a

rii&rttnto
of
the
50th
annivesary
which
the
Victorian
Qrder
of

is
celebrating
this

'

by
John

Gibbon,
this
history
of
the
order
not
only
is
of
particular
value
to
V.O.N,
rn&xibers
but
also
to
student9
of
Canadian
history.
In
its
half
century
of
life
the
development,
of
the
ojjjei
has
invariably
became
interwoven
with
the
growth
of
this
country.
)
Pictures
of
early
and
modern
nurses
and
their
work
make
up
a
good
deal
of
this
124-page,
V.O.N,
record.
Portraits
also
appear
of
the
women
who
ft&ifed
the-
organization.
There
is
one
of
Charlotte
Macleod,
its
first
chief
superintendent
and
of
several
early
V.O.N,
executives.
A
page
also
is
devoted
to
pictures
of
the
wives
of
Canada's
governors-general
who
down
through
trM'yars
have
sponsored
the
order.
The
first
was
Countess

of

foster-mother
of

pvrityft
Mr.
Gibbon.
"The
idea
of
a
district
visiting-nursing
service
as
suitable
for
the
prairies
was"
"
suggested
to
her
in
Vancouver
in
1896
.
.
."
'the
road
was
far
from
smooth
in
those
early
days
of
the
order,
and
in
spite
of
rigid
economics,
the
V.O.N.
found
it
hard
to
pay
its
way.
In
1924
Lady
Byng
issued
an
appeal
by
letter
for
contributions
"not
as
a
capital
fund,
but
for
extension
of
the
order's
work
for
a
period
of
three
years."
She
raised
$27,347
before
the
end
of
the
year,
"less

had
been
hoped
for."
It
-was
not
until
1945
that
"under
the
magie

of
J.
W.

the

There
was
the

when

L
EXPERIENCES
(W.
J.
R.)
In
the
years
before
great
wars
afflicted
the
earth,
one
could
far
away.
One
could
not
seriously
think
of
a
threat
of
Invasion.
It
had
been
almost
a
century
since
Napoleon's
troops
at
BoulogneJust
over
there
were
a
source
of
some
concern.
Water
loo
was
fought
away,
away
back,
There
were
convalescents,
however,
drifting
around.
Discharged
from
hospital
and
strangers
in
England,
they
enjoyed
hospitality
and
daily
took
on
weight.
It
was
a
great
life.
Some
lived
like
lords
In
a
roomy,
substantial
old
residence
In
Dover
with
lawns
and
gardens
looking
out
across
the
strait
to
Calais,
21
miles
distant.
Our
butler
was
an
old
soldier
himself.
He
knew
all
the
answers.
In
fair
weather,
the
misty
shores
of
France
are
visible.
Chalk
cliffs
are
there,
as
well.
The
story
of
Dover
would
take
a
lengthy
time
in
the
telling
if
contributed
ships
and
men
to
the
defence
of
the
King's
realm.
The
ancient
castle,
from
a
J
height
of
about
350
feet,
overlooks
the
tide
as
well
as
busy
streets
and
attractive
homes.
The
venerable
and
modern
are
never
very
far
apart.
And
somewhere,
one
seems
to
recall,
a
military
band
plays
part
of
each
day.
,One
morning
a
chance
friend
from
Australia
and
the
writer
crossed
to
Calais
and
lunched
in
the
dock
cafe,
accepting
white
wine
as
a
welcome
refresher.
The
town
is
just
another
nam:
for
history.
The
streets,
as
they
appeared
then
and
doubtless
appear
today,
were
cobbled
and
winding.
Sidewalks
would
hardly
permit
two
to
pass.
Church
bells
seemed
to
be
always
chiming.
Shops
were
small;
the
display
windows
cramped
and
That
