TODAY'S CHILD BY HELEN ALLEN A a Ee SH SRE THE TORONTO SUN synpicaTte When a boy is 13 and does not know what is ahead for him, he especially needs a family of his own. That is how it is with Brian. This tall, handsome boy un- derstands about adoption. He has seen other children go from his foster home to adoption homes and has always wished it would happen for him. But Brian has not given up hope of fin- ding permanent parents. He is confident this is going to be the year. Anglo-Saxon in descent, Brian is a healthy, active boy with dark eyes, brown hair and olive skin glowing with healthy color. He has a pleasant personality and is generally co-operative. In a foster home where there are six boys, Brian has had plenty of opportunity to learn the give and take necessary to family living. Brian attends special classes for non-academically minded students. His favorite school subjects are crafts (he enjoys working with his hands) and gym. Though not a scholar, he has a good deal of general knowledge and is especially interested in space and electronics. Camp and cottage life appeal to Brian, both summer and winter. He is enthusiastic about most kinds of outdoor activities -- swimming, boating, fishing and snowmobiling. Brian needs a mother and father who will give him love and a feeling of belonging and who will be able to encourage him to become independent while not pressuring him for academic achievement. To inquire about adopting Brian, please write to Today's Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto. HE NEEDS A FAMILY
