BY HELEN ALLEN
READY FOR A FAMILY
Donny looks
he is.
A lot of illness in his 14 months tested Ms temperament
as he was in and out of hospital for treatment and tests, and
of course, this delayed his opportunity for adoption. Now
some of his troubles are over and others are dismissed as
minor so the Children's Aid Society feels he is ready to
become part of a family.
Anglo-Saxon in descent, Donny is an appealing baby with
beautiful reddish-blond curly hair, big brown eyes and a
delightful smile that shows at least some of his six teeth.
When Donny feels . well, he is happy, contented cuddly
boy who laughs a lot and loves to hear his own voice squealing.
He enjoys other children and is fascinated by small babies.
Donny has developed more slowly than normal and is
functioning from two to five months below his age. This
pattern is expected to continue.
His left arm and leg do not appear to be growing as fast
as the right. Otherwise they are normal and the difference
is barely noticeable. He may need surgery later on his left
foot but this will not be known for a year.
Donny has had a number of infections and has been tested
for hydrocephalus (build-up of fluid inside the skull). There
is no evidence of this but he is to have regular checks for a
time - just in case.
Donny's problems do not mean that he requires more care
than a normal, healthy child, but he does love attention. He
eats and sleeps well and is on a regular diet. He can enter-
tain himself and prefers to have company.
Heart-touching Donny needs parents who can take his
medical history in their stride and whose academic expec-
tations are not high.
To inquire about adopting Donny, please write to Today's
Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto. For general adoption
information, please contact your local Children's Aid Society.

Discuss farming in India
Correspondent
Mrs. Mac Engel
The February meeting of the
Afternoon Group of the W.M.S.
was held at the home of the presi-
dent, Mrs. Earl Dunn with seven
members and one visitor present.
•The leader, Mrs. Wilfred
Strickler opened the meeting with
a reading and "The Lord's my
Shepherd" was sung. The new
Book of Praise was used and
Miss Alice J. Forrest was
pianist. Scripture passages from
Hebrews and Isaiah were read
by Mrs. Dunn and Mrs. Stanley
Fischer with the meditation by
Mrs. Strickler. The roll call
was a verse containing "serve".
Mrs. Clare Veitch introduced the
study on India with her topic
"Cultural Bridges". Famine is
rampant and law suits mar church
relations. A' current news item
read "Indian farmers eat" dust
in drought. Storage and trans-
portation is not always the best
so all foodstuffs do not reach
them. India is the largest de-
mocracy in the word and only
two per cent are Christian. One
sixth of the population in the
world is Indian and there are
over five' hundred people per
square mile. Seventy per cent
are illiterate but are improving.
Their income is seventy-six dol-
lars for one year, they have one
Inspection
clears arena
A complete inspection of
Brussels arena carried out last
week by a representative of Burns
Ross Associates, a Goderich
engineering firm, indicated the
building to be in excellent shape,
Reeve J. L. McCutcheon said
Tuesday.
A written report confirming
the findings will come forward
to council.
Ken Dunn who carried out
the inspection said the only de-
terioration which had been identi-
fied during the Christmas holi-
days had already been repaired,
Reeve McCutcheon said.
How much
does an
egg weigh?
Food specialists are fre-
quently asked what size egg re-
presents the best buy.
The best egg buy depends upon
the season and supplies. When
the new flocks start laying, small
eggs are usually in heavy supply.
There is a period when medium
eggs are plentiful, and then the
large eggs follow.
Since eggs are actually sold
by weight, cost perounce may
be worked out tcshelp you de-
cide which size is most econo-
mical at any specific time. The
minimum Weight for a' dozen
extra -large eggs is 27 ounces;
for large, 24 ounces; for mediurn
21 ounces; and for small, 18
ounces.
Food specialists generally
agree that a 7 cent spread be-
tween sizes will give approxi-
mately equivalent price per pound
for any size. For example;
if the difference in price of
large and medium eggs is more
than 7 cents a dozen, the medium
eggs would be your best food
buy.
doctor for every five thousand
people, and India has one quar-
ter of the worlds' cattle.
Their film industry is the second
largest in the world. We were
asked to watch the paper each
day for something onIndia. Their
top government official is a
woman and other prominent po-
sitions are filled by women. India
has a very proud heritage which
we forget and at one time was
one of the most affluent nations
in the world. Mrs. Veitch told
of their music, art, buildings tee.
and made use of a library book
on India which added to the in-
terest of her very interesting
topic. "Other Hymns sung were
"God has given us a book full
of stories and "Take up thy cross
the. Saviour said." Mrs. Dunn
served refreshments.
