Parents and businessmen are further further advised to beware of child identification clinics that have in the past year solicited funds' through promotional campaign blitzes in many communities, in cluding large cities and smallei "towns. ' The OPP has found that some community child identification v ~ .clinics have ties with certain publications which sell advertising space to companies and retail businesses* I Or a fee of $25 to ' $1,500, by appealing to their sense of corporate goodwill.
