99-year-old volunteer keeps going
 
A woman not far short of her hundredth birthday is an active volunteer at the Montreal General, in a testimony either to the value of keeping active, or the luck of inheriting the right genes.

And the practice of young society women coming out wasn't "quaint" – it was a pragmatic means of finding someone to marry your grown daughters and take them off your hands.)
