Dr. Charles Roberts of the Montreal Verdun Hospital was the guest speaker. In his ad- dress, Dr. Roberts praised the work of the volunteers, and he reminded members of CMHA that there had been great progress made in the field of mental health. In the early days, there were no volunteers and no special services for the patients. Dr. Roberts said, “White Cross Volunteers have the important func- tion of being a bridge between the home and the hospital.” He further stated that the volunteers were especially qualified because they are not motiv- ated to make a living. So the opportunity for the patient to leave the hospital rests with the White Cross Volunteer, who helps to familiarize the patient with the community. He advises against screening or training volunteers, because one can get to know so much that it becomes difficult to work with people. “The trouble,” said Dr. Roberts, “is that there are not nearly enough volunteers.” One of the greatest missions of White Cross Volunteers is to bring other volunteers into the fold. He also suggested that vol- unteers could help build up pressure in their commun- ities with the view of securing more interest and better financial support for the very important cause of mental health. There was an interesting panel discussion on “Points of View Toward Volunteer Work.” The mod- erator of the panel was Miss Joan Hollobon, medical reporter for the Globe and Mail. Among the members of the panel were Mr. G. A. Gamble of Unionville, dir- ector of information services. National office, CMHA, and Mrs P. Townshend-Carter who discussed the ach- ievements of the individual White Cross Volunteer. White Cross Volunteers of CMHA all over On- tario, attended a rally in the Salada Tea Gardens, Exhibition Park, in Toronto, Saturday, November 4th. Those attending from the York County Branch of CMHA were President Mrs. P. Townshendâ€"Carter, Executive Secretary Mrs. Donald Strickland, and Volunteer Chairman Mrs. R. L. Moore. ..from Thornhill; Chairman of Volunteers at the Aurora Hospital Mrs. Iris Jankowiak, and Mrs. R. H. O’Cal- laghan, head of the transport division . . . from Rich- mond Hill, and Mrs. W_ J.
