TODAY!$ CHILD
BY HELEN ALLEN
Here is Brian, 'almost a year old, who needs a
mother and father. While he waits to be adopted he is
living in a foster Dome with six children so he is
accustomed to a lot of attention. He would do well in a
family where there would be brothers and sisters to play
with him. Brian'ssolemn look is because he didn't know
the photographer. With familiar people he is happy and
good-natured. Of French and German background, Brian
Is a large -boned, sturdy boy with big blue eyes, thick
wavy auburn hair, fair skin and rosy cheeks. He is alert
and inquisitive, obviously understanding everything said
to him. There is mental illness in his mother's family
and asthma in his background, but the baby himself is
in excellent health. He needs parents who will not be
concerned over this medical history or about limited
information on . his father. To inquire about adopting
Brian please write to Today's Child, Department of Social
and Family Services, Parliament Buildings, Toronto 5.

Replace mama pig
An automatic sow — a
mechanical device which
substitutes for mania pig and
permits weaning newborn pigs at
six to eight hours of age could
revolutionize hog raising, A
Nebraska hog raiser is currently
using the device to save pigs
from large litters and from sows
with milking problems. The
producer claimed that improved
diets and know-how would allow
production of 50 -pound pigs in
50 days with no runts. It would
likely also increase the
percentage servival rate at
weaning.
Red meat production in 1968
amounted to 2.6 billion pounds,
enough for 130 pounds for each
Canadian.

Use safety
belt safely
Pregnant wgm4n often
epquire if wearing a safety belt
might be damaging to the
unborn child, in the event of a
crash, Doctors reply that a pelt
wgrn rQrrectly cannot hurt the
child, andmothers-to-be have
particular reason to be belted in
at all times. The right position is
for the .belt to be comfortable
snug and as low as possible, so
that in the event of abrupt stop
the strain is takers on the strong
pelvic hopes.
The Ontario Safety League
reports that this medical opinion
is now to be tested by actual
experimentation. The University
of Oklahoma Medical School
plans to crash -test pregnant
baboons late this yea,', Both
mother and foetus will be
checked to determine what
damage, if any, was sustained
using lap belts, and also
combination seat -and -shoulder
belts.
A patient pedestrian is better
than a pedestrian patient.
