FOSTER HOMES G


This is Foster Home Month. Open your home and your
heart to a child who has lost his own family.
In the first articles Of this series we attempted to des-
cribe what foster home care is. Today we will relate story
of one of our boys, Ronny, II, who is badly in need Of a fos-
ter home.
Ronny lives with his father and stepmother. His real
mother deserted when Ronny was yet a small baby. Until
the father remarked, Ronny lived with first one relative
and then another, never having a home he could call his own,
The stepmother rejects him, brutalizes him, and cares for
him inadequately. He is forced to perform chores far too
heavy for a boy of II. Fo rthese reasons he is nnalnourishedf
and underWeight, which has resulted in disqualification sever
al times. Ronny needs kindness, love and the affection of a
mother. He needs someone to prepare wholesome meals for
him and to see that he gets the proper rest a boy his age
needs A foster home will help Ronney very much during
these next few years while he is growing up. Will you be
the one to give Ronny and other children like him an OPP
Iportunity to find this happiness?
For detailed information a Sto how you can help Ronnv
and other children like him, please contact Mrs. Evalyne
Baylor, Division of Child Welfare.

1856 CARNIVAL


PLANS ARE well under way for the Carnival to be held
in St. Thomas next month. If last years carnival is any mdi-
cation of things to come, these Islands are in for some excel
lent publicity and an opportunity to capitalize upon it no end.
IT IS GOOD that there are such things for they bring
about a change in the set pace of life, add color and enthu-
siasm, and provoke ideas which otherwise would go unchal-
lenged. And as time passes more and better ideas will come
to the fore until these festive days will be works Of art Of
which all will be extremely proud, and which the world will
want to come and see, and share.
ST THOMAS HAS everything for the making of a fine
carnival. 1t is highly concentrated, the harbor is excellent,
transportation is practically unlimited, and there is a cosmo-
politan touch to its very way Of life-al of which mesh into
the type Of pattern most suited to the Carnival.
BUT T.CROX can take advantage of its opportunities
in this regard. It can and should participate to the fullest
extent possible. Before and after the carnival many visitors
will want to see what the other islands offer, and once here
there is the chance for rest and relaxation. PubGcty-wise the
opportunities are just as great to get the name OF St. Groix
in the headlines for while there is really no competition, we
should use our tourist facilities to its fullest.
NEEDLESS TO SAY that everyone is pulling for the
best carnival, and doing more than just wishing Everyone
is willing to make whatever contribution he can, and there
are opportunities in this direction also. And when the time
comes, as was the case last year, the air lanes will be busy
with the traffic back and forth.
