Golden Glimpses . .
Although we are getting
well into May, the time of
spring flowers, old Jack Frost
is still persisting in keeping
things on the cool side. I am
sure we are all hoping that the
blossoms and gardens will not
suffer too much.
Monday was our lass showing
of films until the fall season
when the daylight hours shorten.
The residents miss film night
but perhaps sometime in the
future we will be able to repl-
ace our present drapery in. that
area with something that will
darken the room sufficiently
to show the films year around.
VsTe wish to thank all who were
so co-operative in assisting us
with our transportation of films
to and from Goderich.
The sympathy of residents
and staff is extended to the
family of the late Mrs. Laura
Ings, in her 93rd year. She
was one of our faithful craft
room workers and made the
crazy patch cushions and quilts
which were so popular.
On Wednesday evening, the
Ladies Auxiliary held their
