The Brussels Post, 1973-03-07, Page 3MOWS :CHILD BY HELEN ALLEN SHE'S HAPPY AND CHATTY Tammy was five before she could talk. Now at eight, soon-to-be nine, she is a real chatterbox. Tammy has been attending 'a school for the retarded but is now in a special class in the regular school. She will con- tinue to need special classes. Tammy will do her best there for she is a: determined child who perseveres with anything she tries to do and is proud of her achievements. A pretty girl, tall for her age, Tammy has brown eyes, dark hair, medium complexion and rosy cheeks. She is very nearsighted but otherwise in good health. Lovable Tammy gets on well with other children and is attentive to and protective over a toddler •in her foster home. She is normally happy and has developed a good amount of self-confidence in a foster home where she feels she is warmly accepted. Tammy likes to sing, alone or with others, and enters enthusiastically into all the group activities at school. She is fond of books with pictures. Tammy has learned to skate and is taking swimming lessons. She is becoming interested in domestic affairs and enjoys helping her foster mother. Tammy needs a family who will appreciate her lovable sweet personality and will not be concerned over academic achievement. It will be ideal if there are older brothers and sisters to take an interest in her and for, her to admire.

When I Was about ten years old I began • trapping rabbits by snare and box trap for food. Money was very scarce so decided to trap .fur bearing animals, including Sktin ks (commonly known as pole, • - cats") and to 'sell the fur for ChristniaS money. I was able to obtain a few traps. It rained the first night I had them set and my mother remarked it was a good night' for skunks. Sure enough, one of the ferSt traps I visited held a cat." • never having caught one before decided to get a little doter, Using his only defense, hiS scent, he tet have it ,tight in the face, I got -hoine, my mother , scrubbed me with strong lye soap and put ihne dean dkitheti then walked the trite to which contained only one town:, When I went in nil the pupils held their noses.'
