He is a very energetic boy and so delighted with the agility develop- ing as he grows that he runs all over and climbs on everything in sight. He is beginning to talk and he has eight teeth with two more coming. He is in excellent health except for intermittent eczema which you may be able to see. It affects only his face and responds well to special ointment. Robby's background is Welsh, French and Negro. He is sturdily built with blue eyes, red hair and fair skin. His foster family say he's fun to have around because he's such an entertaining little fellow. He loves other children but is able to play happily alone as long as he has his toy telephone. To inquire about adopting Robby, please write to Today's Child, Department of Social and Family Services, Parliament Buildings, Toronto 182.
