NEW AMBULANCE PRESENTED TO ST. JOHN BRIGADE Exterior and interior views of the new ambulance which was presented to the St. John Ambulance Association by the late Mr F. H. King, in memory of his wife, Mrs Helen M. King. The ambulance Is low-slung and designed particularly for sickness cases, although it can also be adapted for accident cases. It holds two stretchers, with a spare stretcher stowed away in a locker, is well lighted, both by windows and artificial lighting, and has ample accommodation for an attendant and for medical supplies. Unlike most ambulances, it is finished internally in a walnut veneer, and all metal parts are of chrome. The ambulance has just been handed over and will go into service to-day.
