Tuesday evening was our regul- ar film night. The films shown during the evening \%rere "Scot- land" and "Scottish Dances." We were very pleased to have had Mrs. Orville Storey, of Seaforth who teaches dancing there. She brought with her some of her students who are particul- arly interested in the Highland Dances. These young ladies de- lighted the audience with the different numbers which they presented. We are indeed indebted to Mrs. Storey for bringing along Miss Susan Langloise, of Brussels, Miss Lorraine Laing, of Cromarty Miss Nancy Jean Fanson, of Mitchell and Miss Sheri Storey, of Seaforth. Nelson Howe, of Cromarty was also present with his bagpipes, and needless to say, had several toes a -tapping to the skirl of the pipes. One of our residents, John Donald, a staunch Scotsman, and a native of Scotland, had an opportunity to reminisce, as the films presented familiar scenes of his childhood and young manhood, and the numer- ous Scottish dances, some of which are familiar to most of us. Mr.. Donald has high hopes of visiting his homeland next year, and all of us here at the Home are hoping that he will be bles- sed with the health and strength so that his wish can be fulfulled. Mrs. Verda Welsh was our only resident with a birthday during the past week. On Thurs- day evening, the ladies of the Grand Bend Women's Institute sponsored the monthly birthday party. The residents thoroughly enjoyed the program they pres- ented as well as the delicious cake and ice cream which they served.
