Old People Can Remain Home While RI With VON
TORONTO.—Many elderly people, who have a chronic illness
have been able to remain in their homes where they are hap­
pier, because a I .O.N. nurse is calling- regularly to give essential
nursing- care. Their families too are receiving- support from the.
visits of this profesional nurse and this has often been the factor
which makes it possible for them to keep the patient at home.
You can arrange for the services of a nurse who understands
the problems of the aged, just call the Metropolitan Toronto Branch
of rhe Victorian Order of Nurses at 363-5621. A participant in the
United Appeal. —V.O.X.

TORONTO.-—Preparations for the National Ballet’s exciting
trip to Osaka, Japan for Expo ’70 in May are now underway.
The company will perform during Canada Week and will give
a special performance on Canada Day accompanied by the RCMP
band. The National Ballet has the additional honor of being the
only ballet company in the world to perform at the international
fair.
The National Ballet of Canada will present two programs —
Romeo and Juliet and a mixed program including Four Tempera­
ments, Le Loup and Solitaire.
Everyone is looking- forward to it and many dancers are now
reading up on Japanese history, culture and language.
Close to 76.000 people attended performances by the National
Ballet of Canada in Toronto and Ottawa during the months of
November and December.
