there are 79 in this one suit without buttons aim of one inmate another demands red patches on new trousers the old peoples home on yonge street maintained by the county of york comes up for annual discussion at county coun cil and the report presented this year by reeve cook of aurora was a particularly well prepared docu ment it revealed the fact that there are 70 inmates in the home 4s men and 31 women the average age of the men is 71 years and of the 31 women their average age is 71 there were five persons discharged during the year and 12 admitted to residence eight persons died during the year practically all the inmates at the home are in receipt of the pen sion but the county claim the cheques each month in payment for their keep with the exception of 55 which is allowed each of the elderly guests for their own use clothing meals reading matter including papers magazines and books are supplied in abundance and good warm quarters hence there is little to spend the 5 on other than a few personal things even candy and gifts are brought to the old folks at odd times by organizations and the county supply the men with tobacco persons who are not in fair health according to standards of elderly people are not admitted to the home as it is not a hospital however when one of the residents becomes ill they are taken care ofl and sent to hospital if necessary and returned to the home when recovery is made there is usually a dozen or more unable to come to the dining hall for meals who must be served in bed church services are held regu larly conducted by various minis ters representing different denom inations and visiting days are standard so that persons may see old friends likewise they may take the elderly occupant to their home for any period of days which is a treat many enjoy the home has 130 acres of land and a fine herd of cattle poultry and other stock the old people who are able are given a share in the work gardening and such like in summer that they really like to do all in all its a great family with major and mrs sprague at the helm and their task is no easy one you may be sure old people have strange ways persistent and deter mined such as the elderly chap who insists in cutting every button off his clothing and this goes for a brand new suit too then there is the chap who wants a red patch on his trousers so the first thing he does when he gets a new pair from the store room is to get away in a corner cut a hole and place the red ensign on it after all it could be a safety measure if the old fellow does much walking on yonge street there is an odd person who does not hear well and wants the radio at thunder pitch against the wishes of a mild spoken old fellow who just does not like noise these and many more are problems for major and mrs sprague but they settle them so diplomatically county officials hear little or no complaint at all jap war criminals sentenced to hang stouffville machine tool works telephone 253
