This story was supposed to have
been written after the United

she misplaces her sympathy, and

Baby Ethel Lucille wants a home
and some one to love her. There is
no baby in the world who needs love
and affection more than she does, and
she needs all these things right now.
She hasn't very much vision 1--WE
have every reason to believe she. will
have more when she is order), but she
is showing a lot of intelligence and
pluck for a 5-months- baby, and
she is bravely doing her part by reach
ing out and responding to every bit
of love and affection shown her.
ANY student Of child life would find
it most interesting to watch the vary
ing expression fit over her little face
when she hears a loved voice, and
waits for the touch of familiar hand.
She is a winsome bit of humanity,
pretty Iovable and sweet. Now don't
you think nature has endowed her with
enough wonderful qualities to over
come her handicap Of defective vision,
and If given the right sort of chance
on her journey through life, to become
a successful and happy member Of
society. We believe she will bring
sunshine into any home where loving
hearts and arms are open to her.
We do not ask any one to assume the
responsibility Of legal adoption, but
we do want a good home for her
where she will have an opportunity to
develop into a happy normal child.
Any one interested in Ethel Lucille
may learn more regarding her by ap-
plying to the Children's Home Society.
