Original Toronto Star caption: Highway residents do their part. Along the Lakeshore highway approaching Oakville from east and west; residents have entered the gay spirit evident by eleborately decorating their homes. The residence of Ryland H. New; on the south side of the highway just east of the town; again stands out as one of the most colorful; with beautiful decorations; both at the stately entrance gates and at the front of the house. The display by residents and the town officially is an annual attraction for tourists.
