Original Toronto Star caption: Gift of food: This old woman; squatting in a street in Calcutta; devoured a bit of bread given to her by one of the workers surrounding Mother Teresa. Like thousands of others in the huge; sweltering city of 12 million people; she has no home. A tin pot; a bowl; the clothes she wears are all that she can hope to own.
