Easter Treats For Shut-ins By Jumee Auxiliary Group
About 25 shut-ins in Rockwood received Easter treats Saturday from members of the Jumee Auxiliary of St. Johns Anglican church. The girls and leaders Mrs Arthur Ewers and Mrs Ernest Shipp made cards to accompany gift baskets filled with goodies. They visited the shut-ins, bringing joy and a lesson in helping others. The group also pursues a “name quilt” project, keeping the girls busy and giving them purposes. The note mentions early Canadian theatre history with a Toronto-built first slecne, but the connection is unclear in the text.
