Mrs. C.A. McCarrrol Addresses :Group
This thoughtful boy is Jon, 11 years old and Oneida Indian
in descent. Jon is a handsome lad, as you see, with sparkling
brown eyes, black hair and medium complexion.
Jon is healthy, and active, interested in vigorous contact
sports. He plays floor hockey and soccer and he's keen on
judo. In summer he plays baseball. He seizes every opportunity
to go hunting and fishing. His favorite reading is stories about
famous sportsmen.
An average student in Grade 6, Jon has the potential to be
above average. His special interests are electricity and science.
As a Cub, Jon is always working to earn new badges. The
latest is for cooking.
Busy as he is, Jon has given a lot of thought to his future.
He wants very much to have a home of his own with parents
who are outdoors enthusiasts. He would be very happy to have
older brothers. Farm life appeals to him, but he admits there
are attractive features about living in town, as long as there
is scope for sports and general outdoor activity.
He will be a rewarding son for warm, understanding parents
who will realize Jon will need time to realize he is really part
of a family. To inquire about adopting•Jon, please write to
Today's Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto. For general
adoption information ask your Children's Aid Society.

From the bridge, one of those
cold frosty mornings last week,
we observed some ducks cavort-
ing happily in open water. They
were almost entirely surrounded
by ice but appeared to be
thoroughly enjoying their
morning swim in the icy water
of the Maitland.

A Science Fair will be an
interesting portion of activities at
Brussels Public School next
week. This special attraction
will feature various exhibits on
March 15th. Parents and many
other persons will not want to
miss this display of the student's
accomplishments in this
particular field of study.

What a difference these days
in the winter recreation of young
people to what we enjoyed when
this writer was young. True it
was a long time ago, but I still
remember with pleasure the
happy times we enjoyed. No
Smiles
snowmobiles then, no travelling
to other places by motor car to
attend a movie, very little skiing
in those days, and on the nights
when the blizzards raged, no
television to watch. Neverthe-
less we had fun, toboggan par-
ties, with a wiener roast around
a fire in a sheltered spot to
warm us up after tumbles in the
snow. Snowshoe hikes, when
we tramped for miles to end
up at someone's home for hot
soup and a moccasin dance.
When the winter winds blew icy
cold and the blinding snow drove
us indoors there were impromptu
house parties with taffy pulls
and games. When we couldn't
venture beyond our own homes,
there was always a good book to
enjoy and pleasant happy times
with our own family. Times
sure have changed.
