THE, TORONTO SYNDICATE Donald looks wistful and no wonder. In his eight years, this young lad has suffered rejection more than _once, so he must often wonder, when he meets Peeples what their attitude will be, Because Donald really wants to belong to a family, be is en- thusiastic about the idea of adoption. But he is anxious tee, Will any POP/0 want me? And if they do, will they keep on wanting .me? For Donald's sake let us hope for warmly affirmative answers to both questions very soon. Donald is a pleasant, friendly boy doing well in scbool, He speaks clearly, expresses himself well and is a good reader, He is not So good at writing and drawing though he is improving. His teacher says he has good potential, Anglo-Saxon in descent, Donald is small in stature with blue eyes, light brown hair and fair skin, His smile shows, deep dimples. He wears glasses for. near-sightedness. Donald is strong and healthy, a recently discovered heart murmur having been diagnosed as not significant. This good-natured, kind youngster is always willing to help anybody. His foster parents say he is mischievous but only in a normal eight-year-old way and is easily disciplined: He gets on well with children and with adults too once he feels he knows them, Donald needs a mother and father who will welcome him and love him and help him learn that family relationships can last. It is especially important that the adopting father values family activities and wants to spend a lot of time with his son, . To inquire about adopting Donald, please write to Today's Child, Ministry of Community and Social Services, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2112.

A sorceress helped Blimp° get thin so he could marry the beautiful princess Caroline. But when he got back to the palace, Caroline was fat! She was so worried while he was gone, that she ate and ate. "I can't marry you now," she sobbed. Blimp° took her to the sorceress' cottage. But the sorceress was gone! "The Wicked Wizard took her to his castle," said the mirror on the wall. Blimp° and Caroline set' out to rescue her. They took along a First-Aid kit from the shelf. They walked miles and miles through the forest. They climbed up the mountain. But there was a moat around the castle wall, Blimpo opened the First Aid kit, and the roll of cotton started to swell. It carried them right up over the castle walls. They slipped into the castle, A monster animal was guarding the Wizard's door. It slashed at them. But it bumped its paw and started to howl. Caroline sprayed some medicine from the First-Aid kit on the monster's paw. "That's the nicest thing anyone ever did for me," said the monster.

There was the sorceress, in a trance on the ,..bed. The Wicked Wizard was bending over her. Blimp° and Caroline quickly wrapped him up in adhesive tape. Then they woke up the sorceress with smelling salts. "How can I help you?" asked the sor- ceress. "Make me thin again!" Caroline begged. "But you are thin, my dear," she said. And after the long journey through the forest and up the mountain, it was true! Copyright 0 AVS Technical Services, 1974.

Gary Tebbutt and his cousin Gregory Tebbutt of St, Catharines flew from Toronto to Calgary where they spent two weeks visiting with Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Tebbutt and family, Wayne (Gary's brother) was on a few days holidays from his job in the oil fields in northern Alberta and took the boys sight-seeing, They spent some time at the Stampede. Banff National Park was an in- teresting place to visit, They took a bath in the Hot Springs, had a cable car ride, and went scrambling on the mountains. The Horseman Hall of Fame, a zoo,. Bowness Park (Amusement) and Heritage Park, (a pioneer life village) were alt worth while places to spend your time. David and Robin Lobb spent a week at their grandparents in Toronto. They also went to visit their aunt and uncle and family at Oshawa, While there they went to the Sands Banks Provincial Park. Murray and Robe Lobb recently enjoyed a trip to' Alberta. Good weather made it excellent for camping as well as sight seeing. Travelling through Manitoba and Saskatchewan they enjoyed the beautiful and well-kept government camp- sights. In Alberta they stopped briefly at the Calgary Stampede and then went north to Edmon- ton, Here they spent an 'in- teresting afternoon at Al Oeming's famous Alberta Game Farm. There are ap- proximately 4000 animals living there in 1500 acres. Each year it takes about 100,000 bales of hay and 1,500 sheep to feed the lions, tigers etc. After leaving Edmonton they found the drive through Jasper and Banff National Parks of- fered exceptional views of the mountains and the cold, green, glacier-fed lakes. Murray and Roba then travelled along a forestry trunk road which took them up to an elevation of 7300 feet where there was snow along the roadsides. Coming down into the foothills, they saw cattle grazing openly along the roadsides. Texas gates and boundry fences stopped the cat, tle from crossing to the next property, Alberta they found has much natural beauty with an abun- dance of wild flowers such as the wild rose and the bright orange Indian Paiabush. They were also delighted to see such wild animals as mountain sheep and goats, moose deer and bears. While in Alberta, Murray and Robe enjoyed the hospitality of Jerry and Brenda Lobb of Edmonton and Joe and Trudy McKinnon of Hinton, Marilyn Forbes, Paul, Ricky and Brad and Norene Tebbutt and Gary spent a few days at Port Huron. We are happy to report that Joan Crawford is home from the hospital and improving every day. Herb Oakes returned from a holiday to the west only to spend a few days in the Clinton Hospital. He is home and feeling much better now. Brian Lobb decided to take part in the 4-H exchange this year from July 15th to 22. He was the guest of Dean Boyd'of South Mountain, 40 miles west of Ottawa, in Dundas County. Dean returned by train with Brian on July 22 and spend a week at the Lobb home. This was a very rewarding ex- perience for Brian and his family. We were sorry we had to take Dean to Stratford to catch the train home on the 29th. Don and Marilyn Forbes, Brad, Lisa, and Lori went north for a short trip. They visited Santa's Village. WATER SAFETY Is is dangerous to swim atone--anywhere, anytime. Always swim with a buddy, and if possible at times when a lifeguard' is on duty. Sunburn is no laughing mat- ter for the victim, neither is heat exhaustion or sunstroke. At one time or another most of us have stayed out in the sun and heat too.. long and' suffered for it, A little first aid 'know how' can usually prevent the distress from developing into a serious condition. If your day of suntanning makes your skin feel on fire and yOu're nauseated, dizzy and feverish, you need some first. aid fast. Here is an effec- tive treatment recommended by the Ontario Safety League. Fill a bathtub with tepid water (body temperature) and dissolve a medium-sized package of corn starch in it. A half hour of soaking in • this , solution will usually dissipate body heat., relieving the intense burning, nausea and dizziness. For small sunburned areas, try soaking the burn in cold water or applying cold, moist compresses until the pain ceases. The victim of heat, exhaustion will have a pale face with cold, clammy sweat, His pulse will he weak. He may have a headache, feel dizzy and nauseated, start vomiting and may progress to abdominal cramps, collapse and uncon- sciousness, Al. the first sign of illness the victim should be placed in a cool. spot and, if conscious, given salted water to drink; (one half teaspoon of salt to two tumblers of water), If the condition worsens, it could develop into a heat stroke. The face is now flushed, the skin hot. and dry, the pulse full and bounding and the tem , perature rises rapidly. This must be brought down to not lower than 102° F. The victim must be placed in a cool place, his clothing removed and his First Aid for too much summer sun DR. A'S MINI-TALES The Fat Princess
