TODAY'S CHILD BY HELEN ALLEN ,. ETRE THE TORONTO SUN] synpicATE HE WANTS A PET Here is a 10-year-old who fits admirably into the way of life chosen by so many young people nowadays. Peter likes the simple things -- planting seeds, growing flowers, tending a garden, gathering eggs, building things. Peter's skills are along these lines, rather than academic ones. He is attending opportunity class. Though Peter will not be a scholar, the psychologist who tested him says there is some potential for improvement if he receives personal attention and stimulation. He is a good-natured, polite boy who lacks self-confidence. He accepts responsibilities willingly and is conscientious about doing chores, such as feeding the chickens at his foster home. He likes to be involved with some adult in a project. Being fond of animals, Peter would love to have a pet of his own to care for. He is looking forward to attending a camp this summer. Just now, his great interest is flying kites. _ This healthy, stocky lad has 'fair skin, light brown hair and dark eyes. He wears glasses for astigmatism. Peter very much needs a family who will not expect academic prowess, but will want to explore and help him develop his in- teresgs to the limit of his potential. There should be no other children close to him in age, so the parents will have a lot of time to devote to Peter. To inquire about adopting Peter, please write to Today's Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto. For general adoption in- formation write vour Children's Aid Society.
