They really ' thought of everything— uniform, tests, camp, patrol names—and we are certain that in this first patrol which the Founder was to see, there would be tw„o favourite expressions— Linda Johnston's "Yeah!" and Marilyn Frayne's "Oh Boy, What fun!" The Swallow patrol • gave its version of the Crystal Palate rally with Carol Gibbons as Lord Baden - Powell, Roxanne Beavers and Bonnie Turvey as Scouts, Marg Howey as a Guide and Donna Ersman her captain, The pay-off came when Marg asked Donna who was going to be the head of the Guides if B -P was head of the Scouts. Donna's answer came quite non- chalantly: "Oh her," pointing to Carol who was B -P, "Her or him; he or she!" We all ended up laughing anyway.

We want to •thank all the ladies who pat- ronized it. While the Guides had absolutely nothing to do with the tea, we do benefit from it as the object of our local associa- tion is to raise money for the Brownies and Guides and their share of upkeep of the Scout Hall. It's very encouraging for Guide and Brownie leaders to know there is .a group of interested workers behind us. Such an ac- tive organization can help us do a better job of training children to become better citizens.

Homes are needed for these children now. Because of their age, religion, racial origin or a physical handicap, homes are not easy to find. Security for these children will come from a permanent home. This program does not apply to infants, since the demand for them far exceeds the number of infants available for adoption. If you are a.married couple interested in applying for the adoption of an older or handicapped child, you should be under 45 years of age. You must be in good health and financially capable of caring for the child's future. Your personal character, homemaking ability and capacity to meet the heeds of a child 'requiring special care are important factors in the placement of these children. • Applications for adoption of the follow- ing children—and other older or handicapped children—should be directed to the Minister of Public Welfare, Parliament Buildings, Toronto, Ontario. Typical of the children seeking permanent adoption homes: • A pretty little blonde Protestant girl who to 4 years old. She needs a good home and patient, understanding parents . . . because she is a spastic and must wear a brace on one leg. Fortunately, her chances of SOMediY walking without a brace are promising. But she has to attend a therapy class every week, se she must be in a home near a dinic. This' little girl's greatest need nqw is for love And affection as part of a permanent farnily. • Two good-looking brothers who are 8 and 9 years old. They are Roman Catholic, able ta speak both English And French. Both boy. have brown hair and eyes . . . with bright personalities to match their healthy physique& They need a good, permanent home where they can be accepted together as part of the family.
