THE TORONTO SIU] SYNDICATE Ross is expected to do well in Grade five this year. Normally this would not be news for a ten-year-old but it is important for Ross because until not long ago he was in opportunity class. Soon after a move to a new foster home he went into the regular Grade four class and was promoted with average marks. Ross enjoys school and his last teacher reports he was helpful in class and joined in all activities. She mentioned especially creative drama, drawing and painting. The latter he does outside school as well as in. A psychologist who tested Ross says he may have above average potential. This good-looking boy of Ukrainian and German descent, has dark eyes, brown hair and medium complexion. He is keen on outdoor activity -- baseball, fishing, camping, hockey, riding his bike. He also likes to strum on a guitar. Ross is very fond of animals and conscientious about taking care of them. He would love to have a dog. Ross understands adoption and is anxious to have a family of his own. But he is a sensitive lad, lacking self-confidence, and he cannot help wondering if this dream will ever come true. Likeable and eager to please, Ross needs an easy-going relaxed family who will create an atmosphere that is both stimulating and non-pressuring and who enjoy lots of activities. He is accustomed to other children and could fit in anywhere among brothers and sisters. To inquire about adopting Ross, please write to Today's Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto. For general adoption information, ask your Children's Aid Society. DREAMING OF A FAMILY
