One enterprising grandmother in the community decided to take on the Santa Claus parade chore for her: grandchildren this year. Re- fusing to undergo the wild drive amid the morning traffic on the Q.E. highway, she engaged a sampleroom at the Royal York hotel, had beds for six children put in it--and then had another one added for herself.
