fcFiil8 The Newmarket Era and Express Thursday Feb 1951 r ss By Isabel SUNSET DAYS Marian Martin Who has not watched with joy approaching awe a glorious sunset There may be a golden lake sur rounded by a purple strand there may be towers and pinnacles of gold a preview of the Celestial City or there be a vast garden of flowers find yourself holding your breath as the glory fades and nature drops her grey or violet star studded curtain between us and the vision I always think that old age is like those sunsets if a beautiful life illumines the frail forms and a thousand memories look out from fading eyes I suppose bs- my lived to a ripe old age and because that in our home we were taught that res pect for age was a cardinal I have loved old peo ple To do anything for them is a joy so I am always delighted when we go over to York County Home Our Institute trav elled over there on Friday and we received a very wel come from Mr and Mrs Arnold and then we wen in the chapel among those whom the sunset glow has touched After being introduced by Mr Arnold we put on a shrt pro gram Solo The Stranger of Galilee by Mrs Fletcher read ing Aunt Jerushas Will by Mrs Penrose solo A Bird in Ifand

a reading Tale of a Mouse by Mrs Williams and by re quest Tommy Atkins sung by your scribe Mrs A Penrose our president acted as chairman and Mrs A Ridley as accompanist After the National Anthem Mr Arnold thanked us and invited us to re turn Mrs Penrose and Sirs distributed fruit candy and magazines which were received with pleasure Mrs Arnold and Chum the and friendly old Spaniel escorted us through the rest of the home We were particularly struck with the warm sunny sitting rooms and hospital Ev eryone seemed glad to see us and have a little chat We had little Alberta Ridley and Diane and Linda Fletcher with us and they made a place for themselves at once We were touched to see Alber ta go and put her wee hand in that of a white haired lady whom we found was blind What we wondered was what lovely in stinct told the child to do to this woman what she had learn ed to do with her own blind grandmother Then there was the comic touch that always seems to creep in One of the women gave Alberta a candy and her mother and I caught a glimpse of Chum trying sociab ly to share lick about with her There was a Miss Howiett who did some lovely and embroidery Every thing was spotless and cheerful the only drawback we were told was the cold dining rooms and I think we will all admit its no fun to eat in a chilly place I liked the attitude of the resi dents toward Mr and Mrs Arn old they turned to them as to sympathetic and understanding friends It is nice from what I hear that York County Home is thought of just at Christ mas and put into the limbo of forgotten things for another year know that Newmarket Institute goes regularly and I trust that we and many others may do the same Kettleby A Hears Of Life The Womens Association of the United church met at the home of
