Large Family Has Reunion Dinner At Quebec Farm

The video highlights the Marquis family, who have 14 sons and six daughters. Sixteen of their children work on their Canadian farm, which is a model of war production. The farm produces home-churned butter and home-baked bread to support Canadian soldiers. The family hosts an outdoor banquet to welcome four soldier sons home for a brief reunion. Despite the abundance of food, sugar rationing and military duties will soon resume, with hopes for a future victory reunion in Quebec.
