I think that in adopting a child YOU will do an act by

AS to h risk IN FUR when ne adopts a child, that's n of the
chances of lIe ;; Raising a child Is 10 cut-and.dned proposition even with
parents, and probably quite as many adopted children grow up into
is greater, for the adopted child is apt to be better reared and less spirited
than their own child. @&
OF course, would like to know something of the heredity of the
child adopts and be ue that it came of decent, honest people, hut
one may even put the soft pedal o that. Not many poor children have
an unbIemished pedigree, and W e all have relatives that we would hats

cradle to you, you are quite within your rights to strike out
for yourself and win your own share of ease and happiness.

Besides. environment is so much more powerful
blood that you can come pretty close to making any
what you will if you get it young enough, and take
trouble to train it in the way it should go.
And there's probably no other investment in the "
that pays such dividends in happiness as does the money
work we put in on a child. 1t gives a new pep and int
