Nearly a Thousand Christmas
Babies in New Jersey Adopted

but 1t is seldom that they go away
without a kiddie, even though they
have to take one with a snub nose or
eyes of the wrong color.
Often something comes up to delay
the transfer of the babies to their new
homes. but the foster parents think
that Christmas is not complete with
out a kid in the house and they are
not content to be blocked by any
ordinary thing. Richard, a youngster
of nearly 2 years, was to have been
turned over to his new home ten days
ago, but he developed regulation chick
enpox and 1t was not until an ardent
appeal from his new mother had
caused DR.. Robert Stewart, the boards
physician, to conclude that Dick was
again as we'll and sound as could be
that it was decided to let him glory
in the maze of the Christmas tree
candles on schedule time.
BY tonight there will remain in the
almshouse only fourteen children, all
of whom are very young or feeble
minded, and these will be taken out
