TODAY'S CHILD BY HELEN ALLEN i i THE TORONTO SUJN] sYNDICATE With that searching look, Donald seems to be asking what in the world the photographer is up to. It is not an unusual ex- pression for Donald because this youngster is always curious. Donald is an appealing, healthy lad of white and Indian descent. He is tall for one who has just had his seventh birthday, and sturdily built, with brown eyes, dark hair and dark skin. He wears glasses for near-sightedness but like most small boys prefers to leave them off. This young fellow's early development was uneven. In some ways he seemed very intelligent -- at three he knew the alphabet and colors. In other ways he was extremely backward so that the Children's Aid Society doctors suspected he might have sustained brain damage at birth. However, recent exhaustive tests at the Hospital for Sick 'Children produced a happy verdict: There is no brain damage and he has good intelligence. In school Donald has been under average but is beginning to achieve. He is doing some Grade one work this year. Donald is friendly, outgoing, impulsive and active. He enjoys working with his hands and has a limitless imagination. Donald needs energetic parents who will give him love, un- derstanding, stimulation and the security of having a home and mother and father of his own. i To inquire about adopting Donald, please write to Today's Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto. For general adoption in- formation, please contact your Children's Aid Society. ALWAYS CURIOUS A hl a i Ss SES
