Howick bingo winner, TO AY'S CHILD
BY HELEN ALLEN
HE LOVES BASEBALL
Baseball is Bobby's passion so he is extremely proud
of the trophy he is holding. The cup was presented to him
for being the “best ever" bat boy for a team of older boys,
but Bobby plays his favorite game as well as giving ser-
vice to it.
Bobby is 9, slender, healthy and active, with brown eyes
and reddish brown, slightly curly hair. His fair skin freckles
in the summer. Because of flat feet he needs to wear sturdy
shoes but his mobility is not affected at all. Next to base-
ball he likes camping.
This lad Is attending special education, classes. He is
average in intelligence although his performance in schools
is not yet up to par, probably because of lack of stimulation
in his early years. But Bobby is observant, interested in
and inquistive about a number of things, particularly the
exploration of space. He Seizes every opportunity to learn
about outer space, the planets, spaceships and astronauts,
and watches for television programs on those themes.
Bobby needs the certainty of knowing that he is wanted
and loved. The ideal home for him will be one where the
mother and father are consistent in their handling of child-
ren, where youngsters are encouraged to talk about their in-
terests and their feelings, and where there will not be com-
petition for the parents' attention.
To inquire about adopting Bobby, please write to To-day's
Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto. For general adoption
information, please contact your local Children's Aid Soc-
iety.
Fall seed collections
The fall of the year is the
time when the seed of most
species of trees and shrubs
mature. Much of the seed pro-
duced is utilized as food by
birds, mammals and insects, but
some matures and reaches the
ground to germinate and pro-
duce new plants of the part-
icular species in the spring.
To establish new forests by
artificial regeneration requires
a sizeable quantity of nursery
grown seedlings as well as seed
for direct seeding. Seed to meet
reforestration needs must be col-
lected loftily since seedlings
must be planted within the re-
gion of the seed collection.
Each fall the local Minis--
try division offices in Owen
Sound, Wingham and Hespeler
contract With interested pickers
to supply quantities of seed of
various species. Major emph-
asis in terms of volume have
been for black walnut Seed. Ap-
proximately 800 hectoliters
(2,200 bushels) of seed of this
Species has been shipped from
this District to the nursery at
St. Williams, this fall.
In addition, the offices have
Collected and shipped to the Ont-
ario Seed Extraction Plant at
Angus, approximately 30 hecto-
literS (30 bushels) of Jack pine
cones. Lesser quantities of
white ash, black locust and bass-
Wood teed and European larch
and tamarack cones Were also
shipped to the-seed plant.
