Gary is 17 months old, a lovable little boy who needs
to be adopted so he can grow up with parents of his own.
Of Italian -Scottish -English descent, he is a tall, sturdy,
well built young fellow with lovely dark eyes, fine light
brown hair and clear olive skin. He is in excellent health
except for the occasional attack of tonsillitis. He sleeps
well and has a splendid appetite. Gary is a good-natured
child with a sunny personality. He's friendly and loves
attention but is not demanding and can amuse himself
happily with his toys. Though he is a really robust child
and very active, he is most affectionate and still likes to
be cuddled. He needs warm, demonstrative parents
who will appreciate a lively, sociable little son. To
inquire about adopting Gary please write to Today's
Child, Department of Social and Family Services, Par-
liament Buildings, Toronto S. For general information
about adoption ask your local Children's Aid Society.
