Clarke High School Assists The student council of Clarke High School has _ financially "adopted" Dolores S, Lesignes, an ll-year-olds Filipino girl through the Foster Parents' Plan, Montreal. The council has promised to 'contribute $16 a month for the child's support for at least a year. In addition monthly letters are being received from over- seas, both original and transla- tion. In them a foster child may describe how it feels sud- denly to liave shoes, a mattress to sleep on instead of a dirt floor and the comfort of a full stomach. The sponsor also receives reports on school pro- gress. Letters from the fos- ter parent, both original and translation, are treasured, Often they tell about life in Can- ada. Letters are exchanged monthly. Elibigility is determined by need and the ability to benefit. This means that every child must go to school, The plan's purpose is to guide a fos- ter child toward econimic dependence and_ subsequent the responsibility for his fam- ily and service in his country. $8 CASH GRANT Of the $16 monthly that the foster parent agrees to contrib- ute for at least a year, the child receives $8 a month as a cash grant. The rest is spent for food and new clothing, medi- cal care, school fees and equip- ment, and translations of let- Easter Seals ; Rid Crippled Just a few years ago approxi mately one-third of Ontario's crippled children could not take full advantage of the techniques that had been developed to help them overcome their handicaps They were the children who lived outside those areas where treatment centres were estab- lished.
