Sister K. H. Bowder, A.A.N.S., after nearly three years' service in India, Persian Gulf, and Afghanistan arrived home on March 3. Local residents in spite of the wet, nicely decorated the station, and Councillor J. McNab on behalf of those assembled as well as for those who were not aware of the event, gave her a hearty welcome home. Sister Bowder was met by her father at Landsborough, but her mother being unfortunately not in sufficiently good health to accompany him, awaiting the arrival of her soldier daughter at home. Sister Bowder proposes having a quiet time at home for a few weeks before again taking up the activities of her profession. She has brought home glowing accounts of the work of the British troops in Mesopotamia, a nice collection of Indian curios, and a most interesting account of the present state of affairs in the old country, where she spent two months furlough.
