Original Toronto Star caption: Mayor tootles for St. Pat. It was St. Patrick's Day and Mayor William Dennison got his Irish up enough to don a shamrock-green hat and trill an Irish tune on a tin flute for members of the Nevada Show Band, who'd turned up to serenade the mayor at City Hall. After a few bars, the mayor danced an Irish jig with Eileen Kelly, colleen at left.
