Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Every Day's a Busy Day to Barbara Sime, but she wouldn't have it any other way. Children and the arts are what keep her busy. And both are very special. The children are adopted one Negro, one colored, one Japanese Canadian and one born in England. All the children take great interest in Barbara's other interest, helping her husband running his arts school near Orangeville, set up in 1962.
