Monday, January 17th's old tyme music session saw
Mrs. Mary Taylor, who plays the mouth organ, absent.
However, though Mrs, Taylor was missed, Mr. Norman
Speir and Miss Della peart handled the unexpected in-
convenience very capably.
On Wednesday, entertainment for the monthly birthday
party was provided by the Huronview Ladies Auxiliary
with Mrs. Colclough serving as master of ceremonies.
A great variety of numbers highlighted the program. A
sing song of a few old tyme favourites got the party off
on the right foot and the whistling solos and step dance
by Mrs. D. Heard and Mrs. D. Sutcliffe respectively fit
the atmosphere and pattern of the program perfectly. The
most unusual and very evidently enjoyed by the130 residents
and guest in attendance were the dancing numbers pro-
vided by Miss Sylvia. Wilson. Showing her dexterity
she performed an Irish jig, three Scottish numbers and a
sailor's hornpipe. Her time and effort was very much
appreciated by everyone. As a change of pace, Mr. Erlin
Whitmore sang two well-loved religious songs, "The Old
Rugged Cross" and "Beautiful Garden of Prayer", Round-
ing out the entertainment portion of the program in appro-
priate style was a quartette of Mrs. McMicel, Mrs. Nevens,
Mrs. Heard and Mr. Whitmore singing "Beautiful Isle of
Somewhere". Mrs. Alicia Leyburne expressed gratitude,
on behalf of the audience, to all those involved in the
presentation. Immediately following, gifts were presented
by the Auxiliary to all those residents who celebrated their
birthday in January. A luncheon, composed of tea and cup-
cakes concluded the party, making the entire affair a very
.tremendous success.
There was no Thursday night program. However, every-
one is looking forward to Bobby Burns night with Jim Laurie
on Thursday, January 27th.
