This, you will recall, was the explanation given by our Director of Homes for the Aged - Office on Aging Branch, Mrs. Lawrence Craw- ford, in response to your question before the Committee, on October 22nd, I973, particular- ly page SI937 of the Debates for that day in the Standing Committee on Supply. I am sure that you will be pleased with this development which, as we indicated was being worked on, and will convey the news to the Town of Terrace Bay Municipal representatives. I am sharing copies of my correspondence with the present District Board of Management for Homes for the Aged in Thunder Bay, as well, and our Regional Administrator, Mr. M.L. Grav- er.

TODAY'S CHILD BY HELEN ALLEN yr EE THE TORONTO SJ] SYNDICATE The summer was a good time for George. He got a sleeping bag for his 12th birthday and since he loves to camp, he was sleeping out at every opportunity. Baseball and swimming are favorite warm weather activities for George but he doesn't mourn over winter because he likes hockey too. Anglo-Saxon in descent, George is a good-looking boy with brown hair, hazel eyes and medium complexion. He is in good health. He is shy on first meetings but has a pleasant per- sonality. George is in Grade six where his work is slightly below average. He says he wants to be a mechanic. Besides sports, he has a variety of interests. He builds models and enjoys movies and TV with western and suspense themes. (A current favorite is Kung Fu.) George chooses pop music for listening. He has a good voice and likes to sing in the church choir and at Sunday School. He would like to live in the country and to have older brothers and sisters. What George needs most is acceptance and love, a family who enjoys doing things together and the security of a planned and consistent home life. To inquire about adopting George, please write to Today's Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2. For general adoption information please contact your local Children's Aid Society.
