He is in good health and wears glasses for nearsightedness. French Canadian in descent, A rtmand speaks both French and English, so he could fit into a home where either language is spoken. A bilingual family would be ideal, but most vital is a family full of warmth and love. Armand lacks confidence in himself so the best thing for him would be if he can become somebody's cherished son in a setting where he will have brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents. With all those people to love him he will certainly begin to feel he is a worthwhile person. Armand is a slow learner, now in opportunity class. He is. Joing better this year than ever before and will take an occupations course in high school. He works well in school - with a keen interest in woodworking, his ambition is to be a carpenter. Th ough he has been a loner, Armand has recently joined Scouts where he thoroughly enjoys the program and the association with other boys. Since Armand gets on well with children of all ages, he can fit into a family as the oldest, the youngest or somewhere in the middle. To inquire about adopting Armand, please write to Today's Child, Ministry of Community and Social Services, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2.

POST,, APRIL 30- 1975 (Continued from Page 18) "I am convinced that the form of Communism that is now taking over Viet Nam and Cambodia, is far different than the type of which we normally think. "In fact, he felt that it was the best alternative to the corruption that now exists in these countires. Ws can have no idea of what goes on, he said, and thus it will take a "puritanical, highly-disciplined group" to overcome it. Hie concluded, however, that great good will eventually come after a five to ten year period of Communist domination.The people will one day develop their own government and future. Officials are worried. Parents are lax. Not enough children are being immunized against contagious diseases. Without the proper protection, epidemics can sweep like fire through dry tinder.Ten years ago, 85 'percent of children in the one-to-four-year age group received all three does of the polio vaccine.By 1973, the figure had dropped to 60 percent. Waiting until they're in school may be too late for some, as we remember when polio was known as infantile paralysis. The preschoolers are most vulnerable, so we really must reach them. The percentage of young children being immunized against measles, rubella, mumps, diptheria, tetanus, and other diseases is falling off. So are rates for vaccination against whooping cough, another serious threat to youngsters. Tuberculosis tends to be forgotten in the crush. Anyone, including children, can have TB without knowing it and be spreading it to others. Everyone should ahve a tuberculin skin test Officer's Conference.
