As you see, he is a very good-looking boy with big blue eyes, silky brown hair and a light tan complexion. He is usually quite sober when meeting strangers but on closer acquaintance reveals a delightful grin, accompanied by loud squeals and an infectious chuckle. Hendrick sleeps soundly and has a good appetite, as you'd guess from his well-nour- ished look. Initial0 he was a colicky infant, but is now healthy, relaxed and contented, a delightful member of a household. This happy baby needs parents who will appreci- ate his heritage and will provide a loving, stimulating home. To inquire about adopting Hendrick please write to Today's Child, Department of Social and Family Services, Parliament Buildings; Toronto 182. For general information about adoption ask your Iocal Children's Aid Society. MacDonalds? Earl Douglas, a former Clinton resident now living in London, Ont., seeks information about a MacDonald family in this area in the latter part of last century and the early 1900s, Duncan Ross MacDonald, Mr. Douglas says, is reported as owning land on the banks of the Maitland River in the Clinton area perhaps in the period of 1870-85. His father, Donald, died at Hyde Park in 1879 and his grandfather, James, was buried at Brucefield in 1856. It is believed he was a cousin of Dr. Peter MacDonald who was MP for Wineham in 1887 and an uncle of the noted Rev. J. A. lvlacuonald, editor of the Globe and Mail in 1903-1917 and who died in 1923. We'll be glad to forward any replies or put respondents in touch with Mr. Douglas.

The second daily Power mower can be, either an ally or foe Your power lawn mower can change from a trusty ally to a deadly foe if a few safety rules are not observed. Oscar Snyder, Safety Co-ordinator, Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food, has some suggestions that will, help prevent the lawn mower from getting out of hand. Remove stones and pieces of wood and metal from lawn before you start to cut. A power mower won't run over these objects - it will hurl them off to one side with enough force to cause serious injury. Keep children at a safe distance from the machine. When making adjustments to the motor, pull out the electric cord, or take the wire off the spark plug. This is the cheapest insurance against personal harm. If your mower is gas -powered, avoid smoking, when refuelling or when the motor is hot, •and only fill the tank outdoors. double paid $17,90.
