Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Dining Rooms at the nursing home are decorated with bright colors. Tables accommodate two; four or six residents with waitress service for each table. Elderly people prefer hot soup with meals and a sweet desert such as pie or cake. Portion sizes are kept small because people's appetites decrease as they get older.

      Yesterday's rain didn't help matters but Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Boylen came prepared with an umbrella. The ball was great success with new and old friends getting a chance to meet. The club was elaborately decorated for the occasion with 4,000 roses adding a touch of color.
