Original Toronto Star caption: 100 candles: Neighbors and friends lend their lungs to the task of blowing out the candles on Eunice Jones' 100th-birthday cake yesterday; while Jones herself thoughtfully tastes the icing. Jones should be a good judge; having spent most of her 100 years cooking and serving food.
