It is said ‘Behind every successful man is a woman , going on the assumption this is true then the Norâ€" thwestern General Hospital as a whole should be very successful as they have a Ladies‘ Auxiliary who work very hard and take great pains to do their job well. The latest venture of the Ladies‘ Auxiliary was their Annual Patroness Tea, held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Oelbaum on Alexandra â€" Wood, Wedâ€" nesday, June 9. Apâ€" proximately 300 guests atâ€" tended on a weatherwise perfect day and were served refreshments in the Oelbaum‘s gracious home, out in their tiered garden or sitting around the pool. One of the highlights of the tea was a fashion shown by Alan Cherry from his Yonge and Bloor St. salon. The models walked among the guests showing lovely Summer attire, stopping to talk and answer questions in regard to the garment being worn. A large serving tray by Carla Foytenyi and a still life oil painting by Maria Ardizzi were given as door prizes. The event ran smoothly and with such efficiency that no one would know the great amount of work put into a project of this type. All the ladies are to be congratulated on such a fine effort. Many of the doctors wives and members of the auxiliary took their turn at pouring and serving guests. Amongst those who gave their time also was Mrs. Serio Angelletti, wife of Dr. Angelletti, Italian Consulate General, Mrs. Phil White, wife of Borough of York Mayor and Mrs. Ron Barâ€" Through events such as the tea, which raised apâ€" proximately $5,400.00, and other moneyâ€"making events, the hospital expansion campaign is assisted.

Those who attended regularly were recognized for their consistency in atâ€" tendance and participation.

"zâ€" _ York * â€"Central These June days many school classes are taking trips to parks or historical land marks around and beyond Toronto. One of these trips was made by a group of grade eight students from Kane Sr. School‘s French class. The students left at 9:30 in the morning on June 10 and were encouraged to converse in French as much as possible during the day. It was felt the informal atâ€" mosphere of the island and the different environment would lead to a wide variety of topics and situations to be discussed in French by the students. Also, classes from C.E. Webster Junior School are taking trips, some to the Island, others to High Park. When the children visited High Park they had an adâ€" ditional treat in going by bus and subway. Some of these children had never been on the subway before and it was really something to hear their comments. Some had never been to High Park and would not believe there were animals like buffalos or lamas until they actually saw them. As an adult, the pleasure of going on these trips with the kids is a treat as you see things in a difâ€" ferent light than when you go for your own pleasure.
