ONLY TWO PEOPLE WORKING IN CANADA The population of Canada is 22 million, but there are several million over 65 years of age, leaving 15 million to do the work. People under 21 total 10 million, leaving 5 million to do the work. Two million are government employees, leaving three million to do the work. There are 500,000 in the Armed Forces, leaving 2500 to do the work. Deduct 500,000 provincial , municipal or city workers, leaving 1,000,00 to do the work. But there are 700,000 unemployed and 200,000 on welfare. So that leaves 100,000 to do the work. Now it may interest you to know that there are 80,000 people out of the country at any one time and 19,998 people in jail , so that leaves just two people to do all the work and, that's you and me, brother! And I'm getting tired of doing everything myself. So let's get with it!

TODAY'S CHILD BY HELEN ALLEN THE TORONTO SJ] sYnDICATE Even the loss of two front teeth hasn't spoiled Martin's good looks. Unlike some children who hate to let the gap show, Martin seems proud of it as his wide smile suggests. Maybe he realizes losing teeth is a sign of growing up. Martin is six, an appealing child of English, Scottish, Irish and French-Canadian descent. He is slightly built with wide-set blue eyes, light brown hair and fair skin. His only health problem is an allergy to penicillin. Outgoing Martin craves affection. He is very sensitive to the feelings of the people in his life -- he knows if they are happy or sad and especially how they feel towards him, even if those feelings are not'put into words. He is responsive to warmth and gentleness. Martin is an active youngster who likes riding his bicycle and skating. He loves animals, especially elephants, and he looks for all the animal programs on television. He enjoys picture books, music and Disney movies. Martin is in Grade one and is not expected to excel academically. This youngster has suffered a number of rejections in his short life so he needs the warmth and assurance that he is wanted and loved. He should be the youngest in a family where the parents are relaxed, understanding and involved. To inquire about adopting Martin, please write to Today's Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto. For general adoption in- formation, ask your Children's Aid Society. HE NEEDS LOVE
