee. Up to the end of 1922, about £8,000 has been distributed in grants and loans to ex-soldiers or their famihe:> and in our Orthoprcclic Clinics about half a million treatments have been given, mas~age, electncal treatment, Ionization, Radiant Heat, \Yax treatment , remedial exerci:>cs, and H.aclium treatment. Particulars of this work are embodied in a separate report to tilt' Joint Commi ttee of St. John and British R ed Cross Society. In conclusion, although und esirou s of mentioning names when so many did w ell , I must specially men tion th e ~ervices of our DistIict ecretarics, :'\Ir. A. J. Connor and Miss E . F. Blandford; my District Lady Supt . Dr. Ella ,\'ebb and my A ' istant Commissioner, Mr. \V . G.

The abo\'e totals comprise the following Units: Corp" 22 \mbulance Dl\'isions 142 ur~ing Divisions 54 /Jrigllue DlIty.-Constant calls are made upon the Brigade men and nurses fo r pu blic duty and their attendance at shows, races, matches, and on all occasions when personal safety is hazarded, has become commonplace. The Priory was recentJv called upon by the L\Iatron of the City Lodge Infinnary for qualified assistants to supplement the :t\ursing Staff during a particularly strenuous period, and the members of the Cardiff Division responded commendably. Brigade C({J}/p.-A Brigade Camp of Instruction is being organised this year and we hope to hold it in conjunction with the 53rd (\\Telsh) Division of the Territorial .\rmy at Porthcawl in August Bank Holiday week. 216 officers and men arc to come to Camp and there is no doubt that a very interesting and helpful week's training will be arranged. Cadet Divisions.-~Tew impetus has been given to Brigade work in the establishment of Cadet Divisions . Creditable advantage has been taken of this and I am pleased to report that one Cadet Division has been established, four have been provisionally formed, and others are now in course of formation . Ambttlance Confeyences .-The introduction of Ambulance and Nursing Conferences as a means of stimulating interest, has been well justified, Durin g the year conferences 'were held at Pontypridd, Newport, Llanelly, Swansea, Cardiff and .l.

\Vrexham . 8.nd the results have more than compensated our efforts. It is my intention to arrange for similar conferences during the present year, and so propagate the work in all parts of the Principality. Garden Party.-Ambulance workers in the ounty of Cannarthen 'were sped ally invited in August la t to a Garden Party kindly given at Coomb by the Rt. Hon. Lord Eylsant on the occasion of the visit of ILl-I. Princess ilIarie Louise. Over 2.00 of our members availed themseh'es of this great pleasure and a very happy tIme was spent. Jlotor Ambulance Transport Service.- The il1otor Ambulance Transport service continues to make excellent progress. The slench in rease in the number of patients carried shows that the value of the sen icc IS more keenly reali sed and that advantage is taken of the facilities offered. Each car has its own garage and is .available for immediate service at any time of the day or night on application bell1g made by telephone or otherwise to the nearest Police Station. The cars are able now to obtain. upplies of petrol at any Depot \\hich i-. a valuable concession, especially on long distance journeys. Tl1<' demand for the C'stahlishment of new S.tation - is rapidly i,:creasing, and everv effort is being made to mcet tho applicatIons . The cars carned for the year 1105 ca'iV'; n di:;tance of 36.~, ().~ miles.
