Even while they remain in Waterloo they are well occupied. A summer‘s afternoon ‘might find them in the park swimming, or on a picnic. Slides, swings, tricycles and what have you are enjoyed to the full. Parents, to the best of their ability, pay for their child‘s keep. The province and Waterloo counâ€" ty give grants each year. Because of the high cost of living and some large expenditures, part of the caâ€" pital has had to be spent. The grounds at the rear of the house have been paved recently to make a good play area. A new stove and boiler have been installed. Therefore, the councils of the Twin Cities are being approached for assistance. Sometimes this isn‘t .necessary because money, which people have provided for{ in their wills, is received. . This house, like yours or mine, isn‘t run without money. The anâ€" nual budget crowds $16,000. For instance, food of the most wholeâ€" some variety, costs about $4,000 per yeer. _ Miss Dankert and her staff are responsible for every phase of the ‘child.ren’s lives. This means home work, report cards, and numerous other things. They don‘t admit that their work is particularly noâ€" ble, although they do enjoy it. However, at a recent Home and School Club meeting, the princiâ€" pal introduced the teachers. Then after asking Miss Dankert to stand, he commented upon the splendid work being done. When Miss Dankert was quesâ€" tioned regarding the summer she chuckled. ‘"Well, there‘s often a Vacation Bible School, sponsored by ‘a church," she said. ‘"When one is over it is time to send the children on to the next. How they enjoy them! And so much which is of value is learned." The children‘s bed time is govâ€" erned by their ages. They go without any fuss too. Thus ends the day. _ At meals one staff member sits at each table. All the likes and dislikes of the children create quite a problem. One likes desâ€" sert; the other eats only the first course. The staff try to fet the children to like every of food by giving them just a bit of each. A day‘s schedule is full indeed. The children get up at seven. They do their household duties, eat breakfast, and have Bible reaâ€" ding and family prayer. With their departure for school the inâ€" tense activity ceases until dinner time. _ Who looks after all these chilâ€" dren? The matron for the past nine years has been Miss Lydia Dankert. She now heads an effiâ€" cient staff of nine, plus one lady who mends and sews periodically. Of course, the children are trained to bel{) too. They wash the brightly colored plastic dishes, set the table for the next meal, and make their beds. who are in dire need because of the housing shortage are taken in. Perhaps a child‘s mother is sick and there is absolutely no one to look after him. Victims of broken marriages find a home. Just reâ€" cently two D.P. children have come. Some children remain only a few weeks while others stay maâ€" ny years. High school graduation finds the odd person still in resiâ€" dence.

This may be a safeguard, because if we were successful in wiping out the fox, it might upset the balance of nature and the animals that the fox keeps in check might do unâ€" ‘tjold damage, contends Mr. Meaâ€" ows. _ The fox den tells the story of the birds and animals that have been killed by the fox.

The farmer who allows his poulâ€" try to run at large during May and June is taking a chance on the fox killing large numbers, as the parent fox has to feed its young at this time. The fox has been known to kill as many as 25 chickens in one raid. The red fox is considered a deâ€" structive animal in a farming community where poultry . is raisedâ€"but he‘s also considered helpful..
