Old Folks' Birthday
Two residents at Alexandra Home recently celebrated their birthdays. Mrs E. M. Tennent was 91, and Mr A. J. Boon was 95. And, since they are grand ages to reach, a birthday party was held to celebrate.
The matron at the home, Mrs P. Reay, and Mrs I. Wratt appear to be sharing a joke
