Mrs. H. (. Thompson
 Aide British Boys

For the past two years Mrs. Hugh l.. ThompEon of Pine street, has been caring for three British boys, all fourteen years of age, through the Foster Parents Plan for War Children, it was announced by Mrs. Edna Blue, Plan executive chair. man.
 The first child under Mrs. Thompson's care was Arthur Leon. ard Mundin; the second child Thomas Booth, and the third Cyril Omer. The childrcn's case histories follow:
 Arthur was born and brought up in SlulI1 clearance area; his family is large and very poor. His father is with the Royal Ftisiliers, and his small allowance was not enough to maintain the home. Their section of the city was hit hard by the 'blitz' and for the safety of the chil- dren Arthur and two of his brothers were sent to one of the colonies. He remained with the colony until his mother was able to get a we'll paying position and set Up her home in Q safe area.
 Thomas was Mvi.ig in Coventry before he came to our Colony: there he had witnessed death and destruction and had seen things children find hard to forget. Thomas father died many years ago and the child remembers no- thing of him; the mother has done her best to carry on but the raid on Coventry was too much there. fore Thomas was brought to the colony. Here he remained until he was old enough to obtain employ. ment; he got @ job as Q builders mate and was able to contribute sufficient amount Of money so that the family could be once again joined together.
 Cyril Omer came to the Colony from the city of Hull which was bombed time and again. During the blitz the home was destroyed; some repairs were made, and the father and mother live there once more, although the house is not quite whole. Cyril is happy at the Col- Ony as he is now safe and well cared for.
 Life at the Poster Parents col. onleS has been arranged in such Q way as to help the children forget what they have been through. It is slow, painful work but the staff members are sure that they will succeed.
